    Here you are lovely!

    Keep up the good work, its nice to have savings. Might get there myself one day but I can't face having savings when I have got so much debt!

    Sorry to hear about your tummy bug, but how is the job going, are you enjoying it and how is your DD adapting to daycare?

    And when is the sun going to start shining. ARe you anywhere near Bude?

    I have just realised that when I post - its like twenty questions????

    It's novel having savings.... guess I'm lucky cos my debt isn't accruing interest, once I've got a decent amount I'll pay a lump sum off.

    Hey Tigz - sorry you've not been well, hope you're feeling much better now.

    A picnic in the New Forest sounds lovely, hope you have a nice day. The weather seems to be getting nicer as the day goes on (it was freezing here this morning but blue skies now).

    Thanks Snaggles.... but looks like our plans are going out the window. My friend is stuck on the M27 as they've closed it. Arggghhhhh!

    She's stuck in a boiling hot car, no air con, a toddler and a 5 month old baby who is due a feed...... poor thing!! x

    HSBC haven't responded to my 2nd letter I sent re claiming back my charges. So do I issue court papers at a cost of £80 and hope they'll refund or not?

    Need to have a think on this... incl interest I'm due back £946 which is a lot of money. Thing is, I owe HSBC money so not sure how I stand with claiming back the charges.
