    That's a shame! I was hoping you'd be back with a HUGE win and offer to pay off all our mortgages. Ah well, back to plan A, paying it off myself :rotfl:

    Hope you had a great (if expensive) time...sometimes a girl has to do what a girl has to do :)

    Hi

    I'm posting this here because I'm not sure where else to put this question. I have recently invested in a Macbook Pro thanks to interest free credit but I can't find a spreadsheet to log my mortgage that will open up. The spreadsheet on this site opens no problem. Is anyone else using one for a Macbookpro for their mortgage that they could give me a link to? I'm opening my old laptop to play with the spreadsheets there but it will be getting sold very soon. I don't have the skills to set up a new spreadsheet to log my mortgage. I have bought and installed 'numbers'.

    Thank-you
