Agree with Mfd! 😂 But can see that you don’t want to just stop with home mortgage and totally get that - seems like a good plan.Mortgage free 16/06/2023! £132,500 cleared in 11 years, 3 months and 7 days

😁 That is true!Just ordered some bits from sup@erdrug, tcb is doing a free £1.50 bonus today so I’ve used that and got free delivery too. £14.39 spent on bits that I needed and were reduced, I’m fed up of finding they are not in the click and collect delivery as they have sold out. Standards have slipped a fair bit, but I’m not running out of razors or moisturiser 😂MFW 67 - Finally mortgage free! 💙😁6

I always find Sup3rdrug to be really good for online orders - good value, low spend threshold for free delivery and quick dispatch. Now I'm wondering if we need anything....Mortgage free 16/06/2023! £132,500 cleared in 11 years, 3 months and 7 days

Don’t forget the free £1.50 on tcb today if you do Vix 🙂
Well the cat and I have had an outing today, the local vets rang to ask if I was her owner as she had been handed in as a stray! I had seen her literally ten minutes before in the living room 😆 she doesn’t wander any more but sometimes does a loop from the front to the back of the house. My little brother says it’s because she looks so shabby now, they thought she was abandoned! She is a white Siamese and is now seventeen so is a bit frayed around the edges. She was not impressed to have been abducted, the vets is her most hated place to visit.... On the upside it’s my first ever free trip to the vet!MFW 67 - Finally mortgage free! 💙😁7 -
Poor old girl, I wouldn't have been impressed to have been whisked off either!!! Sounds like whoever took her in was just desperate for a trip out and saw her as a handy excuse!Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

Poor thing! SC that might well be the case, but rather unfair! Good job she is microchipped though NG!Mortgage free 16/06/2023! £132,500 cleared in 11 years, 3 months and 7 days

Swift of whoever it was as she was with me about ten minutes before the call! very good job she is chipped Vix. She used to go out a lot more years ago, I once saw a photo of her on Rightmove asleep on a neighbours bed when it was up for sale 😂. She is now resting after being ridiculed by most of us for the afternoon, she doesn’t care though.
