    No and I didn't have a wand either :(.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    Have just felt ridiculously pleased as I found 4 premium pork sausages in freezer so won't need to buy any for 2 weeks (Mr GG has 2 every Sunday, I will be back on WW ones :o).

    Simple things........

    Staring at my bank account online doesn't make my balance grow either.... Maybe I should stroke it?
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
