Evening, well that was an interesting home coming. Neighbours on the doorstep, complaints about loud music, dancing until all hours, and much clanking of bottles whilst we were on holiday. They also mentioned a hippo skip on the drive full of empty bottles and cans :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Home safe and sound, amazing holiday, a few escapades and early night. Popped to the M&S in the local BP garage and came back with two packs of ham and cheese sandwiches for 50p. So that's the kids school lunches sorted it out. Lodger had left milk, eggs and potatoes, so dinner tomorrow will not be off the menu plan. I will make a huge omelette with potatoes, onion etc and serve with a salad from the garden.

Actually have £437 to pay into the bank and will whizz that to the mortgage. More discussions with Mr T whilst we were away. He has his eye on a car - bear in mind we are really not car nuts and I am quite happy with my (almost 115k) chug along - there is no way we could consider buying a new car until the mortgage has gone, so I am changing the end date to 31:12:15. This will put us under a little more pressure, will mean I have to make some changes, but that would allow us to save from January until May 2016 and buy a car with cash. I do understand that my old faithful may die before then, but that would be replaced with another chug along.

Nothing like tightening the screws a little just as we had got into a good routine - there will be more surveys, PC, eb@ying, car booting, and I am aiming for all birthdays/anniversaries/Christmas 2013 to be cost neutral :eek: Tall order but what's life without a few challenges along the way :beer:

Hope everyone one has had a safe and glorious bonfire night and best wishes, Tilly x x x

PS Re the party - it wasn't me GG did it and ran away.

Hi Fortune, GG seems to be a very disturbing influence :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Great to go away, but always lovely to come home :T.

I need to menu plan tomorrow evening, just remembered its November

Glad you had a nice holiday Tilly and all the best on your new MFW target - that will be a New Year's Eve party to remember!

Evening SD, goes to show how tired I am, I never even connected New Years Eve, but boy if we achieve it, all the Tilly's will be :T:T:T

Hope all is going well on the OH job hunting front, I'll pop over and catch up on your diary

Glad you're home safely .
