Great feeling to smash another 10k barrier. How are you going to celebrate?

Hmmm, not sure!:rotfl:

Brilliant to be in the 70's. Hopefully the snowball effect will see each £10k cleared quicker than the last.

Been a rainy / sunny few days here, so been pottering in the garden and spending time with the littlies.

So close to getting to payout on Y0ug0v now - at £48. Also requested payout from check0ut smart which was £11ish, so waiting for that to hit the account. OPs will slow down now as summer, August especially is always a bit more spendy than usual.

40 points off payout with Y0ugov, hopefully that will happen this week! Still waiting for payouts from check0utsmark and 1 poll to hit the account. Been really slow with OPs but that was always going to happen as I stretched to get us under £80k.

My phone charging socket has gone really loose, so it may be time to look at a new phone, annoying it will bump up the monthly cost, but it is really my one and only vice in life and I use it for everything home ed!

Pottering round the house and garden this weekend, enjoying the sunshine and washing those huge items, such as blankets etc as they are drying so quickly.

Happy BH weekend all!

Actually having a morning to myself and I've gone through the 'pots' in the bank account and found OPs of £69.54 - not really demonstrating I am a conscientious MSE-er!!

BT bill has moved a few days as we had super fast installed so we have missed a payment in August (YAY), also totted up fleabay and palpay details and found a few extra pennies so OP made, should manage one more before start of September - how the flip is it nearly September!!

August OPs - £333.04

Great August overpayments, still a few days left to hit payout on the survey sites to give it a boost. Hasn't the weather been glorious this weekend, so rare for the August bank holiday.

We were so lucky with the weather weren't we. Changed for the worse now!

Last few days of August. It really has been such an expensive month, I need to remember this for next year and plan better!

We have firmed up travel plans for next year, one week in the UK touring round a number of places we would love to take the littlies to and some time in Paris. I wouldn't be surprised if another trip also sneaks in there. All planned and budgeted and saved for already, so I just need to get on with booking things up!

Forgot to say, hit payout on y0ug0v, so £50 requested. Still waiting for check0ut smart and 1poll to credit, they seem to be taking ages!

Also DH googled the phone problem and diagnosed fluff in the charging port, I didn't hold out much hope but a bit of fiddling with a paperclip and I was amazed by what he got out of there. Needless to say, it fits like a glove and is fine again! Cost of new phone averted!
