Hope you had a nice walk.
Good call on the manual payments - I like to do this as much as possible too because I feel like I have more control, for some reason I find DD's a bit daunting, but obviously I have a few of those too :P
Love ya loads and you know where I am x- on a mission to be debt-free by the end of 2017 - :cool:

I did but I've given myself hay fever!!! Now rubbing my eyes like crazy, going to see if I've got any tablets in the bathroom cabinet. I get it when I'm in Kent but don't usually get it up here LOL!
Glad to hear you make some of your payments manually too & I'm not the only one! All the companies want you to pay by DD don't they? - it's easier when everything is working as it should but I think I'd rather actually physically pay them when I know the money is there. xxx£10 a day extra in May '18[B]£35/310[

Yeh that is exactly how I feel about the payments - probably the control freak in me though

Good idea re: the manual payments hummingbird, and you're right, it doesn't all have to be done in a day.
Hope you got a good night's sleep

Hello there lovely you
I am coffee card stalking youI have the 2 main chain ones.. but not even a waitflower card
and I don't use the Star$ one because I am a Coster snob :rotfl:
I've barely used any of them in a couple of years though down to finance tightening... after doing the MSE calculator to put myself off.. over the time I work I would have paid £10,000 out on coffee... :rotfl:
I like your summer songs list! Mega
Re: manual payments. Are any of them charging you more for this and have you factored that in to your budget? Also, buy yourself a cheap monthly calendar which you can write the payment dates for each one onto and cross them off as you pay - my MIL does this so she never misses a thing, especially ones that can affect her credit rating
Big hugs! xx
