Good to hear everyone is having some excitement in their lives. I love that new boyfriend feeling, wish it lasted longer lol.
I am slightly bored of my Fiesta but I know I'll keep it forever lol or until I have loads of money as it wouldn;t be practical to change it, and it does do me fine.0 -

r.e MINI Hayley-don't go for one before 2006 as they have no end of problems...trust me0 -
Wow, everyone is about lol. I'd also love a new car, although mine isn't that old I stopped looking after it when it got hit, so it's a right mess now, and its acceleration is terrible, it is at least cheap to run though.
The 'new' boyfriend is actually someone I've known for 4 years, it's a long story but basically we've always had a huge soft spot for each other. He left Crawley to live in London a couple of years ago (was only there a year) and had a leaving thing in Brighton, I got a bit drunk and ended up crying for ages because I couldn't imagine being without him, I think subconsciously there had always been something there...

He is lovely, I'm very lucky. It was down to chance in the end, if my friend hadn't been working at the same place as us we'd never have stayed friends. I worked in an office the summer before I started uni and that's where we met, he would come in 20 mins early every morning to come and talk to me (I was always in early because of the parking situation). Anyway, in the September my whole dept got made redundant, so we all went on a night out. I left that not expecting to see him again, then a few days later my friend who worked there gave me a note from him basically saying that he'd been scared to talk to me properly before I left, and how he thought I was stunningly beautiful, funny, intelligent and so on (all rubbish but nm lol). Anyway, it was written as if he was never going to see me again, but I had to see him after that and he ended up becoming one of my closest friends

I'd never really thought about it much til now, but over the course of knowing each other we've bought each other sooo many little presents. I think it was probably obvious to everyone but us lol.Finally bought a homeStarting mortgage £289,500 31.01.19 - Current outstanding £192,586.98/CENTER]Overpayments since 27.03.19: £52,407.470 -
