Thanks Rose, the only issue with that is kids in the garden but I guess if it is set high enough it should be OK

Just been to Aldi to do my weekly shop, £72 - up from £64 last week as used Tesco as had some money off vouchers but still within budget!

A similar shop in Asda would have been around £20 more

Ah yes, of course. But yes, you'll want it quite high anyway otherwise it would sag and your sheets would drag on the floor.
Mind you, we don;t have a washing line at all atm as ours broke and dumped all my washing into the rose bushes!! (I was SO not impressed :rotfl: )

Ah not good then, just what you need when trying to cut every penny!

No, exactly.
Mr BR found it funny until I mentioned that it was his shirts....

Tomorrow is the day the creditors get paid by CCCS for the first time, it also coincides with my pay going into my account! :beer::j

Next time you need to replace things like rotary washing lines and the like how about trying freecycle ( freegle)?

Good luck with your journey BTW

Yes fair point Igam, I did check our local freecycle but there were none on there unfortunately

First payment to creditors made by CCCS! :j :beer:

No phone calls from creditors yet, although I have spoken to Barclays myself after receiving their standard letters.

Still nothing about the Halifax credit card accept it's been logged as being in arrears :mad:

Although have just checked my credit card account and in fairness no charges for missed or late payments and no interest charged for the last 2 months, so hopefully they are happy, just thought we'd have received something off them saying they were accepting or not accepting the payment!
