    Enjoy your weekend Hypno.
    Don't forget your coats, it has turned v. nippy this week. (Though I am White Rose rather than red - I cross the Pennines to go to work every day)
    As for being MSE, it's cheaper here than the salubrious South, so you should be quids in! ;)

    Have a great time up north, Hypno, I hope the hypnettes win big time. And thats great news on the workshop, yay to the squares.

    I love the decluttering talk - keep going! There *is* more to life than paying off debt, and to have that "more" we need a base to go out from - if stuff is overwhelming us, it gets really hard to do anything. I speak from experience :rolleyes:

    Have a good one.

    yup, passports and flat caps at the ready, shaun.....

    I've been to Tesco, and bought enough food to keep us going in picnics all weekend.....and filled the car up with petrol. So, it has been an expensive trip before we have even set off :rolleyes:

    Going to have a coffee, then cook myself bacon and eggs (rare treat, but I am having a day off, so what the heck), and look at the property !!!!!!.........then get the car loaded and ready. Then I will colour my hair and make myself look respectable, before whizzing round the house with the hoover and the j-cloth.

    The radio is on full blast, and I have put the heating on for an hour just to take away the autumn chill, so all is well in the hypno house for now.

    Hey Hypno, sounds like a nice morning.

    How are you doing with the pay off £3600 challenge? I've just paid £306.40 off my Egg card and cleared it - woo hoo! So will now tackle the £3700 one.

    like "hurrah" or "yippee" or "ring-a-ding-ding" :rotfl:

    Seaxwyn, I am at £3525......not much being thrown at it at the moment due to paying house insurance in full this month, and skiing being particularly expensive right now, but I am hoping to have it gone by the end of the year......your own figures are looking good at the mo - long may that continue :T
