claire - sounds like you are doing great. I can't wait to actually meet up with you at Ames' meet next month in Bristol (hint, hint, anyone else want to join us?)
I've got a big box for amazon and ebay stuff, and I still give some stuff to the charity shops. I can't be doing with ebaying everything as I thought about the cost and time involved in packing and posting stuff, so I decided if I was unlikely to make more than £2 before fees, that it wasn't worth the effort of giving up a lunchbreak to end up with less than 50p.Debt at highest: £8k. Debt Free 31/12/2009. Original MFD May 2036, MF Dec 2018.0 -
Thanks guys-we worked out what we need to live off till he starts his pension,and have left that amount in a savings a/c ,and took the excess and knocked it off the mortgage-very nearly mortgage free,but we want to keep a small one in case we decide to move-think it's easier to get a new mortgage as an existing customer (for over 20 yrs) rather than as a newbie..yes?Also,if you still owe a small amount they store the deeds for you,rather than having to pay them to do it for you are MF!Debt-free...and staying that way...0

Happy birthday, Sammy! :beer:
I'm just sat in my room watching the rain. There's nothing like seeing rain come down when you know you don't have to go out in it.
I feel ridiculously happy for some reason. I'm not going to question it, I'll just go with it and get things done while I'm motivated.
