    Good news on the PPI! And what a fab opportunity for DD. My sister did a similar thing in a Rumanian orphanage in the early 90s. Was definitely an eye opener for her and an amazing experience.

    That's an amazing amount - so good to see you positive and fighting back. Just think a few weeks ago you saw no way you could reduce the figure and now look at it!
