    I made it to Debt free about 3 weeks ago.  Wanted to celebrate in the pub!!!
     *sigh

    Thanks to all who supported me especially the very special person who is Beanielou.
    About to put myself on the wall of fame!
    This is the best news Butti, I know it’s been a long slog with twists, turns, trips and 🍻 

    So proud of you! Hope you at least get a beer 🍺 to celebrate 😃

    I know this is over a year late, but congratulations! Thought I'd say it now because the post is still open. Before it gets closed, how are things now a year on? It's mental how much you can achieve if you really focus and put your mind to it! :)

    P.s. Please write a book!

    Life is interesting.
    i've had a kiss on the cheek from someone in the pub tonight.
    I really like him. I hear he's split up from his wife.
    We shall see!

    In other news, his friend who was standing next to him had actually seen me try to drive away from the petrol station today without paying. Bless him he didn't tell anyone. I did remember after I'd driven about 10ft!

    I do have a lot on my mind. I have to go in sometime in the next 6 weeks for removal of half of my thyroid. It seems the scan and biopsy are inconclusive. So I can have removal and testing now or in 3 months. As someone whose mother died because her initial mammogram was 1-2 years too late it's a real no brainer. Having said that I hope they don't leave me with a scar like the Kergan from Highlander!
    Ah the man with the wee kiss.
