    okay lenny, stop whinging about mortgages Len....some of us who 'own' our own homes...ie have mortgages are actually on interest only mortgages and therefore won't own their properties for many more years...

    So to put it bluntly - I might live in my 'own' house but I won't own it for many many years unless I get my finger out....

    **real Len Alert**

    I Wish I Could Tell My Family And All My Friends That I Am In Debt, Lyng About It All The Time Is Making Me Weary

    Hugs Len. No-one in my real life knows. The only family I have are DH (who obviously knows) and the kids, but friends havent a clue. I dont lie, I just dont tell ;)
