  • Hi AFK - sorry to hear you've been having a tough time. Glad to see that you've got the mystery with the sub accounts sorted tho. I love checking my online balance, but it's really simple and only shows the combined monthly payment online (not all the little OP's in between) so I've asked if they have any plans to change this, plus to let me know how much I've left for the year without paying penalty (only shows overall combined total so you have to do the sums - no problem this year when I'm way under but I've big plans for the rest of the term!!)

    You and bex make me feel so lazy...I'm still in bed on the laptop. Off food shopping and to make dinner soon tho....Have a lovely day xx
    Debt remaining: :(
    Mortgage - £117,759 (£134,600, Nov 2013)

    Work overpayment and home improvement loan paid back (£19200) :beer:


  • Thanks giblet - tough time - understatement. However Good News - 1st

    My Mortgage balance now has 00.00 at the end - officially and trying our (that's work colleagues and I) luck with the big jackpot tonight, not exactly a huge amount of 20p each to buy 1 ticket. Mustn't be greedy.

    However back to saga, and have just been told I did not consent to repair, are they joking . . . . . . . no, was the reply and they want the date and time of when I phoned. W T ???

    memo to myself - buy another hair dye next time at shops

    Sadly, none of your saga amazes me. Utter morons! Blame anyone rather than take responsibility!

    Good luck with the jackpot ;)

  • Completely forgot to mention what I was up to at the weekend. Saga completely taken over my life at the moment.

    So Sunny Saturday, mowed the lawn, front, back and sides, cut/trimmed hedge, and gave it a general tidy up. Sunny Sunday, after some shopping, helped DB and SIL paint the outside of their house, thank goodness its a one storey aka bungalow with lots of windows and cladding underneath the windows.


    However got paid by been given Sunday dinner, once again. Was shattered when we had finished, seriously shattered.

    My neighbour has sent them 2 e-mails, and they asked me if I could ask them to send it again :wall:. I saw this in work today "sob" and told my colleague, that's what I feel like, she said "what, shortness of breath" :eek: no, I said, sob as in sobbing :rotfl:

    Got to be in it, to win it ;) I live in hope :)

  • Forgot to mention, had to hurry for the cheap bus today, as I couldn't find enough change for the expensive bus, however got there on time, and as I got on, the bus driver said, "it's free today - Happy Tuesday", was a good start to the morning, so I now know I have enough change for tomorrow's bus :)

    Free buses!?! Good grief! You can't live near here then!

    I would have known that sob was crying (where do they find these whippersnappers?!)

    Glad bus fare is sorted for tomorrow. Does that make today a NSD? Think we will need a tot up at the end of the month to see what we need to do in last 61 days of 2016 :eek:

  • Correct me if I'm wrong - your east coast, I'm west :)

    Every work day is a nsd - for the most anyway :p


    What !!! It's surely not 32 days since I read 100 days to Christmas, however, the nights are fair drawing in :D

    I'm pretty central actually.

    There is a couple of weeks until the 31st, but after that there will be 61 days left in 2016 ( 30 in Nov and 31 in December). I can't actually remember how many NSDs we said we would aim for.

    Well done with the gardening at the weekend. :)
    Well done managing to get a free bus. I caught a bus today and it was not free. :( DD did treat me to a hot chocolate though ( as the reason for catching the bus was to meet her). :)
