A pleasure and likewise, you egging me on got me to an early finish too, for which I'll be eternally grateful :T
Alex, Lilt, Beanie, Broggers, Skinny - Thank you so much for the lovely holiday wishes. Even GP said I need this holiday and he'd prescribe 4 weeks if he could. Ooh yes please :rotfl:
Blood test results were normal, so nothing to see there. He wants to let Neuro complete his investigations before looking at anything else. Got another stash of HRT and Propanolol.
Never packed so many age related things before - reading glasses, HRT, skin creams and so on :rotfl:
It's been a full on eve and just my handbag to tip upside down and probably bin most of it :rotfl:
Hitting bed as soon as I can, we'll be up at 6 and gone by 9am, but I bet I have time to sneak in here first and bank account shall surely be checked inbetween
Take good care all and have a fabbie Easter - I really hope the weather is decent over the Bank Holiday here for you guys - we get back on the Monday.
Bye for now :wave:Back on the DFW Wagon:

Evening from the yellow bird islands
Wi-fi is s-l-o-w so a short message for a change
Great hotel, fab suite, DS in his element with 2 flat screen tvs on the wall :eek:
Weather good, cloudy morning, sunny afternoon and hot :T
Erm, not been overly MSE though. First purchase on arrival was a kettle for our room to go with the travelled tea bags
. Was good at the airport - DS had a full English, we added the toast for £1 and I made a sandwich from that and the bits DS didn't like on his plate
Restaurant food pretty good - getting my 5 a day with plenty of fruit dipped in the chocolate fountain, as you do
That was short for me, wasn't it? :rotfl:
Hope everyone doing well, am trying to keep up with diaries, though Lilt, yours moved quicker than the speed of light :rotfl:Back on the DFW Wagon:

Glad you're having a good time, Ali.
I forget where it is you've gone but I'm glad the weather is nice, you're not missing anything here as the weather has been awful today.

Alex - we're in Lanzarote, just sat watching a boat come into the port (Playa Blanca) from Fuertaventura
Lilt - I caught up on the dire weather outside but you swopped your indoor for outdoor activities with Jelly. Mad person you!!
Broggers - Certainly are a-chilling, moving from sofa to dining chair to pool lounger and back again :rotfl:
It's mortgage update day :j so here we go with scores on the doors.
£900 capital gone to the Spanish Bank, taking £121,380 to £120,480. The last month of the £120sand another month chopped off the end date bringing it to May 2027 :j
9.71% paid off - next month I shall finally hit the 10% mark
LTV drops a tad to 46.34%.
Have to wait until I get back to Blighty for the interest bit, but am not in a rush hearing what the weather is like over there
Shall update sig if the wi-fi holds and then off to breakfast in our shorts and teesBack on the DFW Wagon:

Yes rather bonkers, but in the grand scheme of things it got her some exercise, fresh air etc and that was much more needed than Unicorn Poo
shall do that on Friday if the weather is bad, and watch a movie with her
Amazing financials!! And a month disappearing off the end at a time is incredible!
Still so very envious... enjoy the breakrelax! You earned it!
