    Exactly my thoughts. Problem is, said friend has anxiety problems (extreme in some cases) "What if the bank goes bust?" etc. However when I explained how much interest they could be making (and the FSCS) the next question was "Do they pay it monthly?"! so I'm making progress. Took months to get them a water meter - saved £50 a month! But t
    that's a digression.

    Good evening everyone.
    I am 10/25 please cathybird. Thank you. X
  • And me also checking in, 6/13 please @cathybird - I am glad to be so after a gin and tonic temptation earlier this evening!
  • 7/20 for me today, it’s pumpkin time! 🙌

    Wobbled a bit yesterday at 5pm ish (my usual cooking dinner trigger time) but decided I was hangry instead - a couple of biscuits sorted me out 👍
