That's actually not a bad idea....Historic Debt August 2009 = £63,600 10th March 2017 = £0 100% paid all gone!
Mortgage started June 2015 = £170,000 January 2022 = £134,000

I'm watching the apprentice final 5 from last night (I think they moved the program as it wasn't on when I expected
)
Am I the only person who thinks none of them deserve to win?

Better check it's dry.

What makes me laugh is the 'bigging up' that they do in the introduction - says the initial 16 contestants are the best of Britains business brains. All I can say is God help the rest of us - no wonder British economy is on its knees.ELITE 5:2

A while back I ordered some plants from Thompson & Morgan but they never arrived. I then emailed them and still no reply after 3 weeks :mad: so tried their FB page
Had a reply within a few hours 
Anyway, they reckon the plants were sent out months ago and don't have any left now. So they've recredited the voucher I used and refunded the difference
Today I got an email saying they have free delivery until midnight. As the new voucher is a gift voucher I can stack it :T So ordered 72 winter pansy plugs for £2.99 delivered
