    Well done Jo! Bet that feels fantastic. :j

    Claire - We have a foam mattress that has a memory foam topper built in - it's bliss. I know a lot of people find them too hot but I haven't had that issue. We do have memory foam pillows too but I can't get on with them. We started out with just a topper on our old mattress and loved it but saved up for the mattress after DH's accident to make nights a bit more comfortable for him.

    Just been to town and done the "back to school" stuff for DD2 - just need to get her football boots but will shop around on line for them, have spent a small fortune and not even started on DD1 whose uniform is only available from the school outfitter and the skirts are £26 a pop. :eek: I have to get her skirts/trousers/jumpers/blouses and entire games kit from them, all with the school logo on. Good job she doesn't grow very quickly.

    Claire that is a cheap one but it's only just over an inch thick - I'd go for at least 2 inches as a minimum but obviously the thicker you can afford the more comfort you'll get from it. Ours is 4 inches of memory foam.

    I just got a letter in the post to say my Decree nisi will be granted next wednesday :eek: Few mixed feelings there.

    Other good news is got result of smear back and its normal...I always wait in anticipation of results

    Now the other thing I could do is also become debt free.....im so in two minds about it, I have the money in the bank but am nervous to use it all up and have no cushion to fall back on, and no money to contribute towards the move. Ho hum
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....
    Finally Debt Free...

    The divorce,
