    Sad news

    The thought of counting the slummy jars of loose change and OPing the money is making me feel far more excited than I think it should :rotfl:

    Decide to OP the H@lifax reward of £5 to the big part of the mortgage

    Then thought I'll round the bank account down as every little bit helps so that was 2p

    Then decided to round bank account to the nearest £10

    So a grand total of £8.02 has been OP'ed :T
