    Congratulations Kerri! Nearly everyone on the forum is due around the same time too! We're going to have such a ghost town around here when everyone goes on maternity leave!

    Thanks for the well wishes for the Aunt everyone - Mum went to visit yesterday, and said they are really hopeful she will make a near-full recovery, but it will take time. It could have been a lot worse, but she has started physiotherapy today, and I hope that is a good sign. Mum reassured me she is having lots of visitors, and that we will go visit her when she gets to go home.

    We'll all be on here even more!! Glad to hear your aunt is on the mend :)

    Hmm, I've seen a flat I really really like, ticks all my boxes, near enough to the city centre, next to a nice park, not a bad area, parking, separate kitchen, and it's only £65k which is less than I had budgeted to spend. It's a shame I just don't have £4k sitting around for a deposit :(

    I did show it to the OH, and he thought it looked great too, but I still don't know if he's in his blinkered mode and forgetting that he's not just buying for himself.

    men:rotfl: i think maybe you need to makei t clear to him that you thought you'd be buying together. i think men sometimes need to be told straight!

    i have seen lots of lovely houses for sale but we're nowhere near where we need to be yet so i don't know why i bother looking! gah :p

    Yeah!! Huge congratulations!! :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

    You can take beconase nasal spray for hayfever, I am taking it.
    Thank you :) I don't really get on with nasal sprays as they dry my sinuses out and then I feel like I've got a sinus infection for days. I took 1 piriton, fell asleep and since then my hayfever has been very, very much better.

    Well DFW news of the day is I've been sent a BC 0% for 5 months card. I applied for it after seeing it in the newsletter and thought "why not?" and they have given me £800 limit. So I'm going to shove £800 of hard earned cash onto my vanqu1s this month and use the BC for the spends I would have done. Although I have also worked out I can pay even more off the vanqu1s this month because OH is sharing the bills 50/50 for the first time since we've been together, hurray for him now working :D
