Hi all

Emergency fund is slowly creeping up - £532 & I'm now debt free:D

Munchin that's great news. That you're debt free. Helen sorry about your toothache. We've been a bit quiet on here this past week, hope everyone is ok. Nothing to report moneywise but I'm thinking of trying to have 1/3 of my fund by the end of our first year. Might be a struggle as money is dripping out all over the place but I'll do the sums on payday and see xx

DH, sorry to hear you have had toothache. One of my workmates had to go to the dentist last week. Irronically, his appointment was at 14:30.

Anyway, have worked every Saturday morning in April, so have more than made up for a few lost hours due to a GP appoinment and over-sleeping.

On the outlay front, I am now the proud owner of a trailer that will be used to get shot of all my and my mum's rubbish before being sold on. It will be way cheaper than a skip at the end of the day.

It needs a few fixes (well, to be honest, it works as it should, but I like things to be to my standard) but these should cost little/no money as I have most of the stuff to hand.

Earlier this month I set up a SO for my EF (which was something I'd been meaning to do, but never got round to doing) to come out on payday and today is the first payday/SO payment, which has pushed my EF up to £583.34 :j In the past I was dipping into EF funds before I actually transferred them over to the EF, so I ended up saving less, so I hope this SO will remove that temptation

Glad to hear you had a good therapy session Helen

Edit: I just realised today's payment means I have now hit the 10% milestone :T
