    Paid a small £15 off the mortgage yesterday, just to keep the momentum up. It came from selling unwanted items. I also listed a few bits of the bay if e over the weekend as it was free listing, don't expect to get a lot if anything for them but it's helping with the decluttering process that I'm attempting.

    Well done on the OP, Yukki.
    I thought about using the balancing item you suggested but then Gallygirl and Lois galloped in to the rescue.

    I think I've just about got it sussed.:T

    I think I could just about squeeze the moving fees from savings, but it would leave us with not a lot so I'm reluctant.

    Sooooo annoying, I know we'll move one day, but will it be now, next year or in ten years? Wish I could get a glimpse into the future lol

    Hehe thanks guys who commented in norfolkdream's thread re a dog in a terraced house. I know we can and we probably will to be fair, but I was thinking of the dream which would be not having to traipse through the house to get to the back garden with a dog messing up the carpets etc.

    Who knows......
