Thanks guys im going to build some shelving at the bottom to put some towels/bedding so will look better in time hehe
No really plans this week with the house plaster still there till weds/Thursday so plan is to get painting next week after a good clean up
Overall the place is looking really good and super happy but need to order a kitchen which i should ideally wait to get payed this month to do it so im not using all my house fund
Im really getting bored of not having my own car as well but i need to scarifies something and unfortunately its the car :[ boooo
I could use 2k from EF as 8k is more than enough then build it back up over the next few weeks

Well I used to have a serious banger and if you imagine your driving your TT now and again it really does work. I've never had a nice car but I've dreamt I'm driving a sports car many times- then I look down and saw the vauxhall Astra steering wheel and my imaginary bubble burst! Lol
I have a Masda 3 now and I really like it, and hoping it will last me a lot of years!!!!Mortgage balance Feb 2015 start of MFW Journey-£245316.06/Aim to be mortgage neutral 2022 — Target for May 2024 14 Year Target Balance MF50 = £89,535 — Mortgage Balance £106, 000—Target for May 2024! £89,535
