Ya in all fairness they where help full enough in the end it just seemed like they dont deal with people overpaying a lot as it was hold on i got to check type of thing hehe

I will get around to reading your full diary shortly, but can I pick your brains in the meantime?
What is the best way to clean internal windows without buying any specific kit? I've got white vinegar, ammonia, washing up liquid, sponges and lint free cloths etc. Probably scrounge up a bucket from somewhere as well...0 -

Thanks for popping in edinbutgher :]
Personally if i clean inside without a window cleaning blade and cloth i just use a microfiber cloth a damp one to clean them and a dry one to make them spot free.
washing up liquid is good no need to over do it just a little bit just make sure you use a nice dry microfiber cloth to get them to come up clean with no streaks.
i guess you have some big windows being up high ?Mortgage--- [STRIKE]£67700 March 15[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£65221 April 15[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£64983 July 15[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£64780 sept 15[/STRIKE] Remortgage [STRIKE]£67295 oct 15[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£66599 Nov 15[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£65878.73 Dec 15[/STRIKE][STRIKE] £64834 1st Jan 16[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]Feb 16 £64,511.89[/STRIKE][STRIKE] March 16 £64,056.40[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]April 16 £62550[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]May 16 £62,396.20[/STRIKE] Feb 17 £60.800
