    Plus my shed :eek: is no longer where it was in the back garden and is now nearer the house :rotfl:


    That's an ingenious use of the shed as a conservatory extension, Radish! :rotfl:

    Sorry your dad had another bad turn: here's hoping that it will all work out well.

    And as for your mortgage 'obsession', it's understandable, isn't it? I'd want to see it gone ASAP. The chances of me conceiveably getting one of my own in the near-mid future are slim to none, but you keep working away on yours so that, paradoxically, you can get a bigger one! ;)

    Pickle - thats brilliant, I will get the Estate Agents to change the house details tomorrow, must be worth at least a £10K price increase :rotfl:

    Off to see dad tomorrow, so looking forward to that and he had got an appointment with the top heart specialist at the end of this month, so see what that brings

    I do think I'm a bit mad, having a MFW diary, then moaning I want a bigger mortgage :D

    Plus never, say never, it could be you one day

  • hey Radish
    hope your dads appointment with the specialist is helpful and enjoy your day with him today :)
    good luck with increasing the house price now you have a lovely extension! :rotfl:
    I too would like a bigger mortgage...well , not a bigger mortgage, but a bigger house... paying off my mortgage I have at the moment would leave me living in a shoebox for the rest of my life! :rotfl:
    have a good weekend!

    If I'm not greeted by the words "make a brew and get on with making lunch" then I know he's not to good. But he told me last night he wants egg & cress butties. So if I'm lucky they might have already boiled the eggs

    I just want a together house :D I'm know going to ignore the bit that this will give us a bigger mortgage, but not that much bigger if we add the two that we currently have separately. I think its the thought of starting again

    Dad went to a see a heart nurse yesterday, his heart is stil beating fast so she has upped his meds, but his cholesterol is down to a normal level.

    I OP £700 last night as got paid on Monday, so still on target for under £20K by the end of this year

    Done some Christmas shopping and BF has decided he would like a PS3. Didn't seem to impressed when I told him no present this year, its all going to my mortage :rotfl:

    That's encouraging about your dad: not perfect, but getting there! :)

    :j 3 hours to the weekend :j

    Went to see Fankie Boyle last night - very rude and some parts I did find distasteful, best bit was the guy on before him,I laughed more at him but overall a good night out, plus got to spend some time with BF (on a Thursday, how extravegent)

    But off to see Ross Noble tonight, can't wait, I have it in my head that he wil just be so :rotfl:

    Also going to take my Godson out on Sat for his special day out with Aunty & BF 13th Birthday present, so it will be cinema, bowling, huge meal, mooch round shops so he can spend his birthday money Cant wait for this either as he is such a little munchkin (if I could stop puberty I would), plus I hope he picks Harry Potter as the film

    So I can also pop in and see mum and dad after we have dropped Godson back at home

    Sunday I think we will just chill and possible look at PS3 bundles on the Internet

    :) I feel all happy and I've just found 1p for the pot

  • enjoy Radish- sounds like a fab weekend!
    I do like Frankie Boyle he is v funny, but as you say can sometimes be a bit too much and it goes from funny to offensive! hmmm..makes me think I havent been to a comedy club thing for a while, not very MF but laughter is very good for the soul - perhaps I will get onto it! ;)

    enjoy nephews bday (maybe some subliminal messaging about Harry Potter would work?..) and good luck on the PS3 hunt - at least OH has told you what he wants! at the moment Im getting "dont mind".... hmmm... :rotfl:
