First day of the holidays and we are determinedly doing nothing but the essentials.
It is quite hard after a long term of racing around to actually slow down.
I need to get a redemption statement to see if remortgage is worthwhile.0 -

Uuuurrghhhh to flying ants. I have wasps swooping in and out of bush thing which located close to the front gate, and am actually wishing for colder weather so they p*$$ off :rotfl:February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)

Weirdly, I don't like killing any insects - even wasps, who are the scum of the earth. I would rather they just died naturally so roll on winter :rotfl:February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)

Congratulations on the permanent job. You can really get stuck into it and put some long term plans into place. Nice to have headspace in the holidays to think about it too.
SquirrelPaid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
Still thrifty though, after all these years:D0 -
Thank you.
It is ugly confession time.
I have a blog on tumblr almost exclusively devoted to Paul Darrow.0
