    Hi TPA, thanks for the encouragement... to answer your question about my avatar, she's my mum's dog, but she is pretty adorable. Her name's Droopy, because of her ears! My own little family consists of two !!!!! cats - my little flat was too small for a dog, and I work long hours, which means a dog wouldn't get walked as often as I like. Cats are that bit more independent.

    I like your avatar too! What is it?

    Erm a pink car/cat??? I don't really know, but I like things that are different - hence the very naughty rescue dog:rotfl:

    I too have a puddy cat, she is my princess, I rescued her on /new Years Day 1999. She is very spoilt, loves human company but hates other cats and especially dogs - was not at all happy when we introduced our rescue dog a few years back! She loves snuggles under the duvet when hubby is not around :rotfl:

    Really think I 'ought to go to bed now before I make an even bigger fool of myself. Not my fault, puddy cat is really my subsitute child!

    Yes just the sort of thing I would say! Mine have grandma and Grumpy (Grandad) as well as Mummy and Daddy:o

    Went for a massive walk with naughty doggy today who in fairness was fairly well behaved! We met loads of other dogs and he was very good except when he bowled over a gorgeous if boistrious (sp) spaniel puppy. Luckily it got straight back up!

    Have yummy Waitrose (aw i is posh:p) sausages in the oven, am making really thick onion gravey and mash to go with them - yum yum pigs bum!

    Tomorrow I am going to do my tax return..honest! Wait for the swearing.

    Right off to check my sauasages before I cremate them!

  • I've got all my paperwork together for the tax return but my figures won't let me enter the web address so I cannot do my return today;)

    My M&S delivery of the TV has arrived, the delivery man was very tastey mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm:o

    Nice posty bought me a cheque for £5, shame it didn't have a few more noughts on the end but cannot knock it!

  • OK, so tax return still not complete, however I have sorted some paperwork, the mortgage statement being one of these bits of paper, the actual interest figure is not around £47 as I said previously but £45.38 per month to be precise!:rotfl: Long live the bank rates being 0.5%, however this is unlikely to stay until our mortgage is paid in full, we should/will make the most of it while we can:money:

    Off to find and [STRIKE]bin[/STRIKE] file some more paper!

  • I am so excited I could wee wee!

    Rang the mortgage company just to see what the normal payments would be on our mortgage, they say £309, we are paying £600, I might have to round it up to £609 just so I can say i'm automatically over paying £300 a month:money:

    And breatheeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  • That is a lot of the capital disappearing every month. Add on the extra £45 in interest too and £600 per month would be going.

    Just thinking to myself we are a little strange on here, as we get so excited by the weirdest things, and then everyone else is also equally excited on our behalf. ;)
