    The small bottle is Hobgoblin (aka Knobgoblin). The large bottle could be anything; it was a friend's flat.

    Oh, thought the small one was Erdinger. Whatever it is, looks like it has had the desired effect!!:beer:

  • I do hope that last couple succeed (Mary and Arthur) - they were lovely. :-)

    I want to add that internet 'betting' has been a very profitable exercise for me over the last 2 months. It certainly isnt gambling in any way, shape or form and never has a penny of mine been at risk. I would suggest people ignore the stigma of gambling and at least take a read of the info available which explains all, also we seem to have formed a great team of people at all stages of the process that really enjoy & advising & encouraging others and opening their eyes to this opportunity. Whats more there are no scams, no rip offs, no one on the make from you, like most money making ideas just get over the 'gambling' word, have a read then come and join the gang, its fun, risk free and profitable !! (but addictive - so be warned)
  • Don't suppose anyone knows the name of the woman in the recent episode (16th Feb) who said you can eat on £15 a week or something like that? Does she have a book?
  • The name of the lady is Linda Johnston. I've had a quick look on Amazon, and can't see any books by her on the subject.

    The programme yesterday annoyed me - the woman owned a house with a mortgage of £75K, worth about £240K now, which she bought about 14 years ago. Well, if she bought then, I'd guess that she must have paid about £75K, so she doesn't seem to have repaid any capital which would probably mean she is 14 years into a 25 year endowment mortgage. They were talking about the saving she'd make if she paid off her mortgage early rather than letting it run for 25 years - but chances were, she only had another 11 years to go anyway, so surely the savings would have been a lot less.

    For those of you who enjoyed the first of this 2-part documentary, I thought you might want to know the follow up starts on Thursday 11th January at 7.30pm with Dan & Lucy the lovely couple from Cornwall (think stoves...) - ours is the second programme showing on Thursday 18th January.
    The programme is now called "Did They Pay Off The Mortgage In Two Years? "
    I look forward to reading all your comments - whether positive or negative.

    Excellent, I'll have to set Sky+ to record these. I wonder how many managed to achieved the goal? I reckon that only two families managed to do it.

    I praise all the efforts - They all made an effort to at least try it. This can't be said for most people in this country, let alone the people on here full of negativity.

    The principle is brilliant: Profit = Revenue - Costs.
    Simple rule of Economics/Business. The profit in this case being used to pay off the mortgage (a liability).

    I will be watching all the episodes very closely.
