    You're very welcome - these are tough times (which is sort of what the book's about, in a travel sense).

    Right, the last of the sun is shining in the window, I *will* have 10 minutes in the garden - have a nice evening :)

    Whoppiee!!! Book in print. Go you. Downloaded will read and review nicely so you get lots of orders and more books demanded :)
    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 !!

    Hee hee - I utterly disapprove as well! - went to do the glass recyle & it started spitting - not raining full on but just enough to be annoying!

    We too have been using the appliances full-tilt today - 2 loads in the dishwasher (it's a half-size so really that's one load) - 2nd load of laundry in - 1st is upstairs in the bathroom with the dehumidifier running on the laundry setting - microwave heated up some leek & potato soup - yum - just right for chasing away the grey-day chills!

    Book is set to deliver to both reading devices!:j:jCongratulations on completing it - we are both well impressed!

    Have a lovely day at country Kew filled with beauty for the eyes & fresh air for the soul!

    Aw! Beanie, glad you got it, RT, pleased for you two as well :) I feel very odd about it, but if you're going to be a writer and you want to get your stuff out there, you have to let people read your stuff :D

    If anyone has any feedback they don't want to put into a review, by all means pm me on here ....

    Um, I didn't get to Kew in the Country :o the weather continued horrible, windy too, and it was just *difficult* to be out there, not pleasurable. So a combination of gut instincts enabled me to miss the bus, have a little walkabout in the *very* local posh village, and get home again to warm up. Ended up spending the day pootling about inside the house, didn't even go into the garden because it got *really* rainy, just like today started.

    Summer Time, ha! Never mind, I'm still having a nice weekend :)

    Downloaded book, KC, but only had time to flick through so far. Real life has a nasty habit of scuppering my plans:(. From what I can see, though, you must have worked really hard on it, so much research needed.

    Massive congratulations:A. Will definitely write a very positive review:j once I've read it all.

    I hope your weekend is going well. Absolutely teeming down here :( so I hope the sun is shining wherever you are today.

    P.S. Your last post appeared just after I'd written and posted this! Sounds as if the weather isn't being too kind to you either.

    :hello: Hello CBC

    Yep, its not teeming here, but its grey and blowy and drizzly, absolutely nothing that makes you (me!!! :D) want to go outside.

    Hope you're having a good day too tho :)
