    Morning! Just done my scratchcards - £1.45 there.... and today:

    - got a mystery shop at Gatwick to do on my way to London.
    - check on the matched bet I finally used yesterday, tho I still didn't do the euro one.
    - shift money around as a consequence.
    - carry on with the accounts, which are going really well. One thing that speeded me up is listing the bankings within a word document, so I don't have to scribble things out and make two lists, one of bankings, one of work income.
    - check I take enough to do on the London journey and downtime while I'm there.

    Thats it for now - hope everyone has a good day.

    :T Wow! Congratulations on the overpayment, I bet that feels good!

    You've not got a sig showing at the moment :confused: was just wondering how that affected your totals.
  • I thought there was something missing! Well spotted pandapaws. Actually, I've seen that it has just come back (yes I'm retyping this)

    Have a good day KC!

    :o:o:o I don't like seeing my sig every time I post something.... sometimes I just untick the box saying "show your sig". Oops, busted!

    But you're right, I haven't done the whole of the update your sig box. Off to do it now :o:o:o

    Right, done it! Every single "outstanding amount" or "amount achieved" figure in my sig has changed. And .... this shows you how ditzy I can be - for a few months, I was counting the wrong figure on the Northern Rock loan. The figure now in my sig is the capital outstanding - which has gone below £6k for the first time this month - but for a few months now, I was counting the total balance outstanding, which includes interest.

    The other thing is that the interest rate on the mortgage has gone down from next month, cos its a tracker, but I can't find the letter telling me - I know I had it a few days ago. More oops.
