  • I *think* I have actually been quite good this week, as I can only remember two sins, both food related....

    We had a Chinese on Mon night cuz I had a pants day at work and couldn't be bothered to cook, and tonight we had a McD's.....
    I'm sure I'll rmemeber some more sins later

    Woooo, congratulations Toto......I'm so glad you said that too, as I think I was in the lead up until that point! :j

    I bet you do hun - when are you going ?

    Well there's the thing :D we've got tenants to put in there already, people we know so it's all good. We just can't move for the next year because of work so we're going to rent it out and save every spare penny to pay as much off the mortgage as we can. Once we sell the gear we won't be taking we'll pay it off all together. That's the plan anyway.

    We might go out for a week at the end of November just to say hello to it before it becomes someone elses home:rotfl:

    Don't forget you guys, that Martin said you could spend an extra £5 this week, for being good DFW supporters and offering to help pay for the cost of the site breakdown!

    So, Toto, that means you have only got to confess to £159,995, and Snaggles - it is only £4195 to confess to.

    See how much better that makes you all feel :rotfl:
