Haven't done the MBing yet Bob!:o Just researching...
I'm still swithering on the moving thing, I think I really want to prove to me I can clear the debts which is a bit mad - could move somewhere nice, live hassle free and have money in the bank but no....

I know what you mean about the hassle free bit. This used to be the family home and i am always called on by the older neighbours if there is any hassle or if anything needs fixing etc....the list is very long and as most of them still see me as a little kid i am expected to do!Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

That sounds quite nice in a way though Bob - lots of people you know really well and a sense of community. I know there's lots of places worse than here but sometimes it really gets me down, enough of the moaning though as Lou says I'll be asleep or on the toilet for a huge part of the ten months! will try to sort out a room a month though over the next few months and be good to go when the time is right. October shall be DS's room as I've already started it on the decluttering thread.Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

I've decided to set myself a wee challenge and try to raise an extra £50 a month and if I don't achieve it then the difference will come out of the following months entertainment budget, hoping this will help me claw back the DFD by another month and declutter at the same time! :T I know it's not much compared to what others do but it'll do for me and comparing myself to others is probably where all my problems started...:rolleyes:Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Trying to spend the weekend getting organised and tidying, why does the place look like a bomb's hit then?
Weather is horrible and I have to go into town for a few bits and pieces - boo! might have a wee look for xmas pressies while I'm there though...
Good news is that I've found camera though!:T :TMortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
