Thank you very much shadow, that's given me food for thought.... ha! And inspiring that it can be done if we get organised. I've had a look at the Old Style board for cooking for dummies help for me too.

I'm awful at this MSE lark. Had put some clutter in the hallway meaning to take it to the charity shop. After Watty's success with her china I thought I'd had better check whether anything was of any value, indeed £100 of what I had always thought was tat from a local sculptor.
Perhaps I need to learn how to use e of the bay.Mortgage Apr 18 £417,894 BTL Mar 18 £162,857

I was doing mine this morning. They've decided that spring is finally on its way and have started moulting, which given we've had a week of rain and they're not rugged, means they were PLASTERED!0

Hippo indeed! But Very Nice livery lady spent an hour grooming him yesterday so we had quality time over an apple instead. Thankfully his coat is growing too, I need to hide my awful job of clipping.

My first horse (TB mare) spent a winter with an arrow on her side because the clippers gave out and then I couldn't be bothered to fix it (and thought it was funny). She was less amused.0 -
I have seen a few odd jobs thanks to broken clippers, unfortunately I only have myself to blame for this one! I am awful at doing the lines on the legs so tried to go to his knees and blend it in..... wrong.
Finally narrowing down my remortgage options, whilst trying to keep the future bright. I might even be able to start overpaying properly since Hoss arrived.Mortgage Apr 18 £417,894 BTL Mar 18 £162,857
