    All sounding good and very organised. Burger, chips and salad would be Mr SA's dream meal.

    Thanks all. Yes the ISA is a shining light in what is otherwise a grim Brizzle picture!!!

    The kids dream meal too SA and have to say a deep fat fryer (£10 from B&Q about 10years (more?) ago is fabulooos for chunky chips...yum :))

    Been cruising social media and YNAB...I know how to live!! But its free :rotfl:

    I have spent some money today though...now getting our milk in glass bottles (BP has a lot to answer for..but as live in city where it was created and delivered had to be done ;)) and paid the milkman upfront. Very exciting!

    Have a good Friday folks x

    Aha. Its great comment indeed statement. By the way Happy International Womens Day to everyone (men and women :))

    I have just worked out we own 72% of our house...now that is truly a great feeling. May push me onto trying to make some mortgage OPs....but we shall see as ISAs and EFs and all the other pots have their role to play too.
