Congrats on the new job!Mortgage when started: £330,995

£44 rebate from HMRC for mileage as company only pays 40p a mile. Will OP that and some expenses at the weekend :j
Meeting at customer site this morning and now WFH so £13 saved.
OH has written descriptions for motorbike and moped, just need photos and we can list on gumtree this weekend.
He's also started the ball rolling with getting rid of the car he jointly owns with 2 friends which was supposed to be for track days but the others have been very circumspect about doing any actual work on the car. It's sat down the side of the garage at present with weeds growing over it1 -
Put the moped on Gumtree yesterday, OH wanted to list for £150 but I suggested we put it on for £250 - we had 2 offers of £100 and 2 offers of £200 by 6.00! Someone came round to see it and he bought it for £200 and took it there and then. Could probably have held out for a bit more but it was great just to get it gone!
£244 OPd this morning, including my HMRC refund. Will def be in £330s at the beginning of September.
Got my replacement fitbit - managed 30,000 steps yesterday! Although quite a bit was walking to the pub to watch the second half of the rugby!
Off to see the family today, can't wait!1 -
Pretty sure that even steps to the pub count.1

Oh definitely counting them!1

£66 OP profit from expenses. OH had someone interested in motorbike but has not got back to us about coming to view.
Fishtank and slow cooker to be listed on gumtree this weekend.
Much housework to do.
Had roofer round today to quote, seems pretty good and may be able to do work late September / early October so fingers crossed the quote is good!1 -
Sounds like progress!1

Let's hope so!
20,000 steps, not sure my fitbit is right
Ducks and chickens in bed, dishwasher on, lunches made... I make that wine o'clock :beer:1
