    Wow, you're smashing it @KajiKita.  Re Chloe, you might try adjusting how you communicate.   A herald in full regalia, blowing a golden trumpet and carrying the request (embossed and gilded) on a velvet cushion is the only acceptable method. Onwards and upwards love Humdinger xx

    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 !!
