    Bye Ms_London....!

    Your achievements are pretty damn inspirational and spur me on when I'm feeling sorry for myself. I can't wait to be where you are now!

    Some clever ancient greek guy said you have to practise and practise at being good until it becomes second nature, at which point it's time to enjoy life confident in the knowledge that you're doing things right. And that's what you've done with managing money, so enjoy the next stage. Good luck.

    Ms London,

    Enjoy the most wonderful holiday/ experience you are about to have, no-one can say it's not been well-earned and much deserved. Good luck with packing and final preparation before you go. You will be missed but remembered as an inspiration!
