Great figures Jodles, coming down very nicely. Cocktails in pint glasses sound intriguing!

Have a lovely weekend

Hoping once I get my new rate in August I will be posting more often again! Am also trying to avoid spending too much time on the puter with the nice weather! Have spent all my birthday cash now on more plants, went to a plant fair on the weekend which was awesome! Off to Gardeners world on sat which I am also super excited about! House account is looking a bit better so far this month have about £200 left once gas is paid so have a bit of spends if needed! We have bought tickets for outdoor cinema at the end of August, going to watch Rocky Horror and Jaws!

Managed a couple of small TTs this month, not feeling as much impetus as I would not be able to get under the next bracket regardless and its nice to have money there if we need it!

it is all a bit flat mid month isn't it... mind you, your plans for time off are good to luck forward to. I'll wish August comes quickly for you too.... August is my next time off work .

I'm with you on hoping August comes quick.
We plan to finally exchange contracts on our new house this week and completion expected by the end of July then we can get our lives back to normal having lived with my in-laws since we sold our first home last August! Picked all our choices last Friday and had a look around now they have done the first fix and plastered everywhere, beginning to feel real finally.
Keep pushing with your TT's and overpayment's when you can, I'm hoping to get back into it again once we have moved in and settled.

Hi Jodles. All sounding really positive and on the right track. Roll on new rates and more updates. I do like keeping up to date with your goings on as it's all so motivating.

Oh Paul that sounds so exciting! What fab news, August should be good for us all!! You need to start a diary, unless you have and I have missed it!

MT you are too lovely! I love your diary as well, you are always doing so much!!

Popped in to say I am looking at a possible career change, I have been thinking about this for a while and think that while I am in this job I will look at experimenting! I know I would love to work with animals, dogs would be the dream! A fab dog hotel which wouldn't look like actual kennels at all is the ultimate, but this new avenue I am looking at could work, will look into it more before I share too much and jinx it! Might need to mix current job with other one to ensure I don't end up with no money and not able to pay mortgage at all!haha.

Who knows!

That sounds really interesting, keeping my fingers crossed you can move into your dream career.

Ooh Jodles, definitely experiment with your new chosen path and let me know if I can help in any way. I love to hear about people following their dreams.

I think your idea is excellent based on what my friends with dogs say about having nowhere of a good standard to leave them when they need to.

Thank you ETE and MT! I hope so too, some issues to look into about practical stuff and also about how to even begin!

Had a fab time at gardeners world yest, spent a wee bit of moolah but all good! Had a meal then went to the cinema spontaneously to watch the conjuring 2, was terrifying! Dogs seemed to really enjoy their time in the new local kennels so will be booking them in advance before it fills up as everyone realises they are awesome!!haha.
