    KC - Thanks for making me look at my sig- I needed reminded to look back instead of always forward.

    Lucky- I'm def on target for the 19 year target balance by May 2016 because I have that set up as regular OP so anything better than that I'd be delighted!

    Thats very true about gumtree - I sold a six-shelf bookcase on there, no way I'd ever have put it onto ebay.

    I used to use gum tree a lot but haven't had much luck on it recently.

    Signature updated again. I was on holiday so wee bit late this month!

    Came home from holiday to the news that the business I work for is making most of its UK staff redundant by end of next year! Great - so need to pull the reigns in and brace myself! Lol
