There's nothing wrong with a good rant every now and then, helps straighten out the thoughts I find! £150 pound hole in your finances each month doesn't sound like much fun, but you'll work it in, and think of how rich you'll feel come February when it stops
Can't be much help on the bramble front I'm afraid, though the best way I found of removing my ivy was to take it out of the ground roots and all!

No, we have many more, some of which have some very unlovely names that the council has tried to change several times, without luck:D
Next guess?
For the last couple of weeks rule no 5 has been running roughshod over my life, if I could fix it I would but it's not in my power:eek:, I realised I haven't really felt like me, I hate just coasting and seeing people I love hurting so I've been ranting into cyberspace, and been getting short with DFW newbies, so failing rule no 1, the golden rule!! So I need a refresher course on my own rules!!!!
The above is supposed to be an apology, it not much of one, I admit, but its the best I can do for the moment.

Aye Milton Keyes. I was drinking with a work collegue who is wanting to move down from Manchester and he was planning on buying there. However, after checking the place out has decided it's a no go - he can't stand the number of roundabouts aparently.Mini Challenge - Halve 2nd Mortgage by Year EndStarting: £10,000 Currently £8,142.62£3,142.62 to go!0

You get used to them after a while, it does mean that there is no way you can get lost...

Yeah, my youngest is normally awake at around 5:30/6am, which means everyone else is as well!!!
We'll be having brekkie at that point, so you will get to see my fluffy slippers. Its the third roundabout on the left, I'm in the cream house, looks slightly tumbledown... with some brambles in front:D
