Good Morning!!   Happy Celtic Old New Year!   November Numbers are in!

Monthly interest of £122.93, which is £3.96 a day, we have dropped 25p a day in the lasts 6 months alone.

Mortgage overpayment was £420.39

So we now own 50% of the house. We did pay 26% deposit though

In other news, this morning I hit my £20k savings target.  All earmarked for house fixing.

In other, other news, my covid isolation ends tomorrow.

50% is a great landmark and just under 80k ...
Enjoy being let out, it is lovely today - cold but fresh

This month gets stranger and stranger.....Sent off an email about a 5 day gig at a local uni graduation at 7am this morning, while drinking tea and disliking Richard Madeley intensely,  and I got an email back before 10am, asking if I was still interested, told me exactly what role I was being considered for, and now just have to wait for them to get back to me with the pay rate.  

So, I may have just inadvertently got 60 hours of paid employment this month, and a contact at a job agency.  I know  this is hardly a new career, but if I can pick up some work here and there, then I really feel I  should.

They'd be mad not to employ you!!!

I think they want me, they just emailed to see if I require a parking spot. 

£9 an hour for the first 10 hours a day, then £11 for the last 2 hours x 5 = £560ish. Not to be sniffed at for a casual gig,  the kids will go on the bus (£40) for the week, will also apply for invigilator work while I am at it.  If I am within  crumpet throwing distance of 2 universities, then I might as well make it work for me.  I still want the kids holidays off this academic year, so school/uni term  work is ideal.

I was going to say that when exam time rolls around the universities will need invigilators so keep an eye out for those.

Schools are also crying out for invigilators - there appears to be a national shortage from what I've seen on some fb00k groups!- covid means quite a lot stopped for varying reasons. No idea how regular it is in a uni, but at the school I work in there are 3 -5 days in Sept, a couple in Oct, 2.5 weeks in Nov, all of the days it's open in Dec, a week in Jan, some of March, some of April and then most of May, all of June and a bit in July... not that anyone is obligated to work it all!! - and some of it is half days. Plus some in-year testing throughout the year every 6 weeks ish
