            You are not a whimp - these past few weeks using crutches and everything taking at least twice as long as usual to do has made me think how much I've taken for granted - and how tough things are for some lovely folk who have struggled a long time.January spends - £587.580

            Here is a thought.
 Does anyone think it is a good idea to take some money from a 0% card(apart from handling fee) & pay it off my mortgage?
 Thoughts welcomed.

            I know people who've done it but I like to have only one source of debt, so wouldn't go for it personally...0

            I don't think it's a good idea. It's just shuffling debt about. Then you'll have two debts - mortgage and credit card, could get messy.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0
