Thanks Andan what a lovely thing to say...I need to update tomorrow as my loan is due out...I know what you mean about doing things that pay out later...this month has been quite hard but we will get there..so lets keep going..

I know I've only got a week left to be part of this challenge, but I still will pop back & see how my buddies are doing:D
Also I'm not really out of the woods completely as my Husbands wages lower in July as back to his old job after a secondment, although I'm earning a little bit too now:D we will be tight.
Worst thing is our mortgage low rate runs out in September, so I know that will go up quite a bit, at least we won't have to struggle with that & debt on top.:o
So as you can see, I will still be using this site for tips & money saving/making advice, inspiration etc & will be saving like mad until July to get a bit of money behind us for a rainy day.
So I'm afraid you'll never get rid of me:rotfl:

Well done Laura.


I'm having a bit of an off day. Not feeling great and feeling very very down. I've seen wedding dress I want on ebay for 50 quid. Not sure whether I should go for it. I know it'll save me a lot of money but think where my head is at at the moment is skewing things a lot.

Well done Laura and have a great holiday.Sorry that you are having an off day Unixgirl and hope you feel better .soon...If you really like the dress and are definitely getting married then go for it. I can really comment much as I don't know where your head is at sorry!!

thanks taxi, my head's probably all over the place as OH and I had a row last night over something silly. Stupid I know but amazing how the little things affect you.
