    Four new tyres won't have been cheap... but suspect the noise had the potential to be more expensive! (And then gives the headache of whether it's worth it - at least tyres are consumable that you expect to have to replace.)
    Yes, although I was only expecting two of them.  Never mind, at least my car insurance renewal has decreased for this year, although I will check if there are any better deals out there.
    Back from a few days away that was really fun, although very tiring.  I definitely want more trips on my agenda and am even more determined to get my finances in order and start paying down the mortgage so that is possible.  Not sure it changes anything in the short term as I am already doing what I can.
    Off out today with the kids and then back to reality tomorrow...
