    Right ds is in bed, the flat is 90% tidy, I'm just gonna tackle the ironing, (decided to do it before it builds up too big;) ), then am watching the footie. I might try and get a few bits ready for ebay on thursday (5p listing day). Other than that it should be a fairly lazy evening :D

    Morning !! Payday today, and I had a nice surprise as it was €20 more than noraml, I think it may be the annual payrise, not exactly huge but all welcome ;):D I have moved the normal €100 to the mortgage pot which has knocked another month off the total, and I think I only need to put in a couple more quid to knock another month off as its very close :D:D

    We didn't get our payslips today so I'm still not too sure about the extra money :rolleyes: I did remember to pick up a form for my petrol expenses for the training day earlier this month. Last night I did some AQA'ing and tonight I need to answer 2 questions which will take me over the €20 payout which will be needed for Mays mortgage overpayments.

    Just off to do ds bath and he's heading off early to the land of nod as he hasn't stopped yawning since he came home from school ;):D Back later to hunt down extra money-making ideas ;)

    I've just spent half an hour doing all the surveys in my inbox, well when I say "doing them", I didn't actually qualify for any of them :mad: and half of them had already closed as they'd been in my inbox for so long :o:o Still, I do feel good for trying at least ;):D

    I've just moved the extra €20 across to the mortgage pot too, and it has been enough to knock it down another month, so now it is due to finish in october 2030 :j :j
