Got as far as choosing tiles, started looking at effing grout, found out I'd been completely ignored all round about my preferences for something else, had a temper tantrum, have gone on build strikehttps://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6466032/an-in-between-phase/p1

Seriously @Sun_Addict, every time I/we think something else couldn't possibly crop up, it bloody does. Anyway, nothing else is involved for me as I am having a massive sulk and am thoroughly on build strike, so whatevs innit, I am a calm and tranquil swan gliding upon the waters of not giving a f*ck

Does anyone have any thoughts on Santander 5% fixed for a year vs Nationwide 6.5% variable for a year?https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6466032/an-in-between-phase/p1

Are these regular savers or standard savings accounts?PennysIntoPounds said:Does anyone have any thoughts on Santander 5% fixed for a year vs Nationwide 6.5% variable for a year?Fashion on a ration 2025 0/66 coupons spent
79.5 coupons rolled over 4/75.5 coupons spent - using for secondhand purchases

If the money is all available at the start then the 5%, if it is available in monthly bits then the 6.5% So £1200 for the year @ 5% is £60. Or £100 a month @ 6.5% is £39. Or a mix of both with as much as possible going in for the full year.1

What about a 6 months regular saver at 7% plus? I’ve got two on the go with Principality. You can put £200 a month in.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)1
