    That sounds like a fab deal! And ebay all that you don't need. I've found our surplus and stuff rescued from friends that would have been thrown out has sometimes sold well.
    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 !!

    We are up to our knees in mud too. And I've not ridden for ages either on account of the repeated rain and wind. Roll on spring indeed.

    I'm gonna have to get back on over the weekend and I'm dreading it! He is choppy enough as it is but with 10 days off (can't ride this week due to work) he is going to be a pain in the a££!! I'm really hoping this new yard works out coz at least I can chuck him on the lunge first if he's being a pratt!!!

    Another day, another dollar!
    In the big smoke today but drove in so at least get the petrol, early start and late finish so I feel I deserve it :p
    Forgot my blinking lunch tho - that's what happens when you get up at 5.30. Will now have to get an expensive and not so nice sarnie from somewhere. Hopefully I'll remember tomorrow!!
    No rain today apparently - hooooorrrraahhhhhh :D

    Its nearly the weekend!! Good thing really as I'm knackered today!
    Enjoying the new job but the travel is hard work and I guess its just hard learning new stuff....
    Remembered my lunch today so that's good and with petrol money (and no lunch to splash out for!) I'll make a profit of £30 on my travel - it helps to write that down as I'm desperately stuffing caffine in my face :)

    Thanks LGP :)
    It does feel nice!!
    Also working at home today so technically a saving. When I think about it - I get 3 days a week paid travel at work and then 2 days a week working at home so no travel costs at all. That's pretty good. I was paying about £250 a month just for work petrol!
    More to spend on horsey :D
