    All said charity accounts finally up to date & they finally balance too.
    So only the stuff for the rest of March to go :j :j :j
    Isn't it a great feeling :D. I got my group's accounts to finally balance two days before the auditor arrived, just as I thought I'd be doing a balancing item :rotfl:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    Good afternoon

    I started a post to you yesterday and failed to post - oops!

    So I thought I would pop by and say hello as you kindly pop in to my diary. And I find the truth......... I am failing to find and eat my frogs because all of you are eating frogs too. Please could I have a frog myself tomorrow.

    I hope you have had a great Friday and a good weekend planned

    Take care honey
