One further suggestion; "Tilly's Tales of 309,000 Tiny Tidies"
Mine's would be; "Naughty Natty's Nuggets of Non Over Paying"
And GG's would be; "Oops I Did It Again - My Many (many) Mortgages"
I would read your blog tills, although would insist on photographs alsoFebruary13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)
MND - Let's go for 2020 'cos it's got a nice ring to it:D

This is fab Natty, who doesn't love a bit of clever alliteration :rotfl: I'd want to read all of them

Aw, thanks Natty, I've never been a regular poster but these days seem to be more of a lurker than a poster
Mind you, I've on a few days holidays so managed to do a few updates to my own diary today as well as a couple of posts on others
I'm five years into this now so just slogging away at it.
Just busy pondering opening another S&S ISA (not used that element of this years allowance yet) and also wondering whether to transfer all my share dealing stuff from EquIniti to [EMAIL="H@lifax"]H@lifax[/EMAIL] (I already have a shared dealing account with the latter)
Do any of you knowledgeable ladies (flatter, flatter) venture into S&S ISA's?
While I'm on the topic, what about SIPP's do any of you have them?
Regards

From memory, AJ Money has/had a very good return on her S&S ISA. Also Edinburgher is a whizz on all things financial ... saying that, I imagine both tilly and GG will have good advice.
(Unfortunately my financial capabilities are limited to thinking I've done well if I still have some coins to jangle by the end of the month)

Bank balance 0
Purse 1p (did have £2 but nipped out to get milk as mine had gone off :eek: and the local paper.
So, not enough to jangle.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0
