  • Afternoon everyone,

    Sold two of the little ones toys (for a bargain of £5 each, my Facebook messenger was going mad with messages about them :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:) so have popped the note into my pot. It’s seen nothing but change lately so I’m sure it’ll be a very happy bunny :).

    Thank you , swimminginaseaofdebt
    I sure will be post here as and when applicable. I never really have cash on me but will try to with next month's pay.

    and [B]congratulations , katsoocam[/B]!
    I'm terrified of when we want to start a family!
    We're in talks of it and in talks of getting a bigger house to accommodate for a family unit (we live in a teeney house, i struggle with us 2) after we get married or during the final stages.
    Thoughts about finances just sends me into panic about it already and we're not even trying for one!
    :lol:

    £1.00 has gone into our new house fund.
    I'll start with £1.00 and take that off what ever is in our jar;
    I'll be taking the jar into the bank on Wednesday so I will update with the total then.

    as i said above, we're in talks of moving to a bigger house in the near future.
    He wants to get a bank loan for it so he can pay it off bit by bit and still put other money in savings...
    I don't know hoe i feel about this... I do want to have some money behind us for this

    Afternoon potters

    DH made the mistake of walking past me and jingling, a quick trouser rummage procured over £11 for the pot that I kinda swapped for a £10er (as in I took it out the bank and forgot to give it to him :rotfl: )

    Second pots are slowly starting to get heavier :D

    Today I got fired and need all cash.
    I applied for 5 jobs already and will be going job hunting in town tomorrow.
