    @Watty1 - nice to see you around, even if it's not the most cheerful of updates. It's never too late for pensions, just a bit more expensive 
  • Hi @Watty1, sorry to hear things are a bit of an upheaval atm.  Hope you can move on with your new plans, and new life.  Sorry, don't remember if you disclosed you age, but I'm sure your much younger than me, and I bought a house at 52 yrs of age, so anything is "do-able".  As @Humdinger1 said, we are all here for you.  x
    Always have 00.00 at the end of your mortgage and one day it will all be 0's :dance:

    Yes indeed, we are all here. I think I was 52 when pension became my priority. Totally do-able with the sort of application you will bring

    58 years old here :)    Filling in forms for mediation and maybe Mr W will show up for a session.  
    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 !!

    Not been great at keeping up with diary.  Probably should  as things have gone down hill dreadfully.  Ex moving back in.  Has been threatening it for abut 4 weeks says will do it today.  Am now sick with anxiety and can't cope with doing anything.  Haven't done anything for 2 hours.   Ex refusing to settle at all.

    Very sorry to read this Watty and don't want to read and run. Have you checked with your lawyer at all? I'm sure you will have just sounds an awful situation. Is there somewhere you can go or are the animals keeping you there? Can you invited a friend over to keep you company (might reduce the anxiety). Thinking of you.
