Fab news on tax rebates...so long as you can get into bank account of course.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 !!0 -

I succumbed to the T&M flash sungold tomato seed sale!
Even though it means I won't make my target of 25 NSDs this month, I think I've got a fairly good deal
- Sungold tomato seeds reduced from £2.99 to 49p
- I also ordered 'scarlet' kale, 'rainbow beet' beetroot, British basil, pennisetum glaucom 'purple majesty', larkspur 'kingsize scarlet' and Californian poppy 'red chief' seeds
- the larkspur seeds were free
- I went through TCB
- I used a £10 GV that T&M sent me last year
Cost to me = £2.49 (incl. £1.95 P&P) :TMortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000
Mortgage-free: January 2021
Retired: June 2022 (186 months early!)0 -
