Thanks Dancing, JWIL and HM
Well DH went and hurriedly swapped presents with his Mum before we go into tier 4 tonight. Stayed on doorstep. So I now have some £ in my proverbial pocket which is nice. DD has repaid me another £60 and because she won't be going to the gym in Tier 4 - I've knocked £17 off her debt for that too. However - the kids, DH and I all wanted cash swapped for digital £ so we can spend it without leaving the house - so when my cleaner returns I think I will be paying her cash again for a while. Not sure she'll be able to come next week if the schools are closed as one of her is still at primary school and she has limited childcare options. If she can't come that will leave me more £ to throw at debt. Same too for hairdresser. Got to take your wins where you can find them.
I've discovered that Am**** have a dashboard so I can monitor my sales. I will need people to leave me positive reviews. Once I have some I hope to pay for some internal Am**** book promotions to try and attract new readers.Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030
