    I am off to check out yours now as I believe you started it. I should also have put read gg's diary in full but I have to admit to being daunted by the size of it...maybe a couple of pages a day!
    Don't waste your time. Just ask natty. She does a very good summary of it :D.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I am up to page 15 so not doing too badly, I normally use the thanks buttons to track but it won't let me! It is reassuring to see that you still have holidays too, even if they are in your own house. We could pay off so much quicker if we didn't go on holidays.

    That is the one thing I won't compromise - still try to do cheaply though :o.

    Today's job of talking to Mr AJM about OPing may have been taken out of my hands. He came down this morning and asked what I had been saying about OPing earlier in the week and weren't we doing it together :D Off to tell him the total, hopefully he will OP it today. I will report back later!

    Mr AJM has told me off for OPing so much and not telling him but has matched my payments today. I will leave until the end of each month now to OP and tell him so he can match it, I am hoping for joint monthly efforts of £250-500.

    Off to update MFW 2012.

    First day of the new year has gone well, we went for a lovely walk so have managed to stick to two of my wishes. Off to look into music magpie for selling clothes as that seems the lazy way.
