Evening Beanie. The cough really seems to have taken a grip of you doesn't it
Good idea re. the credit card, a SO will mean it will eventually get cleared without you having to think about it too much. Do you have many more mortgage payments left before you're reached your mortgage free date? xx 0 -

Wow that's fantastic. We don't make any extra payments and have just over 10 years to go I think. Too much put on for home improvements in our earlier years, or it would have been done and dusted by now
Ah well. xx 0 -

Yes, it is fantastic in itself.
However had I still been with ex DH it would have been paid off many many years ago.
Anyway, I dont think about it very often which is just as well.:(:(
Basically when we split up I started all over again & now the end is in sight.

I've just watched it as well Beanie, it's heartbreaking to see how people are 'living'. Did you see the one last week where the bloke was out hunting rabbits so he could eat and that poor man who could hardly see and had been sanctioned, it's shameful. xx0
