Glad you enjoyed your trip to see family.
Shame about the F&F offer rejection but it was a very low offer. If you can go up a bit higher they may go for it next time.

Thank you. It was a very low offer and a cheeky one so I wasn't expecting it to be accepted. They offered a £2k discount which I thought was fair but I can't afford it at the moment. I'm going to leave it for a bit and try and add to the fund.Hiddenidenity wrote: »Well done on the savings/pads

Mortgage rates are up, so ours will be going up soonIf I remember rightly it's only about £15 a month, so not the end of the world.
Now that I've got some savings, it would be nice to see a bit of a rise there though
I'm delighted to say that for the first time in about 8 years I have a dining table :T :T It's been buried under a pile of stuff for as long as we've lived here. I've cleared out some stuff, moved around a bit and now there's enough room for the kids to sit there and eat/craft/do homework etc. :j Whilst clearing the junk I have sorted some more bits for ebay too. It also means we should be able to get rid of the highchair now too

Well they didn't waste any time! The new mortgage rate is showing in my account, but not the new payment amount yet.
1 parcel posted today. Also some baby wipes to return as they are faulty (got £6 in vouchers for the privilege!). I also complained about getting the wrong item in a bag from the bakery at Morrisons and have supposedly been credited 10,000 points (£10) for that to my card, but they are not showing yet."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

Ah, thank you, I was wondering how long to leave it before I complained (again!). I'll give it a few days then."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0
