Making chicken feed of my mortgage
Comments

I joined the WI in September and love it. I think things vary from group to group. Mine is about 50 strong and has a very wide age group - 20's to 60's (I'm 40's). A lot depends on the Group's Committee too. My advice would be go along and give it a try and if that group doesn't suit you there may be another you can attend.

Guess what arrived yesterday MWC:D Although, I will have to now cut back in other areas to negate the damage.
Thank you, and I'll repay the favour in some way!!!

I also received a rather nice diary from t*n*s which was a bit of a surprise, as I am no longer a RM survey 'employee'.

I've had enough of sitting on my backside and I'm actually looking forward to going back to work on Monday :eek:
Plan of action for today:
- go for a walk after it's stopped raining - will probably be doing this in the dark!
- clean bathroom
- dust/hoover throughout
- scrub kitchen floor
- iron clothes for next week - it's going to be a struggle to get up at 06:00 and I don't want to have to iron something to wear as well!Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

"lodger" still unidentified - but there's definitely something up there... no poo or signs of nibbling but it has been digging up the loft insulation...
