Little baby steps! Still haven't touched the money in my paypal. Cutting it a bit fine with my budget this month so concerned I may need to dip a toe in.
I need to check to see when I'm getting the £100 for switching bank. Might message them now so I have a time frame.19/12/14: Spent 10 years of savings!!
