    How did you feel when you got there?

    To be honest, at first its a bit wierd, you focus so much on getting to the point of debtfreeness and when it arrives you are lost ....................

    for about 5 minutes anyway then once it sinks in its bloody fantastic:j:T

    Wont take you long to have your eye on the next challenge though.......MFW perhaps?:D

    Fantastic! takes me back to my youth... me and my boss were discussing Moz the other day, (boss is in his 60s) he thinks it's fab that Moz's now being recognised for his brilliance and poetry.
