    It's actually flippin' unpleasant. 8.30 here and already 28 degrees and very high humidity - considering of going inside already. Even the Spanish person we meet say 'mucho calor' (very hot). Though none have said 'mucho caliente' which is a different kind of very hot. Even though Mr GG had his sarong on yesterday :rotfl:.

    Under 2k :j :j
    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 !!
