    Well parties paid for (was sad to see the money go!)

    My full concentration now is on house saving and obv Christmas - hoping by October to be finished with my sons bday/xmas. Everyone else will just be in amongst that. Thinking about buying maybe end of year/beginning next. Will start a furniture saving pot once Xmas presents is out way :)

    Any tips about first time buyer will be greatly appreciated :) xx

    Morning,

    Got £3 from pinecone so sent that to house fund (every pound helps) I am still short from taking money out from when I was away but will soon have that covered by Christmas time. I have a mini goal of hitting £7,500 by Christmas. Thinking Feb/ March buy a house :D by then should have just over £8,000. Thats my new goals. Once moved in can save for holiday 2019 and decorate a room at a time ... Abba you will be getting asked 1001 questions for advice by then :)

    24 days until payday (was wrong yest!) :/ hate 5 week months truly. Think this weekend I will go hill climbing and have a quiet one.
