I need to pull my finger out as work us really getting in the way of my diary! TT'd £1 today and 55p yesterday so all going well there as we hit the mud month slump (daily TT's really help to keep motivated).
Nationwide are annoying me somewhat but I know it's not their fault (it's just they're not very friendly with it). I have childrens accounts with them for 2 of the terrors, and want to open another for number 3. So we nipped in to pick an application form up, but they won't give one or allow us to open without having an appointment and watching a video! I know exactly what I want, I have 2 others, I sorted a mortgage out myself but I need to watch a video for a children's savings account...! Does anyone really have time for an appointment?!?MFW: Was: £136,000.......Now: £47,736.58......0 -

Well 7 weeks post baby and we may well be emerging from the swamp and coming back to life! Mrs SJ has rejoined and been to the gym today, and we've made tentative plans to go the caravan this weekend. I can't imagine how much stuff we're going to need, but the weather looks favourable so we're determined to use every free weekend that I have this year (I work most weekends)!
So in light of the previous post and will endeavour to get the deed done before we go!MFW: Was: £136,000.......Now: £47,736.58......0 -
