Hi Brizzle, has the mad work/travel phase calmed down, or is it continuing? Thanks for stopping by.
Mr Tilly and I are both relieved that the mortgage is dropping now. The offset is a godsend and seeing the daily interest drop from £45 per day has been AMAZING. £27 OP per day by doing nothing :T
Still a long way to go but achieving this by 2016 is gong to make life very different. To know that we can do some serious saving after that is a big plus. We have both grown up finally, and given our age that's quite mad. Better late than never though

Good morning, what a beautiful start to the day. Will be off for a dog walky/run in a short while. Does the heart good to wake up to the sun. :T:T
Money switches performed again today - DH is paid at the end of the week and a couple more moves to do then and after that all major jobs are finished at home. Can't face any more disruption to my home - makes me feel very jittery and irritated. However the house will look better as a result and it may have helped its value slightly.
Hope you all have sun wherever you are Tilly x2004 £387k 29 years - MF March 2033:eek:

Hi Tilly,
If DD gets a job, once she has secured the job, she can state that she has holidays already booked for Christmas and I'm almost sure they are obliged to honour them.
We have sun !!!!!!

I HAD sun but left it oop north - though should be nice later :T.
Feet out till October
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

What a fabulous evening. Lodgers didn't make it back for dinner, so we have had a party evening in the garden. Fab meal, lovey evening, good bottle of wine and OJ - marvellous Tilly x x2004 £387k 29 years - MF March 2033:eek:

What a great evening, lodgers came in not long after posting last night and then we had a Wii gaming session. Very tired this morning as it was a pretty late night for in the week.
Sun is shining and I am working from home so can get my washing on the line. Such a wonderful feeling.
