    Hi All,

    I'm PADding £500 to MBNA please LMD and will be making small pads as and when I can from now on.

    But I'm glad, that I have reached under the £10k mark for the first time in about 3 years :j:j:j

    The summer holidays were good - expensive but good - and I am now looking forward to a more structured routine and some me-time whilst he's at school :rotfl:.

    Keedie,
