Tesco have opened a current account for me over the phone. I don't need to open on at my bank. Yay. :beer:

Hello Ms Mindgame many thanks for posting and welcome. Bless ya.

I have been helping the boys move house and have been working on this for 4 days solid. Their cooker hasn't been connected yet so we had to eat out. That has cost me just over £84, eating out is v expensive but we had to eat hot food or we would have frozen in this pouring rain. And I tried so hard to save money this month no overpayment of my mortgage in March now. lol. It was dry for a while this morning and I managed to wash and dry some clothes.

Now it is raining again. So many trees have fallen down in the New Forest and here close to me as well. Glad I am safe at home now. I think the weather is supposed to improve now so things are on the up.

The plants that I ordered and have been tending to in the kitchen have started to flower which is great. So far I haven't managed to put anything on fleabay as I can't transfer phone pictures to my computer. lol. I might ask my nieces to help me they are coming on Thursday. :j

My plan is to start marking tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

I had visitors all day and I felt a bit lazy too so no work done. I have taken pictures of my silver necklaces for fleabay and will list them during the week.

Weather was rather lovely till the evening when it rained just as I bought my washing in. I haven't spent any money today so I am happy.

I did try to open a current account with my current provider (ie and have two current accounts) but they turned me down. Tesco have allowed me to though and I will keep this for the 3% interest.

Just joined Swagbucks. One day I will be rich.lol.

It's the best day. Payday. I am waiting to put a small overpayment into mortgage fund.

Day of marking today.

Mrs Upsidedown Bear, anyone do you know how to recommend anyone for a certificate or something from Martin Lewis? or Fermi or someone? Badger09 has just given me fab financial advice on the banking forum. They are marvellous.

OMG I just applied. I don't know if I will be successful as I have applied for other current accounts in the last few days. Euwwww. Pray.

You sound like you've had a busy few days savingwannabe! Enjoy the time off work, hope you don't have too much marking left to do!

Good morning, BB. Hope you are well.

It is payday. Best day of the month. I made an overpayment of £100 on mortgage :j and have put £300 in kitchen fund.

Marking awaits but I am having a laugh whilst I do it. :rotfl:
