    Can't imagine you in a foul mood.
    Easy for me to say I know but it will be what it will be.

    Sneaks in quietly to say...............

    I got the job. Terms etc all to be thrashed out.

    Woop.

    DS also got some casual work at my work too, so he's got 25 hours this week.

    Double woop.

    Change mortgage on the 1st of the month, this knocks 1 year of the original mortgage but has a greater overpaying facility. So mission from this month onwards is to try and overpay to the max and watch the years drip off the mortgage.

    Triple Woop.

    More bonios all round I say.
