  • Well done TPA fantastic news!!!!! :) :j:j:j:j

    Did you have a few of these to celebrate ??? :beer:

    Ready for your top-tips to MF-dom once you've come down off your cloud of having done it! :D
  • Thank you all, it still seems a little unreal!:o

    We have not been able to tell anyone, in real life! So it fells like a naughty secret lol!

    We really should sort out our garden as it has been Beagled! Needs landscaping and dog proofing....so that is next on the list!:eek:

    As for work....I'm only doing 3 days now anyway (since January) as much as I would love to drop to 2..i think that would be a bit lazy lol:p

    Holidays.....this is a tough one, I love being at home, am a real home bird......love being with my dogs. If we went on holiday I would have to put them in kennels.....I am really not keen on this, My parents would have the older one, but the young one is a handful! So nothing planned on that front lol! :o

    I don't think we will change much, there are things that we would like to do around the house, not major things....except hubby hankering after a conservatory:eek:!
    New blinds for the main bedroom and living room, painting main bedroom, new carpet for hallway and stairs now gorgeous cat has gone :(......the trouble is I am NOT tidy! So if we have anyone in to do any work I will need to change this:eek:

    I would love another dog, but sensible head says two is enough!

    I bought the Amazon deal for Farmison last week...large box of meat n veg for £19.95 plus £5.95 delivery, I was VERY impressed!

    Anyway enough waffling!

    Hello Raddish.….can you please point me in the right direction of your diary please?


    We are still MF (on paper) ie offsetting the final amount, just in case.
    I really need to look into the pros and cons of paying it off 'proper'. I don't know why, but I find the whole thing a little daunting, even after all these years
