    2days? I'm intrigued (and quite possibly expecting that I've missed something very obvious)!

    Yes - half term looms large in our house too. I am only off for a few days (Mr Gnome works for himself so covers holidays). We are all fed up of the morning rush. I just want a couple of days when the alarm clock doesn't wake me up (the children will probably wake me up instead but I live in hope).

    Thank goodness it's finally Thursday, the day from hell awaits and who knows what time I will be home, but I will be done for 10 days (not going to even think about the work I have to do whilst I'm off - the main thing is no official work!!)

    Mortgage payment and regular OP made and Op's for the year now at £1783.98. Just waiting for the actual balance to update so I can colour in another brick.

    Another 50p on y0ug0v so now at £47 - might actually hit payout this month on that.

    My daughter is so incredibly tired that I'm actually pleased it's nearly the holidays! We usually get a 6am wake up call but this week I've been having to drag her out of bed at 7.30 - poor thing. Never seen her so tired.

    mortgage updated at £105.596.23 and another y0ugov survey completed, so total at £47.50..

    May is going to be truly awful for debt payoff... just awaiting my wages Tuesday, but it's going to be hardly anything I think..

    Never mind, will chalk it to up experience. Car insurance will have to go on a credit card this weekend.. Will clear CC5 and probably have another one built up - you can see my recurring problem can't you!!!
