    Don't laugh, if I'd held out for a couple of more months, I'd have been able to use a TSBv1 chequebook with the TSBv2 bank...

    I don't write that many cheques...

    It's an offset repayment.



    Mine isn't quite that good. I have to log on after the payment has been taken, write down what's left outstanding, then subtract the payment, and the difference is interest.

    Hello, just found this!

    That's because you've been scarce_spice... :p

    How's things going at your end? Have you rebuilt everything yet? ;)
    Congratulations on your new home,

    Thank you. :kiss:
    do you still need your axe?

    Probably not alas. There's not a chimney on this property, so I can't even have a wood-burning stove. The last gasp hold-out would be some sort of fire pit for the patio.
    I shall catch up asap...

    If not soonerer... ;)
