    Woke up really early this morning so thought I'd update my much neglected diary.

    I've been off on holiday for the last week so have had a nice time hanging out with OH at the allotment, meeting up with various friends and we went down to Glasgow for a night.  Fairly low spends as meeting with friends consisted of either going for a walk or a coffee.  OH paid for the hotel in Glasgow and I paid for meals and the petrol.  Lovely to be off especially since it was a tough few weeks at work before I left - someone new has started and I'm really struggling to get on with them.  Usually I can get on with anyone but we have very very different personalities/approaches and it's been hard going.  Hoping I will go back refreshed after my holiday and things will seem better.

    Mortgage overpayment account now has £15.15 in it :smile: so slowly making my way to the next £50 overpayment.

    Got my payslip a few days ago so need to make a budget.

    Plan for today is an overtime shift at work and get a food shop.
    Mortgage 26.4.25 - £108,500  1.8.25 - £106,362.86
    Mortgage overpayment savings - £3.33/£50
    Mortgage overpayments so far - £675.98
