    Lovely to see you both.

    NSD#1 since DH spent money on his motor yesterday.

    I am so motivated at the moment. Please give me some ideas!!

    Ideally I need a job I can do from home...

    DH says he will buy me a mobile home if I want one that badly, but he is not living in one!!

    Ouch to the repairs - I hate cars!

    I think you should be a) a mechanic b) who runs her own filling station :)

    Well those are good ideas.

    I would make a great mechanic. If I could only work on Morris Minors with my Dad standing by.

    I see from my siggy that August 2016 sees my mortgage fix expire.
    This would mean no early redemption fees.

    Hmnnn.

    Hope all is well. Read the prayers in Church and fell down a hole. Not at the same time!

    I'm actually getting pretty addicted to HUTH again, I did go off it for a while and liked 'to buy or not to buy' but it seems to be on so often I can't help but watch it!
