Evening all,
Thank you for the lovely comments again. You are all very supportive here!
Ive just paid £3.39 into my help to buy ISA today.
Thanks again!
That's just what we do on this thread stacey. Sometimes life throws curveballs and mucks up debt busting - other times it gives roses
- tis not 'going down' (or getting into debt - or buying that £1K whoopsie) that's the crime, but staying down (pretty much not having your lightbulb moment)
It's why I am still on this thread on MSE - we just don't judge! So pull up a pew and remember - today Erme for the second time in a week - spilt coffee on her chromebook
(tis currently in airing cupboard for 2 days drying out
)
and now for yesterday's total
a nice but perfect£75.32
Keep on padding!!!

Hi All,
A quick PAD of £25 (with £20 going to my son's savings and £5 going to MBNA), thanks Erme.
I'm off to have a micro nap before the school run, so that I don't become a liability behind the wheel...:eek:
Thanks,
Keedie,

Not sure I can do a PAD every day now, as our building work is about to start and funds will be needed daily for materials, but I will try to pop in regularly, even if it's just to say hello.
£20 to BC today please Erme x0 -
