Radish & Hooch - The BIG house MF journey

Radish72

Little OP of £7.42


Friends wedding last week was beautiful and loads of fun, I didn't want the night to end, having to much fun "dancing" on the dance floor. Didn't enjoy the hangover to much the next morning but big breakfast inside and lots of juice/coffee sorted that out.

Having friends over tonight, told them its Italian so hope they are not to disappointed with pizza :rotfl: but have homemade Tiramisu for desert and lots of anti-pasta for starters, so looking forward to that but will probable be asleep by 10 as have cleaned the whole house today

Did OH think this was a reasonable amount?;)

I write all my Op bits in a book and add up at the end and pay in then. As I started doing them everyday and it got a bit of a pain. Its nice watching them mount up too. Also can do tiny amounts, like a money off coupon for 60p

I didn't tell him, I'll wait until we check the mortgage online and encourage him to round his account down (might get some :beer: inside him first)

Thanks HDK

I only check my bank account once a week and then OP the difference but I think I need to concentrate on adding up all the little bits we do and make one extra payment a month

The OP's have always been largish amounts but small OP's seem to be much more fun

The small ones are what keeps your interest up while you wait for payday .

Hi Radish, I may be a little barking but the small OPs really push me along. The main reason for doing them is it means I am checking all my accounts ever day. That way I am on top of what has come out, gone in, switched etc.

When balancing my accounts I do have a lot of lines to review though

Hope all is going well with you Tilly x

Oops it been a while since I updated here, seems such a long journey to undertake with starting a new mortagage that nothing much has happened

BF OP'ed £523
I OP'ed £11.18

Big part of mortgage is under £79K (until they add the interest )

New boiler installed so now living in a toasty warm house with lots of hot water and a shower that now blast you awake in the morning

Bathroom being ripped out at the end of Nov, so goodbye pink suite

New development - we are getting solar panels fitted the same day they rip out the bathroom, so will have lots of work people in the house and on the roof

Best news with holidays I only have 20 days work days left until Christmas hols start (in fact from next week I don't do a 5 day week until next year)

No idea though what to buy people for Christmas, this time last year I was all done due to the joys of shopping on-line
