Had to post as I phoned Barclays to find out about the strange maturity letter they sent me (posted on the MFi3). Turns out I have call them to get depemption or I shall overpay. Well don't have to do that until December then I can make my final payment of £500.
How cool is that MF date 16.12.09 instead of 16.02.20 over 10 years early. Very nice thank you.
Done my expenses they owe me £400 so that will help next month. Went £30 overdrawn but is paid tomorrow and I have a £1000 buffer on my account so not fussed. Booked my hotel 5% cashback on £65 so not too bad.
Now I need to tackle those sales reports but actually fancy going to the pictures as I have a 2 for 1that ends this month.Moved to Denmark for FIRE by Aug 2025 “May your decisions reflect your hopes not your fears”

Hope the appraisal goes well and if relevant, consideration is given to the present economic condition etc.
Let's hope that July is better all round, just a day to go.0 -

Can't believe I just voted for a cat :rotfl:A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Thanks Stuart my job is not target based as such as we are not technically selling anything just a service. Should be OK though.
Thanks for voting for Eric he is the one in the bushes so to speak, 13 years old and a tabby one.Moved to Denmark for FIRE by Aug 2025 “May your decisions reflect your hopes not your fears”
