quote: This is how we did it; both put £1000 a month into the 'House Account', then had our personal Accounts for all personal expenditure. House account was used for saving towards renovations as well as house bills but couldn't have been fairer really as we both earned near enough the same, actually she took home more than me with tips and bonus etc. but the house costs were exactly 50/50 | |

Oh really that would soon add up, I only really wanted an additional phone line in the bedroom, it has a TV socket already which i did want but didn't realise it came pre fitted, but thinking about it a pair of cordless phones and you don't need another socket , and until we are in i don't think i really need to moves socket's ect. | |

Most of the house's we have looked at new build wise are already up & kitchen ect chosen. Going to be quite nice with this one to be able to pick the kitchen tiles preference to additional sockets ect | |
