Learning to walk before I run

Thanks all

£2.89 interest received from one of the H@lifax savers that I am running down, no longer top of the table now the interest rate has dropped to 1% and it can only hold £5,000. £201 paid off CC, £1 OP, £1 ISA.

Had a better sleep last night after the no longer isolating Mrs E got me some Night Nurse and am continuing my efforts to drag myself out of the slough of despond at work - getting there

Night nursecis ace, amirite?!

My friend and ex colleague brought the bottle to work with her when she had a cold, she told me she felt so much better after taking it (not sure she stuck to dosage). I pointed out it contains alcohol which was prob why she felt so great!

For some reason Scotland does theirs the year after England. Not sure on the history of why they aren’t in sink.

We have done same years across the 4 nations of Britain since 1801 apart from no census during 2nd World War and issues in Ireland in the 2 previous.  Scottish ministers have blamed covid for our delayed census (happening on sunday coming).  (Runs off to find a pinch of salt emoji)   

Glad you're all beginning to get better Ed

@Alchemilla - actually I'm not quite so convinced now! Took it again last night (bed for just after 9) and woke up at midnight for an uncontrollable coughing fit   Test still positive this morning, but absolutely several shades lighter than yesterday.

Got rid of an absolutely horrible piece of work today, it had been weighing on my mind for nearly two months. I feel about a stone lighter as a consequence!

£899 paid off my smaller CC, which is now gone   £9,826.46 to go on the big one.

Chip paid out my original £10 bonus for being referred to them, Mrs E's referral bonus should complete by the start of next week.

That'll do pig.

For someone still fighting off covid you've made enormous progress. Congratulations.

You know what they say about draining the swamp and killing the crocodiles versus carrying that monkey around on your back...

I presume you are not speaking to any of us? this must be a TLA I don't know... DH snuffling around (pun intended) to look them up -Perseverance, Integrity and Guts seems more likely than Pipeline Integrity Gadget

It's from the end of 'Babe' - generally taken as meaning "that's good' or 'that's (good) enough'

That'll do ... Yorkshire?  Sheepdogs?  or have I been watching too much Matt Baker on Channel 4 online?   

Loving the laptop switch!
