Tidied up bank account this morning so OP of £1.46
Can't wait to see BF's face when he looks at the statement on-line and see's the amount as he thinks small payments are a waste of time

Hiya Radish, I am sure he will think I am quite mad - but it's still 3p less than yesterday :rotfl:
I have put on weight over the last few months, slacking on exercise and drinking - things need to change

Have spent 4 days at Euro Disney spending lots of money
Laughed so much whilst we where there that my ribs started to ache and had to wipe away tears of laughter as well

Hi Radish... if BF laughs at the small amounts tell him to top it up with his own money to make it what he considers a 'reasonable' amount!MFW: Nov 2008 £156k, Jun 2015 £129k, Jun 2017 £114k.0

Delayed reaction from BF
He has tidied down the big part of the mortgage to £80K (which is an OP of £5575.85)
Downside is that the pot of money for DIY is decreasing
Total mortgage is now about £110KMortgage Aug 12 £165K, Aug 19 £0

That's great news. He seems really on board - apart from small OPs, but if he's making 000s I would be pretty happy too.
It is a pain about the DIY budget decreasing but do you both have the skills/friends/family who can help reduce the bill?
