    I will thanks ladies.

    Meal planned, went for pizza, worked my socks off, delivered kids to clubs and now collapsing into bed. Another AFD too :)

    A pretty productive weekend if I say so myself. Now about to kick into a manic 5 day run at work so wish me luck!

    Will pop in to try and keep me on the straight and narrow.

    Thanks all!! :)

    Surviving. Came home and threw chicken fajitas together - best scratch meal we can do. Kids all love it.

    OH still working. I am watching some TV but bed soon.

    Big news today is that we switched mortgage provider. So big big decrease in what we need to spend which is great. The only wrinkle is that we have to phone every time we want to make an overpayment. What a drag. But needs must. If that's their route it will not put me off overpaying. I will however top up the ISA first so we have a fallback.

    Hope everyone is well x

    Well done! Makes me laugh that they think by making it difficult we won't do it. Have they not come across the hard core mfw-ers :rotfl:

    Congratulations on the remortgage!

    How annoying about phoning up to make overpayments, that really would be a deal breaker for me! But I am antisocial :D
