Afternoon all
I've failed in my flying efforts this week.
We were supposed to be going to holiday club but it's outside and chucking in down with rain so we're not going now. I need to go to the post office at some point but before that i'm going to do some HHC's and see how i get on.

HHPaperwork - check your utility bills, if you are in credit at this time of year you may be able to get your DD reduced (I did). Start putting bits together for your tax return. Check travel insurance and passports are in date if you are going away (have a good trip Bossymoo). Are you opening an ISA this year?0 -
Change of plan the sun's come out now so we're going for the last hour. I'll be back later to fly.0
