    Dunno about the 'not long now' bit! Feels like forever!

    I'll be happier when the credit card debt has gone! Wanted that to be this year but won't be now! :rolleyes:

    But you are well over half way there and still have a sense of humour and a life so are you not at least a little bit proud of your achievements because most of us do not manage anywhere nearly as well as you are doing ever. :D
