Re: The Happy Stuff Thread

Been a bit of a dearth of happy news recently hasn't there? So, I did a car boot yesterday and made £110 profit, which is in the piggy bank for my holiday spends. My son's GF has just finished her PGCE and has been offered a teaching post, so they are well chuffed. Daughter is loving her new job. I've got another 5 days off from my part time job. Oh yes, and this time in 5 weeks I'll be in Corfu on my holidays

The only revolution will be if they run out of Amstel Or Mythos. Or Southern Comfort. :grin:

Re: The Happy Stuff Thread

I think that's very nice of them. Useful, too.

I remember when we got our first ever mortgage with TSB, 20 odd years ago, we had a huge bouquet of flowers from our branch, with a card saying "Happy New Mortgage"

Re: The Happy Stuff Thread

Thats a really nice gesture of the bank to send a useful gift. They are showing their softer side.

When we last moved 14 years ago we received a food hamper from Bank of Scotland a nice one too.

Re: The Happy Stuff Thread

We never got a bean from our Mortgage providers.

Whenever we move home though, apart from making sure the house we leave is spotless I always leave some flowers, a bottle of wine and a welcome to your new home card for the new owners.

Re: The Happy Stuff Thread

A few particles of good news:

My Passport has arrived (although OH's hasn't so at this rate I may be going to Corfu on my own lol)
The stuff we put on Ebay hoping to make £100 or so sold for a whopping £368
I put a bet on tonight which cost me 70p, and I won £12.76


Not a bad week at all, so far
