    If I was dealing with what you are I would be having whisky for breakfast. Probably for lunch tea & supper too.

    It's lined up for breakfast @badmemory but I feel it's important to have a balanced diet and imbibe other booze at other times of the day

    Would probably be easier @WelshmansDaughter, if any countries are reading this and want to hire me as their planning consultant/project manager, I am available

    Thanks @Sun_Addict it has not been the sparkliest of days. The cabinets missing are just part of a long series of messages from the builder about things that need doing 😭🙄🥂

    Passes a cocktail for breakfast - it has orange juice in - for vitamin C and an olive as you need food - but all cocktails are strong and this will set you up for the day.

    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 !!

    Haha thanks @Watty1 🥂

    I'm going to try not to think about build this weekend and I'm certainly not doing anything about it unless absolutely necessary
