Hello all, I'm back!!
Had a FAB time in London. The weather was b-e-a-u-tiful! We walked for miles and miles, my legs were so stiff on the Wednesday nightWe loved it. I managed to obtain a head cold (thought it may be hay fever but, alas, it turned more sinister :cool:) Still, back to work today and all is almost back to normal.
In the meantime, I received a cheque for a PPI reclaim. I expected about £40. I cried when I opened it and saw it was for £551. So £200 of that towards the small emergency fund (most of the rest towards a new bed which is desperately needed and some frittered on pizza and a meal out, just to celebrate) and a saved up £472.59 to the Virgin CC giving me a lovely Monday PAD of £672.59 please maz
I took the £27 from the wee side pot towards spending money when we were away so that is back to zero. Starting afresh this week.Mortgage at 12/07/2022 = £175,000
Mortgage today = £161,690.76
300 271 payments to go.House buyout fund £21,000/£40,000

I was wandering if I can join please. I've been reading these forums for a while and decided it was time I got stuck in. I haven't made a payment yet today but wil pop back on later to update.
How often do people tend to post? Do most people update daily?
Thank you
DC1:)
Hi and welcome Daisychain :hello:
It's entirely up to you how often you post but I do it every day because I am addicted to PADding :jgirlatplay wrote: »Hello all, I'm back!!
