    Very many congratulations!!!

    So, does this make you a MFW then?

    mmm... at the moment I need to do up the flat as I really, really want to move so it'll be mainly saving for that but once it's done up then I'll be blasting the mortgage till I move. Once I move I'll be a devoted MFW.:D

    Awww thanks all, and special thanks to Maz for making me realise that by buying a car on credit it didn't mean I was a failure - was so upset about having to do that at the Glasgow meet!
    And thanks to Numpty for that linky - will do it in a bit.

    Yes Bob, your strictness helped with this! I do still wish I was off to Malta in a couple of weeks but not going will be worth it in the long run...

  • I'm being sensitive - lot of people having a hard time at the moment and they probably don't want it shoved in their face. I am very, very happy and relieved!:D
