Handed in gym cancellation today - have been there for many years but always said it was a luxury I would only keep up if it was cost effective and it's not now:( Still running lots so no intentions of becoming a couch potato but no point paying money for a membership I never use, eventually there will be some extra OPing money but I think it's a 3 month notice period, will try and get some use til then.Mortgage OP 2026 £350/2000Mortgage OP 2025 £7700/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

After discussion with LM the other night we agreed that we'd like to live together :smileyhea but can't at the moment as it isn't practical - too many kids and too few bedrooms - so decided that paying down our mortgages til I finish uni was the right thing to do but I have since found a house needing work and now looking at self build:rotfl::rotfl:.
