Hiya Greying, I've been in your neck of the woods a few times but due to phone malfunctions have lost lots of numbers 🙈

It's about 26° in the garden today. You'd love our veggie field. It's great xx

Oh wow, a Tilly update 😀! I have also found your diary inspiring. I wasn't around at the time (didn't buy until 2016), but having heard of the legend that is Tilly I had to look you up (and of course join in the musing about what on earth you did for a living 🤣)

I'm sure everyone will love to you have back in the fold

I don't think I ever saw musings about what I did for a living. We both worked for global IT companies, working under ridiculous pressure but they money was good. Now DH is working but I'm not. I thought he would retire but he's only 56 and doesn't feel it's time to stop yet

Glad you enjoyed my diary. I loved it and I'm looking forward to a different chapter now. 

I'm still having some access issues. Once I'm up and running on a tablet, I'll start updates 

Thanks for popping by x

Wow you’re back I took lots of inspiration from you and did TTs all the time. Cleared my mortgage 9 years early, meaning I could make much better choices for myself and now life a much better life about to go back home soon as well. Hope you stick around.

Exciting to read your gong back home. Busy times ahead for you. I used to read your diary every time you posted. Really need to catch up x

Hi Bookworm, lovely to 'see' people I know. I've struggled today with access and searching

Both of our 'children' are getting married next year, with one of them having their wedding party in Portugal. Once that's done, it's full steam ahead as we have bought a piece of land to build on

I won't go through it now as I need to clear my head but it's exciting & scary in equal measures

Hope all is well with you x

Just read the goals at the bottom of my diary. Crikey, if we hadn't started to OP the mortgage, we'd still have another circa 9 years left to clear our mortgage

I'm so grateful to the MSE community to giving me a kick up the proverbial & the motivation to clear the mortgage
