    Well done with the gifts.

    I feel your pain, I am rubbish at buying gifts, yet DH is the best present finder ever!

    New week, new TT pot and pleased to start if with £1 whilst the account is already tidy! I should also get my halifax rewards in my tesco savers today so that £15 will go straight to mortgage. I've not actually got anything money wise on the horizon either. I need to swap DS1 savings account but that's not a priority.

    I do need to get back to running after a break with the dreaded cough, today's not an option so will steel myself for 3m tomorrow.

    Just realised that this month i'll be able to post a comparison to Year 1's figures when i do my accounts! Thats so exciting as it'll really show how much we've progressed.

    Sad i know, but it lightens up a long slow Monday afternoon on a 11hr work day!
