Its (un)surpising what I can get done when I pull my finger out! Taking a break now to eat my yummy chili and watch Working Lunch from earlier.'We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars' - Oscar Wilde0

Right, jobs are done for the day...... of to my Mums in a minute, via getting Connor from nursery.
You can tell I've been off work this week because the post count on my diary has doubled!
Oh yeah, opened OH an ISA today.... only gonna put £10 a month in it for now, just to show him how to save! Then when he is DF, I will put more in there for him, and start him off on budgetted savings (birthdays/christmas etc)...... I WILL MAKE THIS MAN A DFW BEFORE I DIE!!!!'We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars' - Oscar Wilde0 -

Oh right, what ade you choose them as opposed to a high street building soc / bank savings account?
Im intrigued because the advice when you have debts is put your savings onto them, rather then stashing money. But like you I would like to have a savings for all the annual things, particularly car related stuff that all falls at the same time of year.
Hope your exDH doesnt put a spanner in the works for you. Was it an amicable split?0
