    E Hallets PAD for me too please. Not only is it a sane and sensible idea but this is such a warm and friendly thread that it feels very positive and is one of my must-do things every day even if I don't have a PAD to add.

    It has quite literally changed my perspective on repaying my debts.

  • Another nomination for the 12 days of old style recipes thread, after a really grotty year of 6 months and counting off work sick and 5 stays in hospital, only to have my father taken into hospital last Sunday. This thread is really lifting my spirits as I struggle to have some form of family Christmas.
