    That early retirement calculator needs a lot of actual thinking, doesn't it! I can't do that on a Sunday :o

    But I also have to tell you I've never been onto the forum at MMM before - thanks for the push :)

    Firecalc is another good one, you can run as simple or as complex a set of numbers as you'd like :beer:

    I think I need to look at that one again as I could only see how to input one lump sum whereas the one I linked to could cope with different things starting at various times. I wanted to change the $ to £ though, even though it makes no difference :D.

    Anyway, I broke the site. Seriously :rotfl:. You can download the results onto a spreadsheet. It worked the first few times then was blank. Reported it and the functionality has been taken down till they fix it :eek:.

    So.....

    Nytol
    1/2 bottle of wine.

    I WILL sleep tonight :D.

    In other exciting news - I've obviously completely changed the sites I visit as Google AdSense thinks I'm a 25-34 year old male :rotfl::eek:. It used to have me spot on.

    A day off work today. I fully intend staying in as long as possible - it's p**ing it down out there :eek:. Need to collect a parcel from Next though, birthday pressie.

    Packing also to sort out. I'm off on a mini-adventure this weekend and Mr GG off on a maxi-adventure to see the Universe (in the fluffy, touchy-feely sense, he's not visiting the ISS :rotfl:). But first - HUTH ;)

    Just had a scrambled egg roll for brekkie. I'd forgotten how challenging they were to eat :D.
