LSD today apart from essentials only bought a couple of cans of pop at the beach, went for looooong walk with DS and played lots of footie so it was all very healthy until we came home had dinner and then a big plate of strawberries and cream each...Mortgage OP 2025 £6200/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

another day by the beach and another LSD - 3 cans of tizer for a pound... hadn't had that since I was about twelve... hopefully I'll have lost some weight by the end of the week as we seem to be walking about five or six miles a day!!!
Off to download something from itunes as a treat - DS brought about 3 bottles back from his dad's with a free itune on each and until they are used they will be hanging about the kitchen taunting me.
Have seen an ad for a house (not built yet) which looks almost perfect for me and DS and they want completion to be 1/11 which is coincedentally the very day I can move and not pay any penalties... might go have a look later.
off to do the itunes thing and make some lemon and poppy seed muffins as I need to use lemon and eggs up.
P.S. after spending lots of time by the beach I've decided I NEED a campervan.Mortgage OP 2025 £6200/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

I agree Beanie, the house does sound great.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

House does sound good but I'm now panicking how much needs done to this flat before I can sell! I'm going to see how much I can do before the end of August... will go have a wee drive by the one I fancy before the end of the week. If nationwide houseprices are right that would be fantastic but I think using Scotland as region might mean the accuracy is a little doubtfull...
I have been doing some weeding - yuck! got interrupted by massive downpour so had to come in.Mortgage OP 2025 £6200/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
