    Sorry to hear you're so ill, Tilly, sleep will help, of course, I hope you can take it easy and get the time you need to heal.

    Poor soul - hope you're soon on the mend x
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Poor you Tilly. Hope you are on mend today.
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!
  • Thanks for your lovely posts. I know a few people on MFW have had this bug. It really knocks you off your feet.

    I'm hoping tomorrow is a better day.

    Night, Tilly x x
