Hi AFK

I confess I haven't moved BB provider for a long time. BT is not cheapest one for me, but reliable, fast service.

Glad loft was ok. I agree about ombudsman re saga. There must be somewhere you can go above these incompetents. A neighbour of mine is having similar issues with freeholder.

I am off to House of Commons today. Lunch on the terrace and all that! As part of my job by the way! :rotfl:

Hope you all have good days.

Thanks - not o/p the sub account, o/p's were always sent to my mortgage account, will do calculations later, but i'm sure i'm on the right track.

Bexter - "La de Da" to you "Lunch on the Terrace" step up from "Breakfast on the Balcony" :Dhope you had a lovely time.

Feeling slightly better today, good day at work, what !!! did I really say that. Quick take my temperature :shocked:

Need to out tomorrow, looking for a birthday pressie/card for DB for his big x0 birthday next week.
I feel an expense coming on.

Well, no, I'm not on the right track after all. The two amounts deducted on two accounts don't add up to the amount I o/p'd. Will need to give them a ring/visit.

Hope you get your present ( and it doesn't break the bank!)

Bank already broke. Thinking of contributing towards a holiday, so won't be cheap. I'm sure I still have a load of euro's around somewhere :rotfl: but think they are finding it difficult to get the dates they are looking for.

Sounds like an exciting new job you have hope your still enjoying it.

Sorry to hear about bank breaking

I am enjoying the new job. It's quite different in a lot of ways - some I hadn't expected. People are nice which makes a huge difference.actually interested in doing their jobs rather than office politics!!;)

A welcome change. Have a great weekend

Bexster - sounds like a huge weight has been lifted. Know all about office politics, ? maybe I need to visit the House of Commons :rotfl:

In other news, instead of shopping, it was such a beautiful day here I decided to give the grass a last (hopefully) cut and garden a tidy. Looking good. so will pay shops a visit later on today. Washing on and will be put out as another lovely morning, so far. Not done too well with my list from last week,

• [STRIKE]switch phone and internet plus tv for me, mum wants to keep sky tv[/STRIKE] Done
• send email for repeat prescription
• [STRIKE]pay bill/do money shuffle[/STRIKE] Done
• take saga to stage 2 complaint - Pending
• List items on the b@y - Pending - ongoing
• Look for basic spreadsheet,
• Find/make a house graph with bricks to colour in - Not found yet, but have looked

[FONT=Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Hate when my lists don't get completed.[/FONT]

Hello AFK

It is great to see much of the list that was weighing you down a week ago cleared! I too have been clearing outside space ready for winter. Thus also left an excess of green tomatoes ( now in a paper bag with red ones attempting to ripen up.). Shopping to do here too. 4 NSDs this week. New job offers free lunch if we want and two nights a week free dinner too! Also using much less petrol, so will see how long the £30 I put in last weekend will last ( normally by now I would have needed to add at least £20 - I'm currently hardly off a full tank!)

Hope you get your shopping in. Sunny here too so enjoy!

Breakfast on the balcony, since its sunny Great benefits in your new job. How much are you reducing your grocery spend by ? Every penny saved should get you your little Italian place a little bit sooner :j

Phoned H@lif@x, seems the amount was divided and subtracted off my 3 accounts. And it was completely my own doing They are tweeking their online banking, and a new button appeared on the mortgage account saying "Make a payment" this then has a drop down menu for where you want to pay, of course I didn't see that, just took it to be the same as if I was making a payment from my bank account with them.

Lesson learnt, need to be more careful. Anyhow another o/p made of £1.54 . My mortgage now has 00.00 at the end :j at least it will have, when it shows on statement. Sorted.

It was chilly for breakfast. Did have my coffee and almond croissant out there when I got back ( free coffee thank you W8rose!)
Bought a couple of fresh herb pots as looking a bit bare outside. Have not worked out additional saving as only got first salary last Monday. Will see how the month goes and try not to waste too much and look again in three weeks when I'm paid. Only small shop today and no fuel. Better get those herbs planted.....
