    And don't tell Mr GG but it's a fresh teabag every time :eek:.

    Exhausted. Changed over a load of DD's - great when you can do it over phone :T. Emailed 2 charity's to get new DD forms to come out of Halifax. Set up a load of SO's. Written to mortgage co for DD form (this mortgage is in Mr GG's name and life is too short to ask him to ring - the telephone security is ludicrous.).

    Backing up laptop now :A.

    I have plenty of dishwasher tablets - but I had to PAY for them - the cheek of it :eek:.

    Dinner was yummy (curry and sides) and all free on SW :T. Apart from the accompanying wine :o.

    Scores on the doors:
    Own house mortgage, linked with btl 2, less offset - 94.5k. Estimated MF date - Oct 20 :eek:
    Btl 1, less savings - 21.9k, Estimated MF date - Feb 23 :eek::eek:.
    Combined debt - 116.4k :eek::eek::eek:.
    Estimated payoff date with projected payments taken into account - 28/8/16.If I can achieve that I will be ecstatic :D. Anything earlier will probably entail a Papal enquiry, resulting in a miracle being declared :cool:. Buy your tacky statues here ;).

    Mr GG debt - 55.8k. Estimated payoff date Jan 16 :). If I achieve that, there is a good chance the main event will also occur :T.
