Morning all.. today is turning out to be a good day..

First of all.. the most important thing... K's cut her first tooth!!!! We only realised last night when Ste went to get something out of her mouth that she'd picked up off the floor and she bit him! :rotfl: Bout time to! 9 1/2 months and no teeth??? :eek:

Secondly I checked the internet banking this morning...aaaand

the parcelfarce cheque has cleared :T
I've been paid £27.60 :T
plus tax credits have paid us an extra £95.38!!

I called up tc on monday to let them know I'd started my job so should get the notice soon to see if our weekly payment are any different... Wahey!!

Also one of our bingo wins has changed from pending to processed so that should hit the bank sometime next week followed by the other two. Have updated my sig to show they're different and not one lump sump!

Apparently Ste can feel his egg card quivering in his pocket

The post has yet to arrive so will let you know if anything interesting comes of that. Ste had his last old o2 bill yesterday which was - £3.76 or something like that... add that to the -£1.59 I had on my last old o2 bill and we'll get a £5 back from them eventually... got to write to them and request it. :T

Edit: Have also updated my sig... and that £213 in savings is seperate from Ste's going out money and the money for practice sunday so is proper savings!!!! Can't believe it! :T

Lovely! Congratulations on K's tooth - and thanks again for posting your detail, as I've said before, I love seeing the way you work it out, encourages me to think in those terms too.
