    Hi Bob, good luck with the ovedraft. I've been knocking mine down by 20 quid a week and it should be gone by September. Can then use that for another overdraft. It never stops.

    Bob, sorry about your tax woes - it really is insane, I'm sorry its not finished for you. Hope you can put it outof your mind this weekend.

    I know what you mean- it is Mr.B's OD but at the end of the day i am making him budget..i hope all this works out, it should have been gone last Christmas at the least.

    I sometimes feel like that little man who is constantly rolling the ball up the hill for it to fall to the start again...but not for much longer:D:rotfl:

    Good luck with yours Lucielle.:beer:

    Yes, the summer hols have provided me with lots of reading- well in all honesty i was subscribed anyway:whistle:, i read Cheri's and Pippi's as well:D
    The tax isn't a woe as such, just a bit irritating and will get sorted out- in fact the notice has been sent and no doubt that will change again when my next lot of paperwork hits it:o
