Go for it Squizz, at least you'd know where you stood then, maybe he's not asked you as you seem too independant having your own place and wanting to spend time there?

you can even make a joke about how it is kinda money saving in a way, but you'll both benefit financially anyway, not just you...
but the real reason is cause you love the bones of him.....
Well the time is tomorrow night then I suppose - I do need to go home tonight and sort out the wreckage :rotfl:Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -

Well Squizz- listen to your Aunty Bob and go for it girl..two can live as cheaply as one ( unless it is Mr.B)
On second thoughts- learn from my mistakes:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: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?

:rotfl:
He doesn't have any debt (apart from the mortgage) so I can't foresee Mr B type problems! (no doubt there would be other Mr S type problems along the way though!) I reckon I've saved him loads actually, introduced him to Quidco, discount codes, freebies, suggested looking for furniture on eBay...
Can I not just send you lot round to talk to him?:D

Work on him slowly Squizz- Sounds like you are making great guns- why not look on the Mortgage free wananbe challenges as an incentive for making savings and getting rid of mortgage?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?

I'm not sure if he can overpay on mortgage or not - it is fairly new.. and I don't understand these things very well! We are currently at 'probably should look at gas and electricity suppliers to see if can get it cheaper' stage...Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -
Had a constructive night tidying up and got a good run in too - feel really knackered today though, woke up really early then dozed off again so I feel rubbish!
Just spent another £3.99 on my toiletries budget - I got a free sample of this hand sanitizing stuff - http://www.quashme.com/ - a while back and when I'd run out of spot cream I used a bit of that instead (figured that natural antibacterial stuff would possibly work) and it was really good, really gentle as well, don't get that dried out feeling that I get from the chemical-laden stuff. I've been putting a bit on my face most mornings and nights and my skin feels better than it has in ages - so thought I should stock up! The 15ml bottle I got as a sample has lasted ages so 50ml should keep me going for quite a while.
Thought I'd have a look at the Boots sale in case they had any good shower stuff etc cheap to stock up but anything I would have wanted is sold out already - probably a good thing!
Oh and yes I will try to approach the subject of living arrangements tonightDebt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -
Today's horoscope :eek:
The emphasis is on putting some money into the home (or maybe taking some out of equity) or being involved in financial transactions with a family member, Capricorn. A responsible attitude is the key to unlocking happiness today.Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -
There you go then - today's the day to sort it!!!! :T"Start every day off with a smile and get it over with" - W. C. Field.0
