  • Definite respect :) Can just about relate to the party (in case insufficient alcohol and food has been kept out / delivered to you!) but when I've moved in the past I would have struggled to do a 25metre walk at the end of the day , let alone 25 mins ….

    • Mortgage paperwork largely complete, one document to copy and then post on Wednesday
    • Mrs E has done lots of packing while looking after fractious DD
    • £40 lent out at 13%+
    • New P2P total is £4,850.18 @ a blended rate of 6.98% after tax
    • Applied for the P0st Office credit card that MSE is promoting as the longest ever interest free offer. Got £4,100 to stooze/invest. If anyone else is thinking about applying, don't use the MSE link - it's an affiliate link and earns them money. As far as I can see, you can get £25 if you apply for the same thing through TCB :money:
  • Hi Ed! :wave:

    Wow to the house. I thought mine went quickly, but your sale has got skates on! :rotfl:

    Things have been manic since I moved - I feel the pain about the boxes - but SO much stuff needs to be done between house stuff, work and studying that I am rarely online. Or asleep, but I don't have a DD to thank for that. ;)

    Right, best get to bed and catch some zzzs. *Gets big net*

    Do you have a new diary PB? :)

    £100 lent out at 12%, new P2P total is £4,948.20 @ blended rate of 7.04% after tax. Nearly at my target yield.

    Need to come up with a to do list for house move today, getting near to the end, but still a little frazzled :eek:

    Thanks SHS, worst case scenario now would be purchase falls through leaving us with nowhere to go and a cheque for £50k :D

    I can live with that.
  • That would be a very nice hotel room!
