On the bright side, you have enough to pay your bills & spend some £££'s
Fair point and I passed that module which going by FB a good few folk failed - should count my blessings really.

So I think I now have the money situation sorted and for the next month it shall go - third to cc, third to mortgage (or savings) and third to spends.
CC is paid off each month but there has been a lot of spending lately, what is it with all these birthdays?
Was a gorgeous day here today but I was working, hoping tomorrow will be just as good and I won't have other folks pesky kids to deal with:D I love kids but there were some real nightmare weans in today, or more so nightmare parents - why would you let your kids run into occupied changing rooms? and these were girls in a menswear shop...Mortgage OP 2025 £7050/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Thanks all, means I can relax for the summer - well mentally at least:o This working lark is exhausting, way too physical for a middle aged woman like me, desk job required!
Mortgage is going down just sloooowly. Might have accidentally bought a new dress while looking for tops for work but in my defence it was reasonably cheap and very pretty:DMortgage OP 2025 £7050/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
