    Congratulations :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Thanks all. Both should be home this afternoon and then the real fun begins, its still not real!

    20p TT'd this morning. Fund is well below target with £6.69 to go in 8 tidies! £13.15 quidco cash is showing in account as pending which is exciting as that's all but 2 days interest.

    Payday for me on Monday so will complete money shuffled and get an idea of the months expected OP total (early guestimates at £620, which ticks off the first £600 month and can roll over £20 for a dry month!).
    MFW: Was: £136,000.......Now: £47,736.58......
