    Lovely.
    Ironically we completely failed to light ours tonight.

    Hate to whinge but having ignored the fact i was feeling ropey, taken pony out and battled through ankle deep mud to muck out the paddock, it hasnt gone away.

    At least I know it is not alcohol related.

    Hope you feel better soon.
    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 !!
