Isn't it nice though, that you can turn them down? No more loans...bliss.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?

Staying loyal to his train obsession:D with mine it's footie and WWII:rolleyes:. Actually I think he's got The Boy in Striped Pyjamas somewhere so I might read that myself.

Thanks for that but really it was just a case of plodding on even when I really wanted to give up! and not giving up when really irritating things happened like the washing machine giving up the ghost or the dying car:D. I spent as little as possible over the last few years and now the flat is falling to bits... oh joy!:rotfl:Mortgage OP 2025 £6200/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
