    It's very tempting Beanie, plus I'd not have to pay over the top prices for ice creams! As all I'd need to do is run up the stairs and raid my freezer!!!

    Go for it:D

    On the bright side the DgF is at work and reading the local paper for places, she has found one that will take us no credit checks or anything, but it is in the middle of Stoke...lol I love the place, just love to drive home after haha!

    BeanieLou if it is the same stoke as in the potteries or Stoke City football club then yes, otherwise no lol
    We can afford it (my girlfriend and I can jointly) we have budgeted it all out. But what we are having difficulty with is the CCJs (2) on my credit file :(

    lmc, no it's not weird, I sat in the park and read my book yesterday, no funny looks except for a cockatiel.....

    I'll be doing it most of next week too, go jogging and shred in the morning, get a snack, have a shower, get changed and then pick me up some nibbley fruits and a book and go to the park....Read half a book yesterday I did.
