    Good Morning :)

    I am always amazed by how much better a good nights sleep can make you feel. For some reason I felt as tired as I do after a 5 day week and I only did two this week :o

    My £50 YG payment has arrived and duly OP'd
    Also claimed a £10 CP voucher today

    I have finally updated my spreadsheet for last month. Pleased to report that another month has been knocked off :j I'm also well on target to make the 70% LTV I am aiming for when I can remortgage early next year. It's good to see and is keeping me focused

    I've got another chap coming to quote for my windows/door today. I think this will be the last one and then I need to decide which to go for. Been such a mixed bag so far though - I'm hoping today's brings some clarity to the situation.

    Best get dressed as don't want to scare the poor chap off :D

    Have a lovely day

    Evening all

    My electrical kitchen gadget I was selected to product test arrived over the weekend. I've been happily putting it through it paces.

    No money news :( Not even a NSD as I called in for some fresh bread rolls on the way home. The lovely smell all the way home was torture :p

    The time definitely does seem to be moving quickly at the moment, it has been two months since I last posted on your diary! :o
    • Well done on the £10k OPs, a cracking achievement :T
    • What colour is the handbag? I agree with Pushkin, I love to think about products amortising as I use them, it makes it so much easier to justify expensive products that you probably needed, but feel a tiny bit guilty about buying. My example would be £160 spent on a pair of Loake shoes for work. Wonderful quality, incredibly smart, but I winced at the price :eek:
    • Starting to think that I should consider surveys again, now we have a baby we are probably the ideal demographic

    Have a lovely Friday :)

    Hi Mr E - don't worry... I don't get in here too often myself at the moment :rotfl: Besides, you have plenty on your plate at the moment I would say ;) It's always love to see you whenever

    The handbag is a very summery pale apple green...it's definitley one of my more impulsive purchases...but I love it.:smileyhea It's had quite a few outings to different events for both social and work reasons - so getting used :)

    Hope you have a lovely weekend too

    Unusually for me I've had a productive Saturday am. Normally I tend to have lazy-ish one before turning to errands and tasks later on. However, todays activities required me to get out and on with stuff - so I did :)

    Back home now having a nice :coffee: and snack before moving on to the next task.

    I've been starting to make gather ideas and make lists for that C-event that happens in December ;) Not actually bought anything yet though

    Small OP today of £6 which was 2 more survey payments.

    Think that's it for now....
  • Well done on the op's and the productive day.

    Wishing you a lovely weekend. :)
