I wasn't even aware this was even a possibility thank you. I have checked and it appears my missus already has one open. So we will start working towards that.

Happy Hump day. 2 More work days until that out of office goes on 😆. I expect the next two days to be pretty intense.
I took my trainers back for the refund today, and the money was back in my account today to enable me to order the next size.
Feeling pretty drained today, so will be an early night I think.

And breathe….1 more day 😊…what a day….anyways that is done with and now time to put myself in holiday mode. I need to go collect a few bits tomorrow after work but then all prepared and ready to go. I treated myself to a nice bubble bath and now will chill for a bit.
No money updates today.

Not managed to catch up fully but I'm really pleased to read that you're looking to get on the housing ladder - you work hard and deserve a place of your own.

It is still likely to be work in progress, but we are at least moving in the right direction with it. Hope you and the family are keeping well.

Out of office well and truly on!. Work phone off and in the drawer, laptop off and work email taken off my personal phone. Time to be in holiday mode…only I could go away over the hottest bank holiday though 🤣. Today we will be doing last minute prep for it and making sure we have everything we need.
