    Just a quick banking update as I'm waiting for the students to arrive any minute!

    I now have most of the mortgage offset in savings/ investments. If I had to hand over everything I'd owe £545!!

    Have 13 items on ebay, and have one weeks pay due to me from student teaching on Friday. I also have the lodger paying on Monday (£400) so I will hopefully be mortage neutral by Saturday :) BUT this does not allow for everyday payments and bills coming out in July. However I get paid two more weeks of student teaching by then, so I will officially be mortgage neutral on 15th of July with one months expenses. Funnily enough this is the exact date of my 38th Birthday!

    So close!!
