Yes have taken the advice on here and updated signature accordingly, both for overall amount and the CC I am going to hit first. I am hoping to be sub £13k by end of month and will throw all the Tilly tidies etc at the MB@A card which is currently the larger balance anyway. Only min payments and maybe a smidgen extra to Mr Branson's one.
Other good news..a NSD! And lots of updates from me and inspiration from the great diaries on here...have been very very chilled! Ace!

Hi Brizzle
I hope you are well. Well done on your NSD. I will need some of the soon I think !
I old prefer the thrill of hitting one then the other will be great to only have one left!
Sounds like you are having a lovely time away. We need to arrange a camping trip for August. I am tempted to stay in one of those wooden camping pods for a change to see what they are like. Will probably pop down to Cornwall.

Hi OF
Thanks for dropping by. Saw some great wooden pods when in NZ recently. Always look good but can be pricey. I prefer our van! But for a cheap break you can't beat a campsite!
Have a great weekMFiT-T4 Member No. 96 - 2022 is my MF goal

Hi folks
Must be a work night as am sitting in a hotel... But am drinking some wine and eating reasonably healthily! So...today has been a NSD for me but need to check in with OH. In the Brizzledfw world a NSD has to mean that neither of us buys anything if its to count as a NSD. Luckily this is work expenses.. And rightly so as another full on day! So busy and MSE have eaten cake rather than buy sandwiches! It was someone's birthday after all!:rotfl:
Back into OD but need to check if its just cash flow. OH has worked so hard on cleaning van and looking after kids and his work, deserves a medal.
Looking forward to pootling around diaries this eve and maybe watching some tennis :-)MFiT-T4 Member No. 96 - 2022 is my MF goal
