    I'm all shopped out (well not quite, I just need to order a few things online ;))

    Treated myself to yummy M&S salads for dinner :drool:

    Mr MWC is STILL in the UK :eek: Flight delayed 3+ hours due to an unfixable technical fault, now waiting for a new plane...

    well he got there ....will he need to stay longer??
    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 !!

    No, he's already booked on the Sunday evening flight home as it was considerably cheaper than coming back on Friday evening (:) for his employer's travel budget, :( for his wife!)
    Did he end up walking and swimming there???

    That would have been quicker!

    Let's hope that he can claim a second lot of flight delay compensation :money:
