Hi Ali,

what have you been up to recently ? any updates ?

Ali-OK

Creeps back in sheepishly

All good in Ali-world and the distraction continues! :rotfl:

But lots been happening aside that.

Laptop has been on its last legs for some time and finally have had to spend out on one :eek:

A problem with the central heating/water system meant 2 bills totalling £420 and counting....

And I bought a second car again :o With DS turning 16 next week, he'll have the runaround this time next year, so in effect, I've bought a year early. That's my excuse anyway . It is another 2 seater convertible - not a classic Alex . So a cost in extra insurance and road tax.

I've joined the gym after realising that using the pool and exercise classes 3 times a week over the school holidays, it'd be 50% less cost to do, so that's added to the monthly outgoings a bit.

Mortgage... considering I had alot of the summer off and the above additional spends, I only paid just a tad over minimum repayment at £700 - still, it's going down and now at £105,175. Must update sig!

Work is thankfully nice and busy this month and into next. I've lists as long as my arms with less time at home and more time being sociable

Still doing all the little things - Inbox £s, lots of P1necone £3s, Qmee has £1.84 in it and the change bucket yielded £46 which was banked.

Bank account moving around is likely to happen with the Spanish Bank's interest rate drop...I'm looking!

I've alot of diary catching up to do to see what's happening in everyone's worlds

Ali-OK

Hello and welcome back

Nice to hear everything's well in Ali Land Had friends who had 2 cars, 1 for them and the kids, and 1 for themselves - no kids - a 2 seater convertable :rotfl: for date nights


Agggggh :eek: to central heating saga. I still have my own saga ongoing Nice to hear from you

Glad to hear you've found love, Ali.

You can't tell me you've bought a roadster and not tell me what it is? I'll have a guess at a BMW Z4? On the subject of roadsters, I bought an MGB today ... just like being 17 all over again.

Good to see you posting Ali. I've just done a switch to m&s but that was for the vouchers rather than the interest rate.

Any extension progress?
