Just got round to reading the whole thing! :beer:

Wow - you're kind of like an MFW hero / legend or something

Love the nay-sayers/doubters at the beginning! You sure showed them!!! :T Well on your way to achieving your goal.

Ohhhh and your horse sounds a bit like my cats except they couldn't crush me with their body weight when they do their crazy stunts!

Is your lodger vain at all - you could try telling her that the heating will dry out her skin and she will get premature wrinkles?

Lol thanks, not sure about that, maybe just crazily obsessed!
I'm not keen on negative people.. I know I'm sometimes stupidly optimistic but better than being a mood hoover
That's a real good thought about the lodger and the heating (and yes she still has it on!) ... I might also say staying in the shower for hours will give her pruney wrinkle
You know what they say about pets being like their owners... Maybe they are crazy because of us :rotfl:

OMG my boy was soooo good on our ride out today! He was a different horse (shame I have no idea why!!)
My friend even popped him over a couple of jumps afterwards (I can't jump yet and I think there's more to it that close eyes and hold on tight ) He was perfect

Got a pay out from TCB today too...£111 for taking sky BB - it has taken 9 months to pay out! and £6 from my magazine subs (thanks GG) - it only cost me £6 to start with so free subscription and a free gift - bargain :money:
Hope everyone else is having a nice Friday - its nearly the weekend :cool:

Whoop whoop £120 from tcb into my bank account... Can't complain about that

Thanks house improver!

Well off work for most of this week for a bit of moonlighting at a famous festival! Free food and accommodation for the week too so very :money:

Knackered at the thought of it but gotta think of the goal!

Lol I wish! I literally have no talent at all!!
Doing some boring safety stuff, nothing to do with my day job but they seem to think I'm responsible :rotfl:

Just enjoyed reading your diary from day one. Inspirational! I don't think we'll get there as fast as you will (unless we can make the next baby share with a lodger??) but that's the beauty of reading a variety of diaries, everyone's got tips to steal! I'm off to check cash back websites.

You mention ever so often spending a long day in London and having to fork out for meals. I was having a nose at our company policies and if we're away from our usual office or travelling at unsociable hours we can claim up to £18 for brek, lunch or tea. Do you have a similar policy where you work? A colleague of mine buys a pack of rolls and a cream cheese when she's working at our office and has the next day's lunch free too!!

well, enjoy festival anyway, and a very ms way to do it. Attending a festival is on my bucket list for this year, but i forked out a fortune for 2 tickets - only to read an email appeal for first aiders to attend free - think we should have done that!
