    Newbie to this sort of thing and stumbled across your diary :D Looks like your making good steps so well done :D

    Thank you.
    However after an 'eventful' weekend we find ourselves with some 'major' repairs on the house needed. Unfortunately these repairs are also going to be expensive! So the plan is going to take a few backward steps for a few months and then if all goes back to plan we should still achieve our objective in the timescale-fingers crossed. :)

    Cheers Hun. Tomorrow has to be better. Hopefully I'll get some divine inspiration as to how I can make 7K in a few months-the sooner the better. Onwards and upwards. :D

    Been down to Asd@ tonight with Mr tc.
    Bargains I got were:
    2 cooked chickens should have been £5.90 each-I paid £1.50 each
    3 individual pieces of fish all in separate packaging. Collectively they should have been £5.56-I paid £1 for the lot.
    :D
