Oops. Forgot to come on here to update
. Busy doing that retirement thingumy 
.
House still not going through. May complete week after next or it may be months'n'months :eek:. Losing the will to live with it to be honest.
£50 claimed from yougov :T.
Off on holiday with Mr GG tomorrow to meet with friends. Here's a clue to where we're going
. A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort Mortgage Balance = £0

Hope holiday is wonderful xMade it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!0 -
Holiday was great, and what was just as good was coming home and not having to go to work the next day :T. We may have had lunch out to celebrate it.
Hopefully we will complete on house on Wednesday then the fun will begin. Mr GG has managed to arrange to be away for 10 days right at the start of course, he has history in this department
.
Speaking of which (or should that be whom
?) he excelled himself this morning. Couldn't find golf membership card. By the time he'd finished telling me there was no point me looking in his golf bag as he'd checked it three times I had opened one pocket, found card and tucked it where the sun don't shine :rotfl:. He had the grace to look shame faced but recovered well and accused me of planting it there

Funny Mr GG.
We haven't seen him on here for a while.0 -
Sounds as if Mr GG is laying careful groundwork for the next few weeks ... i.e. surely it'll be easier to box, pack, move and unpack without that kind of behaviour around 'helping' you ...:rotfl::rotfl:
Great news about the house - everything crossed for Wednesday:TFleabay + Weebuy + Gumfree since started diary 94 items sold, £649.71 clear profit0 -

Fingers crossed for the house. Will you move in straight away or straighten it out first? I know there was quite a long to do list......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:D0
