    Just got back from holiday and very sorry to hear your news. My thoughts are with you and Princess.

    Hope you have a great time in Jocko land - not sure where you're going but if you go near the Highlands beware - it's haggi breeding season and they can get v aggressive if you go near their dens :eek:.

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Just popped in from Lurkdom, made it through your thread from the beginning over the last week or so at work so had to surrepticiously wipe the tears when I read the sad news. Weird how this forum can get you emotionally involved with people you have never met or are likley to.

    Hope you have a great holiday up here in the Land of the Midgie, take care Froggy and Princess

    Hope you manage a good rest. Sounds like work tried to get the most out of you yesterday before you went.

    Take care x

    Have a great time Froggy!

    I have just read your thread so congrats on overpaying the unsecured, for your great SOA, and have a nice destressing holiday. And I agree with others the odd treat will help you the rest of the year with your OPs. And in this case as it will be used for work it isn't a total treat.

    Just a small suggestion, after you have cleared the unsecured is to build up a nest egg as well as overpaying the main mtg as I see from your assests you don't have a slush/safety fund?
