I have been thinking about cashing in a small pension when I’m 55. It’s only worth about £20 per month when I’m 60 but I just thought I could use it to pay off some CC debt. I thought it was worth about £1k but when I’ve read up on it today I think it might be worth a fair bit more than that. I’ve e-mauled them today to ask what it’s worth if I cash it in so Cross your fingers that I have read this correctly. We will see. Have a good day folks and take care xx5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60
Currently CC £23,674.36 /£14,895.41/£14315.42
Mortgage £28,214.65/ £26,254.71/ £25,746.43
By end 2020 I want CC at £ 19,000.00.
By end 2021 I want CC at £10,000.002 -

Ha ha ha you are right I have been. I just have nothing to tell to be honest. I’m working from home. Hardly leaving the house. What I’m saving in fares I’m spending on food as all three of us are at home all day every day. My groceries have been costing me at least £100 extra a month.No word yet from pension company but I’m not 55 until 18th June so I’m not getting too annoyed about that yet.
I’m still chatting to the lovely man I’ve met online. Meeting him on Friday once some restrictions are lifted in Scotland. Socially distancing. He is a big bloke, is baldy with tattoos. Just like a teddy bear lol so we will see what happens. He’s 5 years younger than me. Aria hope everyone is well xx

Me too dawnybabes. I’ve been on a few dates and all been a bit of a disaster. To be fair I wouldn’t normally look at this guy but because we have been speaking every day for weeks during lockdown we have quite a bind going on. So if no romance comes from it we will definitely remain friends. Must admit though I’m hoping it all works out 😊 x5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60
