I am feeling all scratchy as I need to sort out what will be going out of my bank in the next few days and I can't sort it as the world seems to pause for Christmas.

I have the tele licence to pay, new internet charges from swapping over provider, house insurance, food bill and various other bits and pieces plus being harassed from DS for money for some food, (I gave him a £50 note for Christmas but he refuses to use that and wants me to get my hand in my pocket again!)

I hate not knowing where I am financially and will feel so much better when all have been paid and I know where I am up to again. I have a lot to save for this year. I need a new mobility scooter for local shops for when mine goes into the car permanently. I need to save for the car change over to pay the extra on motobility. I need carpets for upstairs and redecorating DS's room.

Anyone else feel tetchy after Christmas over money or anything else until it all settles back down or is it just me? grin

I wish I was on commission (or had thought to write one myself!)

farnorth a statment only proves what your balance was at that moment, you have no other proof, this is what the banker was underlining.Sorry i dont have a link ( i am doing well to turn the computer on)smile
