I haven't, but it does sound super-exciting. Difficulty would be getting someone to come along with me, so I don't feel like a complete loser on my own!(I do take a solo holiday every year, but not sure how I feel about an organised tour on my own)Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)
Cleared 🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️!!! In 5 years, 1 month and 29 days
Total amount repaid: £72,307.03. £1.10 repaid for every £1.00 borrowed
Finally earning interest instead of paying it!!!1 -
Surely if your crime drama viewing has taught you anything it's that doing an organised tour on your own would lead to at least one murder, one whirlwind romance, or three people you already knew being coincidentally on the same tour, or indeed all of the above!South_coast said:I haven't, but it does sound super-exciting.
