    It sounds like everything has been going well for you! And, similar to us, like you've been caught up in living and making the most of life (and work opportunities - was the polo good?) after the quiet of the pandemic. :smiley:

    Love a good game of Polo.  Haven't been to watch for ages though (since an old pal gave up managing a polo club for an upmarket complex of flats and so no more free tickets!)
    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 !!
