Lovely to see you Dr K
Really 2 years since you were telling us you'd graduated?! Are you still in Manchester or back in Wales now?
nannylala, I grew up near Cambridge, and because it was local, the "family" supported Cambridge....... I however, opted to support Oxford, simply because I could
I remember the graduation....!
God I have been on here too long!

I d like to do all that but I've forgotten how to do spreadsheets so it s not a very good start

It's actually quite easy.
I can break it down.
Imagine one has £50,000.00 in a 5% savings account.
In one cell (let's call it A1), you would enter £50,000.00. In the next cell (A2), you would enter 5%. In the following cell (A3), you would enter =A1*A2. Now cell A3 will display the annual interest you earn for that £50,000 (which is £2,500.00). To work out the average monthly interest (let's call this cell A4), you would use the following formula =A3/12 (where 12 is the number of months per year). And the final cell (A5), could work out the final amount you earn following tax deduction every month...so the formula would be =A4*0.8 or =A4*0.6 (depending on whether you're a basic or high rate tax payer).

Yes thank you Karly that's about as clear as mud :rotfl:. I only learned how to use computers about 10 years ago when I went to some classes where I learned most things but since I don t do these things on a regular basis I ve forgotten how to to them
