Exam papers have run out this morning. I've made a total of £2800 before tax! Which means once the final payment comes in in early August I will have earned enough to completely clear the car with £260 left over. Decent chunk to add to the EF!
It's my birthday at the beginning of August- happy birthday me!Bottom line;

That's great news about the extra marking. Hopefully now you can get a nice EF together and possibly leave before end of year would be nice to start the new year in a new place without someone holding you down*Dad loan - £5300 - £7200

So husband's sister videocalled him last night; she's planning another family camp for the summer holidays and wanted to convince him into it. (
) He's actually agreed and actually genuinely said "well you know me, I'm easy going so whatever date you want to book is fine by me"
I am fairly certain I heard my SIL's wife snigger in the background of the call.
So hurrah for camping with in-laws.Bottom line;

So exciting watching the very last of those numbers coming down! What's the focus after this (as it seems like you'll be complete soon), more EF? I've just set aside the first chunk of mine and it feels amazing!0
