    Sink is lovely :)

    Have seen the low fat version Froggy. What I would really, really love is a big bowl of spaghetti with BUTTER and PARMESAN and black pepper :o. Oh well, could have the spag & pepper so 2/4 aint bad :)

    Lovely bathroom now it is all done. Must be a relief.

    And i will be sending positive vibes your way for the IVF. I can't imagine having to go through that, as both my boys i decided i wanted a baby and the next month i was pregnant. I put that down to doing a module on reproduction as part of my biochemistry degree, but i guess it is down to lots of luck too.

    I was watching the Michael Mosely thing last week and the whole thing is so tricky in terms of timing it is a real miracle falling pregnant.

    I'll keep my fingers crossed for the next few weeks.

    Morning all! :j

    2 more Amazon sales last night, a 75p survey on VO, nothing on OP :mad:
    I have also requested £1.76 from TCB, and got a price check voucher for £1.87 from Mr T ;)

    We should get the final invoice from the plumber this morning, and I will be able to do my calculations for the credit card, and then move money about, and work out the next overpayment...

    Hope everybody is well...

    Morning Froggy,

    Your bathroom is lovely, I'm so envious. I'm sure you'll do a fab job on the kitchen too.

    I just wanted to say I have fingers crossed for you this week. A friend of mine went through the same situation as you some years ago with no success. They both started to feel very despondant and decided to have a break and not think about what they had gone through and they went away for a weeks break to Devon to relax and recuperate. Nine months later they were the proud parents of a baby boy named ........ Devon. I know this doesn't happen for everyone but it does happen when you least expect it........ so please keep your hopes up. A big hug.

    Ally

    Mortgage figures update in below signature!!
    :T:T:T:TWoohoo!! We are out of the £140's !!!!!!!!!!!:T:T:T:T
    So so happy,we have achieved that quite quickly too.. Our next targets is to get rid of the unsecured loan, and with a stretch reach the £120's by the end of the year!
    I have also received the final plumber bill, and this came under budget.. The balance will be used to pay off this month credit card and the rest can go towards the next overpayment!
