    Lovely flowers. 

    Clone spreadsheet adjustment - increase price slightly and send clones out with a bouquet as gorgeous.  Think will be a winner if we are all surprised by clone turning up with flowers :)
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!
