:j My £100.00 turned up in my account today :j
So even though I o/p £100 last night to make up for it being missing.
I o/p the £100 that appeared today, what you didn't have - you don't miss
I'll remind myself of that nearer the end of the month when pennies are short - it being a 5 week month

Yay for missing op turning up :j
I got a little windfall today, so once banked will go straight onto the mortgage. As you have rightly said - never had it, so wont miss it. Still having a ding dong with the mortgagor...all fun & games at my end.
Have a good evening all.

Thank you, great news on the windfall:T, depending on how much right enough, I would maybe have kept a little £20 for a treat for myself - I get so little of these, now but, Sorry - not what you want to hear :rotfl: Get that o/p made to the mortgage :A
Like a good old "ding dong" now and again and "fun and games" - is there anything anyone here can help you with ? they are a knowledgeable lot - you know.
How did exam go? have you heard anything yet.Always have 00.00 at the end of your mortgage and one day it will all be 0's :dance:MF[STRIKE] March 2030[/STRIKE] Yes that does say 2030 :eek: Mortgage Free 21.12.18 _party_Now a Part Timer from 27.10.190 -
Morning - Exam is next tuesday and I am not happy with anything to do with it. My head space is all over the place at the moment, so I will continue to revise as best as I can (just won't be enough) and hope for the best. At lease if I fail, I can re-take it in June, with another exam that I am taking in June.
My ding dong will get sorted once I have received the information from the bank - I have decided that if they cannot be bothered - complaints galore will be on its way.
So between myself & OH, we used to love takeaways, so now what we have decided is that if we don't do the weekly takeaways, we can use those monies saved towards a nice meal out at one of our fave restaurants
Otherwise, I have virtual savings pots all over the place and a nice spread sheet to keep it all up to date and correct.

:)Thing is, the mind is very strange about what you actually know, without knowing you know
Good idea about the carry outs - we still need a bit of normality
Look forward to hearing about your ding-dong with the bank Always have 00.00 at the end of your mortgage and one day it will all be 0's :dance:MF[STRIKE] March 2030[/STRIKE] Yes that does say 2030 :eek: Mortgage Free 21.12.18 _party_Now a Part Timer from 27.10.190 -
