Well we are through and out the other side. Just waiting for the follow up scan to make sure it's done what it was supposed to do for Mrs Tips.
That coupled with events around the world well beyond my control have left us on the SVR for now, so many deals pulled it was crazy. Kids back at school next week so will be able to sit down and focus on getting us on the best deal with our current provider just now. One thing after another at the moment.
OP's slowed down a bit as was expecting a large bill for car MOT and service but did not happen, again will take stock and get funds out of the current account and into the mortgage OP's.
