    The gamble was interest only but there wasn't anything left to put on the horses.

    Ask DervProf - I think the recklessness is still giving him sleepness nights.

    Not quite sure what you mean, but as it happens I didn't get much sleep last night. Nothing to do with interest only, more to do with me staying up too late while sorting out my laptop.

    No, any lack of sleep that I suffer from is nothing to do with my mortgage, or anyone else's for that matter.

    Renoman's (RIP) & Effinflipflop's (also now dearly departed) epic interest rate gamble continues to pay off.

    I'm starting a petition to have Renoman reinstated.
    The guy is a hero.
    Look how he got bullied early in this thread by desperate prof, devon and associated sockies, but still kept his cool, stayed polite and stuck to balanced debate.

    Glad his financial acumen is paying off. :)

    despite being a blatant boomer, i liked this chap. seemed decent enough and took on a major project at the same time as me.

    hope he didnt discover some subsidence.

    either that he got a life and decided not to post on here anymore, unlike us bunch of losers.
