    Good news on the mortgage front El..as for the parks, get a scooter..leave em standing whilst you run over them:D:rotfl:

    thank you both very much for the kind offer ladies ... if i see you on facebook i will take you up on the offer ....

    well i went into the local town and finally saw a swimming costume that i liked ... and some other things ( as you do) ... whilst there i was asked if i want a card with them ... i think i have one already but said yeah ok ... reason being i get 6 months interest free to pay up the clothes and i get 20% discount next thursday and friday ... so i tried on all the stuff i liked ... and have asked them to put by the stuff i want with the intention of buying it next thursday or friday with my 20% discount yay .... although truth to tell i did like just a wee bit too much lol ... but if i get 6 months to pay it off ... i will have it wiped off in 2-3 months no worries and that will allow me to have everything i need for summer

    am sorely tempted however to get a scooter so that i can run people down lol ... thanks bob for the idea
