    Glad you are feeling better KC. Hope improvement continues.
    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 !!

    Yes thanks El, I'm fine - I walked into my little town centre today, as well as having a shower and sitting at the computer, so I'm properly knackered right now, but very glad I did it all.

    I also just remembered I hadn't yet bought the Senior Railcard - thats why I hopped back on here just now, so thats a £5 saving Martin blagged me, thank you Martin :)

    I hope everyone has a lovely New Year's Eve, the night and the year that they wish for themselves.

    Hello there KC, a very happy New Year to you


    Glad you remembered the Railcard, it was you who tipped me off about the £5 saving for when we renewed Mr Goldie's card, so it wouldn't have done at all if you'd missed out

    Thank you :j. We may have frightened her off now :rotfl:.

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
