    I'm pleased things are sounding good for you benben. :) I would still document everything anyway.

    Our home phone packed in a couple of months ago as well. Luckily, Mr Gap had an old phone which he didn't need so has given us that to be going on with. It does the job.

    Its definitely my lucky week this week ... another survey site has finally credited my points which has taken me to the payout level, so £50 on its way to me :T :T Finally the summer holiday challenge feels like its getting under way properly :D

    Ds mattress arrived about 20 minutes ago, so thats all made on his bed now, meaning we can go off to Legoland, not that the weather is looking great for it, I will do some housework first this morning and we'll probably head off in a couple of hours or so.

  • Woohoo ben ben, seems like luck is on your side at the minute, well done with the surveys and seeing the back of 2020, have a fab time at Legoland, weather is pants up north, was planning a trip to the beach with DS but its pouring it down, so we are watching spongebob instead.

    I have just realised I got too excited with the £50 payout from the survey site, and added it to the old inaccurate mortgage calculator, so having added it now to the accurate one it actually hasn't got rid of 2020 just yet :(:( Off to readjust the signature back again, but hopefully with the footie starting again tomorrow it won't take long to get there again :)
