Hi Froggy, I am very new here, I started to read your first few posts, then I realised they were 2 years ago

Do you have a summary of how your journey has gone? Top effort by the way in keeping this thread going for so long. :T

Hi Weexist :j

Thanks for your kind comments..
Summary as follows:

-Cleared £25k + of debts
-Bought house up North 6 months before the economic crash at inflatuated price..
- Borrowed 102% of value of property on a Norther R0ck variable rate :eek::eek:
-Back garden turned into swimming pool multiple times (not wished for )
-Split up with wife
-Got made redundant
-Got awful job
-Moved away from the area and then 200 miles South
- Sold property with a total loss of £20K
- Got new job
... But most of all got fantastic advice here, and made some great friends!

Hey Froggy

You may not have anything to add to the pot this month, but when you get straight it will improve no end.

Wow...life in a nutshell - must admit I didn't know you were a DFW before a MFW.

Enjoy celebrating payday!

Hi Froggy, when you list it like that, I just have to sing :dance::dance::dance: "the only way is up Baby"

Can't for the life of me remember the name of the song or who sang it, but I am singing it out loud at the moment :rotfl:

Could be worse Froggy - if you hadn't sold when you did you'd have had an underwater kitchen never mind garden :T.
