Thank you all so much. Such a relief. I feel I can "get on with things" now. It is a big tick for this month now that is done.
Celebrated by taking WattyDog to the farmers market where we had a sausage roll, a pesto and mozzarella puff and a caramelised onion and goats cheese tart. OK, I ate most of that and then suitable stuffed we collected two small loaves of bread from the artisan bakery and some curry from the Indian man who makes them and came home. (Oh yes there were a few dog treats handed out too).
It was a lovely trip out for us both.
Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

Clearly I am falling apart. Another tooth broke last night whilst I was cleaning them. I will discuss with dentist when I see him for the clean on Thursday and hopefully we can get a fix in on that one (with any luck it will just be removing the old filling and fitting a porcelain bit over it).
Was hoping I could go into April with the worst of the dental work behind me but clearly not to be. Luckily I have some money put aside for tax so I can use that for the dentist and then start saving for the next tax instalment.
