The ultimate incentive proposed! Buying a house, a wedding, and staying debt free.

CMD - Yeah that is £148 per person.

Wow that B&B looks lovely Zig! If we get this ferry package we'll be staying in an Ibis

Thanks very much Poolie. I wish I had more annual leave and then I could get a cheaper deal! Shouldn't complain though, I am going to Oz for 2 weeks in November and have just come back from Spain

I just fancied getting the train.

I think we need to give Poolie a salary!

Am experimenting with Dr Gill's fave quinoa for dinner, made it up as packet said - 50g is a portion, and I only had mushrooms and onion in the house so that's all that's in, 50g doesn't look like much at all and I've just put it into Food Focus and my whole dinner only comes to 75 calories! I think I may need to supplement this or drop dead!

Is that a full meal portion or a side? Sounds very very small. Aye I think you need a piece of chicken on the side or some rataoille or something.

I made extra dinner last night for left overs for lunch today, and my tummy is gurgling away. Only 5 mins till I can put it in the microwave!

One of the blokes at work has just started kickboxing. I used to do that in Newcastle and loved it, and its something I would like to do again when we're finished with the gym. But he's too whingey for me to ever go to the same place! Plus they do it barefoot and with the big puffy gloves, I like it the other way around, little fingerless gloves and proper shoes so I don't break the bones in the top of my foot.

Just had a quick look at London to Brussels on Eurostar and it is showing as
£118 per person return.

NB- 12:57 London - 16:03 Brussels & 15:59 Brussels - 17:03 London

Thank you so much Poolie! You're brilliant, I agree with Tete about the salary!

I have just found the perfect accomodation and now I'm so excited! It's all coming together! So far it's worked out at £70 and 50 euro each for a night in Bruges! I'm chuffed

Wow - that accommodation is gorgeous. It looks so warm and cosy. I want to go now!

I am going from the 7th to the 23rd, with a stopover in Abu Dhabi/Dubai both directions. Where is your OH going?

We will be in Sydney and Melbourne (mostly Sydney). It will be my 4th trip in 4 years to Oz so won't be back for at least 5 years after that. Have seen quite a few places there now so I want to go to other places, mainly Cuba and the Maldives

Doubt we will be going to too many places next year with a new baby though!
