    Seriously, I love that kondo thread. I'm a bit of a lurker there, because I don't have the energy to actually kondo, which seems to start with getting everything of one category into one place and going from there, but its definitely helped me with a few things, even though I'd decluttered a lot earlier this year.

    Catching up on news.
    Huge congratulations re new job :j
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Thanks all.
    Maybe Kondo is the way forward.

    Great to see you Watty!

    Today we managed to oversleep by an hour and then not realise for half an hour.

    It was a miracle that we all got where we needed to be on time.

    NSD. Sticking to diet not so good on the walks.

    eta £3 survey money to mortgage.

    How did they take your resignation?
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D

    I have found it :o.

    Well done :T.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)
