Hello pbr! I couldn't log into MSE for ages as work blocked access (how cruel!). But it has been miraculously restored now so I am back. The first thing I did was check your diary. I'm glad you are still posting and hope to catch up soon. Take care!Mortgage (original/ current):193,000 (23/09/11)/ £102,500 (07/11/2019)

Hi PBR
I have just read through your diary and just wanted to say ...it isn't just you and Mouche reading! I am sure there are one or two of the quieter MSE readers lurking in the background, me included!
I have a diary that seems a little neglected (by me as much as everyone else admittedly) but it's there and it acts like a little angel on my shoulder, reminding me to be good (even when I've been bad!) and to keep on keeping on! It's a long road to mortgage freedom, especially with little ones!
I think your commitment to ebaying/car booting is admirable. I have phases of decluttering but have not been able to bring myself to list anything or commit to a car boot for ages and ages and ages! Years in fact! I hang my head in shame
Anyway, just wanted to wish you well on your journey!
