    remembered you did a SOA while back, will have another look...

    If you are going joint then a new SOA is probably needed.

    I looked at the diary, I think you need to think longer term, no point buying weekly tickets if the saving on monthly is more than the interest on any debt.

    Also we were looking for a glass cabinet/sideboard for a 85cm space and thought of IKEA billy as an option found this in a charity shop, UK new over £2k they want £175 but it is a too big(95cm) for the space we planned trying to think of somewhere else to put it.

    I think I've decided to go back on this whole idea and just stick with separate until debt is cleared. The system works OK, so maybe I shouldn't rock the boat.

    I am aiming to buy monthly train tickets, I'm on weekly this month because I'm trying to tie up my monthly ticket to be purchased the same time I get paid that £400 monthly, if you get what I mean. I missed it this month unfortunately so next time that payment comes in, I'll set it aside until I need to renew then buy a 1 month ticket. Come June I'll be paying the travel out of my business account anyway so it won't matter as much.

    That does look like a great cabinet BUT I was able to buy a BILLY, with doors and extra glass shelves, and lights for £119 :T Grandparents gave me a £100 IKEA voucher for my birthday so I only spent £20 and we've got a gorgeous cabinet for glassware and extra storage space below it too. Very happy.
