    Haha yeah I wish I'd been quicker to respond :rotfl:

    On the tax, can you work out a proxy % of each invoice to set aside going forward? It'll be somewhere below 40% (unless you're REALLY having a good year :p) but will obviously depend on the level of expenses you have, and where you land in the tax brackets. Helpful advice there, obviously...
    0% card was £1126.91 / Now £1502.37

    AFD March 2/15 NSD March 2/11 :T

    Other debts paid since 1/1/14: £17,005

    If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

    Thank you thank you lovely peeps. Sorry haven't been able to pop in much - no wifi where I am and lots of being out and about so not much time.

    Have a wonderful Christmas - and here's to a very successful MSE 2017 for us all :D

    Lots of love
