    What a pain. But can I ask which company? We were quoted a 5 month wait for delivery of the shed we want to order  :o  and it seems like your company is quicker than that!
    I've PM you their details.

    Just caught up on your diary after you visited mine. My condolences on the loss of your parents.

    Good that you're sorting pensions out. Right now I am making the odd extra payment to pensions. From next summer once CC free plan to go full on at pensions and resolve EF and mortgage

    Glad to hear I am not the only one that’s would like a MOP for Christmas. DH doesn’t think this counts as a real present! 8 days to convince him.

    The computer says if I can find £104, I can reduce the mortgage to £87,999 on New Year's Eve...
    Guess I know what I want for Christmas! 🎅
