    Morning. 16 days til payday and debt free to my mum and dad :)

    I booked my hair for following weekend but think will change to 30th March due to going to Carlisle that day. This weekend will be painting my stairs, while my son is going with his friends birthday day out (his mum will be collecting my boy from mine) will need to get his present this week. He likes nerf guns so seen a good deal in Argos will get that for £10 and some sweets.

    Nothing else to add really. Not been doing surveys recently much or at all. Need a kick up the ..... :P xxx

    16 days and then debt free apart from car and mortgage. That will be brill. I think allocating some of the money to your emergency fund is a great idea and certainly getting rid of an overdraft is sensible.

    Morning. 2 weeks til payday :D

    Today will be a NSD, my fridge and cupboards are full and recently been going through a phase of buying cleaning products nonstop as obsessed with Mrs Hinch (though tbh not a bad thing cleaning 24/7) lol

    I have been trying to watch all of Game of Thrones before the new final season. Tonight will get a couple watched while my dad takes my boy to TKD tonight after work. This Saturday will be gutting out his games room while hes at his friends birthday day out which reminds me I got to get his birthday present....

    Have a good day all :) xx

    As well as being a big fan of the series, I LOVE the books and I am patiently (NOT) waiting for George to finish writing them, as there are many rumours that what happens in the show is not necessarily what happens in the books ;)
    I will also be binge watching thru the last season before the new one starts.
    Seen a brilliant GoT themed t-shirt for us Scots Monz, it was a sillouette of Scotland wit the wording "Summer's NOT coming!" on it... :rotfl:

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.
    R.I.P. T.P.
  • Another major fan of the books here!

    Cannot wait to see the new season!

    Winter is coming!!!
