    Thank you Thank you!! 
    It’s all done and dusted. All gone. It’s a fantastic feeling and we haven’t quite worked out how to celebrate it, but we will do. Party at ours??! ;) 

    We are now planning next steps to pay into a decent EF, savings but I also hanker seeing 2028 as the year when I don’t need to work on anything I don’t want to... so I will be working and don’t plan to completely stop but I don’t want to be obliged to...not sure why I have chosen this year but that’s the working plan. Gives me some time to plot and ponder. 

    Last week was also filled with joy as the 2 teenagers both got accepted onto the next courses that they want to do and OH’s work trips which had to be conducted remotely worked... and went well. All in all a fantastic week when everything went better than we had even hoped for. 

    I hope everyone has had a good weekend. 

    Greetings from a very sunny Bristol :D
