  • Moneyfordreams thanks for saying howdy, it's messages like yours that help keep me motivated to post.

    Made a 79p TT this morning and just had a lovely surprise of £100 for the account switch to ditch Santander for coop. So that's been sent straight to the mortgage and will give a whopping £600 OP total for December.

    One thing I didn't mention over the last few days is 2 days to accounts posting!

  • ^ What Ali said. :) Love your stats!
  • Thanks gang. We've had another great month without really pushing it either. I definitely need to revise targets for year 2, but also need to remember that for me year 1 only actually ends at the end of Feb so ill wait till then.

    Just used meerkat moviies to book myself and DS1 in for Star Wars tomorrow morning. I then used an old gift card and overall it cost us nothing! Bonus! I'll take Christmas chocolate and a small drink for DS1 so that he doesn't need to go for a mid movie wee!
