It's been a great day. Woke up, and had won literally £3.90 on the lottery, ran a 10k, watched almost all of the cycling, watched the footy, watched The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard and now Cougar Town.

WHAT A DAY

Today I have discovered that my fridge has a drip tray at the back that needs emptying every now and again. I’ve only owned this fridge for about 4 years. You can imagine how manky the water was… well, I say water. More like sludge.

Deary me. It seems too much income tax was extracted from me again. Inland Rev just sent me a nice letter telling me how to get a £460.60 refund sent directly to my bank account.

I was due to be debt-free in December this year, thanks mainly to Stepchange and Gamstop. However, as I've managed to save a little on the side here and there, I realised I was in a position to just pay the remaining balances off. So as of this morning, I'm totally debt-free. £39k in debt paid off in four years, which is none too shabby. Now I can start living a normal life again. :)

Thanks all :) And yes, definitely chuffed; I was paying £800+ towards it each month, so it will be nice to put that money towards something else now.

Awesome, DM. I *love* stories of people paying debt off. I used to head to the Motley Fool dealing with debt forums for good news occasionally; I'm a sucker for it.

I managed to fix my dodgy electric car window.

Previously, when you raised the window, it would bounce back from the top as if there were something trapped in it.

I used my big brain, and my torx screwdriver set to disconnect the motor, move the window down a few notches and put it all back together.

Satisfying

There’s a local group that provide support and assistance for refugees and asylum seekers who were running a collection today for the Afghan families who will end up here.

They got slightly more donations than expected so I’ve just spent a couple of hours helping load stuff, transport it and unload again. 2 vans, a few cars and a coach full.

That's brilliant, and very quickly done. Bravo.

Unlike this post, which arrived almost two months after the original.

I have just been approved in principle to re-mortgage. Which is quite huge to say I was on an IVA this time last year and could only get interest only.

Now to look at mortgages :)
