Well.... Don't say I didn't warn you I was bored, and when I'm bored I find little things to occupy me. Sooooo, I didn't think this month's total was high enough and then I saw that mine wasn't updated to 100% so I've backtracked through the August posts and I think someone in family Spagbol shut that laptop again without saving :rotfl:
No. 4 loubie lou should be £4595, increase of £250
No. 42 Paulie doodle should be £6277 increase of £2390 :T
No. 74 (moi) should be £7860, increase of £348
No. 92 missy 83 should be £6800, increase of £5475 :eek:
No. 110 muppets should be £2517.26, increase of £298
No. 156 chocoholic queen should be £2637.92, increase of £80
No. 179 Shelbi should be £1395.09, increase of £1321.21 :j

Therefore increasing the August total by: £10,162.21
Which gives a new total of: £14,915.61

That's lovely of you TCC The total doesn't look so bad now! :T:T

Thanks for the love people. My teeth hurt now. I really did have too much sugar yesterday

AMR, you can do this without credit. Look how far you've come whilst there, it's only a little while longer and do you really want to be paying interest? Also, look how far you've come with the savings pot you're almost halfway. That's halfway to freeeeedom. Get those 100 £ note pictures back up again and start the colouring process then stick it on the wall it might help you to visualise freeeedom

The next person to get to 100% will mean that we have reached 10% of all subscribers to have achieved their goal whooo hoooooo! :money:

Very true! I really don't want to have to borrow anything if I can help it.

We have two viewings this afternoon with private landlords - so we could afford to move without anything extra, since there will be no fees to pay :j Assuming the deposits aren't more than 6 weeks rent, which is standard! That would mean the most I'd pay for a deposit is £750, then one month rent on top, max £500 (one we're viewing is £475, the other is £440).

The only prob I have is if we give notice this week then we can't leave until October 7th, and my rent is due on the 23rd of every month and I really don't want to have to pay a full month's rent if I'm only going to be here for half of it! Are they likely to let us pay half the month? Let's face it - we're only having to leave because the LL isn't fulfilling his end of the contract! (Acknowledged by the letter that says we can end it whenever).
