Thanks so much for that kittenkirst - they're very similar to the poses we do yoga, which is great as it means there's nothing too different to learn.
Well done on your half marathon, not sure if I'd fancy trying one. :eek:

Great news on mortgage :j
I love all the little things on your post - it's easy to forget these when they become part of everyday life.0 -
Ooh I love Liz Earle. My skin has improved massively since using her products and they smell divine.
Fab news on the mortgage.

Hi Kittenkirst
Just catching up from the beginning!
Well done on the deposit refund and the mortgage!
Rome is lovely isn't it? Went for my 40th (pressie off DH) and would love to go back.
Good luck with all your endeavours.

Evening all,
No news on the mortgage front however we did pop to the show home today to show the gf's sister in law & nephews round (we live very close anyways!) hoping to hear early tomorrow otherwise I'll be insufferable every time the phone rings!
Today wasn't great MSE day....gf's car went to Merc for a service/MOT which was eye watering. Made only slightly bearable by the complimentary lattes and biscuits which we probably went a little overboard on
In other news, I'm very excited as I forgot I signed up to an eBay offer where any items listed & sold, eBay would give you a percentage back in vouchers...up to max of £30. So all my decluttering efforts in Feb & March meant I had a £30 voucher to use up today....I've just ordered a lovely looking doming set for my silver work. As it was postage free I spent £5 on a set of tools which will last me a very long time!!
Time to read a few diaries for inspiration on how not to spend anything before the 15th -payday, and then off to bed.
Night lovelies!!First home- Oct’16 until June’21: £170.995- Overpayments made £13,784 (25% extra!).
New forever home- Sep’21 £309,449 @ 2.05%. Plan to clear it before 30 years!!!!!!0 -

Yeah it definitely was, as I was going through a selling phase in there so would have been listing items anyway!
Fingers crossed for today and also hoping my friends mortgage appointment goes well today!First home- Oct’16 until June’21: £170.995- Overpayments made £13,784 (25% extra!).
