Diary Mortgage Free Road To Change My Life

Hey LIL, just caught up with your last posts. Amazing news on the OP - and a huge amount! Well done. Can't believe it took so long, they really don't want you to pay off your mortgage do they!

Pats on the back all round for first OPs and here's to many more.

So today im round the house taken all the radiators off i was surprised how clean the water in the system was really ill blast them all the same to make sure the black sludge is not in there for when i put them back on :]
So now the plaster can finish the last bits upstairs tomorrow and it be done
