  • Yes the domino's was delicious, but why so expensive? Whhhhy?

    So today my Santander card arrived. I can now start to move some DD's across to it. Have immediately applied for internet access to my account - which can take a further 7 days!

    As soon as I can see my account I will transfer some cash across - hopefully see some better returns.

    Been a long 7 days since my operation, long and (partially) productive.

    Joined swagbucks yesterday - cannot see me making a great deal of cash, but every little helps.

  • Your waistline will thank you for giving up the dominos when your metabolism slows so up in the middle years......
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
  • Thanks SSS

    I'm afraid the slowing metabolism has already started!!

    £96k to find, ten years (or less) to find it!

    Lets go!

    It's freezing in Scotland today.

    I did not realise you were a Scot FLC :)
  • Hi Edinburgher

    I am not, Mrs FLC is born and bred though - she couldnt settle in England so we moved to the West Coast in 2008.

    Lovely scenery, just very very cold.

    Hi FLC

    Glad to hear some success this week on accounts. Hope you have a good weekend before being bored again next week!

    I lived and worked in Glasgow for over three years and the west coast was a favourite visit but I agree it's cold even in summer.

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

  • GallyGirl - Nardini's yum mmmmm
    Before I read your post OH and I was discussing plans for my rehabilitation, and I suggested Largs - small walk, plenty of places to stop and sit, and ice cream cures all known ills!

    Yes I love the west coast. However Irvine Beach can be colder than the North Pole on some days in August.
    Becoming so aware of pennies again. According to my very poor maths, I should be MF in Jan 2029. I would love this to be August 2025. Just a mere 3 years 6 months to go!

    Sadly I think that was meant to be 13 years and 6 months ( unless I missed something)
