    Fingers crossed that would be great but even if you have to wait until the 8th that is one heck of an achievement

    Well felt HScartwheel.gifyesterday.

    Today it just feels really weird (nice weird). I suddenly realised how much energy has gone into putting a roof over my head since I left home 28 years ago. Then when we started a family how much energy has gone into putting a roof over all our heads. I feel like I/we own my/our house now and that feels strange - I feel like I own my salary and that feels strange too. Also a world of possiblilities are opening up...honestly it feels amazing.....

    Yeah, yeah, whatever yawn.gif. Like anyone cares grr.gif.

    Wow. Must be fabulous, love the way you describe owning your salary. Mine is a staunch Marxist - thinks ownership is theft so spreads it between as many people as it can :rotfl:.

    How much were you paying off each month - what % payrise would you have needed to get that?
