Can i ask some advice how would you rate a dishwasher thinking of getting one as with two wee ones a part time teenager (he lives with DAD so here at weekends hols etc) DH and myself we seem to always having dirty dishes ! ? Have caught DH leaving the tap running while he washes the dishes as he will rinse of every plate after washing them.

After snowballing should be debt free by Mar 2016
2011 Target to be overdraft free this year and get debt down!0 -
Tebheag, we have a dishwasher, love it, however, everyone fights about who'll empty it. We now have a rota. I like the way it cleans and the fact that no dishes are in the sink/on the sides, lifes tidier
We put it on overnight on the cheap electric and buy value tablets for it and it works a treat.
Only my opinion though!Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
Total debt as of 28/4/19 £7867.38:eek:
minus 112.06 = £7755.32:money:

Silverburn is an indoor shopping centre off Junction 22 on the M77 motorway about 10-15 mins from Glasgow city centre.

As a teacher in England I still have 3 more weeks off thankfully!
Lucky you.Hi Cassidy- back to school for me too it's a thought. I will be fine when I get there
I'm going to go into Glasgow tomorrow for work stuff- however if this rain keeps up probably better going to braehead or silverburn.
happy shopping don't spent too much
Silverburn was rather busy with back to school shoppers. The Fort was quiet with the weather I suspect. Spends were within budget due to sales.

Silverburn has a good choice of shops. I still prefer the Fort though as I am east-end boy.Debt now £48,000 in the form of a mortgage
