I have a twitter account but never use it. I can't think of anything to say. I'd worry that I'd be the sad person that tweeted about having a bath or something equally mundane:o
I frequently tweet about what songs I'm listening to, what games I'm playing, pictures of me trying to knit :rotfl: once you hit 30,000+ tweets sent you forget about what you're actually sending.
My Mam joined twitter just to follow the England cricket team and the Newcastle footballers
she doesn't tweet very often but she uses it to keep track of me and what I'm up to now I'm moved out as she refuses to use Facebook. HSBC CC - £3000 / £3000
Halifax CC - £1032.77 / £1032.77

Love it..30000 tweets...I don't think I will ever get to that!!:rotfl:
Yes life is pretty sound PLMBL..can't complain!!:D Maybe wiping out my debts would be nice..but done that before (through a large bonus:o) and then clearly haven't learned and run them up again:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o...so moral seems to be that I need to learn this lesson the hard way..so onwards and upwards!!MFiT-T4 Member No. 96 - 2022 is my MF goal

Hi Brizzle
I hardly ever tweet- I go through phases! I tend to retweet tweets from work to get them more 'coverage'.
Well done on paying off a cc! That excellent! What fab news about your energy supplier x

FIT stands for free in ten, it's something from the mortgage free board that Mrs B joins in with.
Feeling very proud that I knew what an acronym stood for :T

Hello lovely peeps!!
Umm.....Piq...you're incorrect hon. It stands for Feed in Tariff (well dne Satchmo;-)).. But yes the challenge on here is Mortgage Free in Three- Take 2 or Take 3 ( MFiT-T2 or MFiT- T3) so good recall too Piq!! No chance for me though..just another unobtainable goal of challenging overpayments that I like to set myself!
We get money back for the electricity we shunt back into the grid. Whilst we only have a few panels( my parents in their smaller house but better roof have twice as many) it is making over £600 a year so a good return. They pay quarterly and I look forward to it!! Even though I have budgeted for it in the monthly budget, smoothed out at about £54pm from memory.
Am trying out a new finance/ tracking budget app...will keep you posted. NSD not achieved today. OH bought groceries and lunch..grrrr. Oh well.
Thanks for dropping by. Am away again tomorrow but hope to pop in!MFiT-T4 Member No. 96 - 2022 is my MF goal
