    Told pal would not go on expensive holiday in June. Didn't say why. Only you lot know why :)
    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 !!

    So sorry to hear that pony is still sore. On the plus side you have eliminated one cause, you just have to keep going for now until you know more. Give him a carrot from me and my pony. He's also undergoing investigations at the moment, silly pets to have really aren't they?!

    Well done on the holiday refusal, the UK is beautiful enough in the sun, there's no need to go on expensive trips away. Not until the mortgage is gone...

    Thanks Floppy.
    Mr Watty having spent 3 days considering what vet said has suggested that as Handsome Baby may be off work for some time another pony joins the family.


    I am easily distracted from work by research that has nothing to do with the day job :)

    So, as set by KC and ATB the MF date will be December 2016. 20 months to go :eek:

    Hi Watty, I missed this post - fab news and boy, those months will fly :)

    Sorry to hear about Handsome Baby - all these beautiful animals are such big parts of the family. Fingers crossed they find cause.

    Best wishes Tilly x x

    December 2016? That's just round the corner - that's a great target to work towards.

    Poor HB, i hope they can get to the root of the problem

    Poor pony - but great news on the mortgage (or soon to be lack of :D)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Hi Tilly, perhaps we need one much sooner than that? Maybe a bank holiday weekend virtual party on Sunday night? I'll bring the cava, hommous & cheese twists :D:beer:x
