  • Hi DFW, sounds as though you had a really busy day yesterday:eek:.

    I can't wait to get back into a routine, don't quite know how the kids are going to manage the early mornings though.

    You sound really upbeat at the minute, it must feel like a huge weight has been lifted now you are debt free?

    Take care PWPS.x.
