Glad Mini Monz had a great birthday party, the go karting looked ace!
You're very organised for Christmas, the gaming room sounds fab xx0 -
23 days to payday.
I have applied to be a Just Eat courier so fingers crossed! Need to phone and see where my mortgage balance is at then round the numbers so its at 0 at the end. Small extra payments makes all difference, so I keep telling myself lol! Well if you pay £10 a month overpay apparently according to Moneysaving expert saves £800 approx interest in long run so I like sound of that lol!
I have been told to phone Just Eat next week if I have not received a phone call. All they wanted was my driving licence details and proof I own a car. All been sent, I will also have a criminal check done but thats completely fine! If its £30 extra a week or more for four hours of more work I am in for it
I was told 4 hours is £49 but take off petrol I would think that be £30. Everything to decking xxx

Good luck with the Just Eat thing but don't burn yourself out!
Yay to the overpayments, every little bit helps xx0 -
Aw I wont. I do not do anything at weekend so would do like Friday night and Saturday
. So if its about £75 extra per week would help with decking, then driveway and then towards understairs toilet and loft. Hopefully have about £1000 towards holiday money by Christmas, then be able to pay off holiday in one go by end March with no council tax to pay and just pay one week all inclusive. Then everything is savings for house investing and improving it. Never ending!xxx

Morning. My boy had an amazing day and even hugged me at the end of it saying I was best mum ever and thanking me for his gifts! Hes a we soul!
I am 50 points away from cashing out £10 amazon voucher on Ipsos and did not do VO yesterday, no other reason just cba. I am currently at £5.65 so will try get above £7 today.
On just eat delivery. I have passed car inspection, got the insurance cover you need (had to pay £25 upfront and its 81p per hour doing work there) and just need to pass background check. Unless I have done something I do not know of in a few weeks should be set to go. Every extra penny from doing this (I will take money off for petrol) will go to decking fund. I do not know if I will stick to this or enjoy it but going to force myself to stick til least save £500 decking fund at least.
