As some of you may well know, me and my girlfriend have been trying pretty hard to get our hands on some deposit money for our first property, the massive amount needed coupled with my poor salary and here period of 6 months unemployed, has meant that many things have been pretty slow, the car for one. Other things have just been more important finacially, it was looking at one point as if i would have to sell the zed, thankfully she got a job but even then the running costs would cripple my mearge salary once we were paying a mortgauge, so id either have to keep it and hope it didnt break/never use it or just sell it. Well im happy to report that for the last month ive been keeping something to myself, I HAVE A NEW JOB. The contract starts in august, includes many benifits that include a new company van, phone etc and the salary is double my previous one.

All in all that means, we can save way more over the next 6 months, get a far better mortgauge, i can keep the zed and continue the project. Infact ive alreday had the go ahead from the boss that as a treat to myself for this once we are in the new house i can get myself a nice shiney new pair of snails. :clap:

To say im chuffed is an understatement, its taken so much stress off us and means we can finially get on with our lives. Now for the fun of getting the mortagauge offer, finding a house and buying it, fun time ahead:pinch:
