Loads! Not sure whether to do the really urgent stuff and sell while still needs work doing on it or to do the whole lot. I'm thinking I'll do the urgent stuff then get some valuations, if they aren't enough I'll do some more work and pay off a bit of the mortgage if poss.Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

I don't like camping without a bloke there - pathetic I know. Tried and hated the Sun Haven experience... still comping! you never know... we have a nice beach and lots of mountain biking stuff not too far away so one staycation won't kill us.Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
