    Did you take pictures of it at its worst?  That way he can see the extent of it and why a lot of his things would have needed to go

    Nothing worse than a broken knob 🤣🤣🤣🤣
    I know! 😂 it just twizzles round ineffectually and occasionally comes off in your hand 😱🤭🤭😂😂😂😂
     
    You just know this made me snigger inappropriately, yes?! 


    you were not the only one :)
    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 !!

    Hi! 

    I have to say I also snorted with laughter at the knob issues 😊. Glad you’re busy week is over and Mr C Snrs house is getting sorted.

    Did the replacement knobs work or are they also just twirling?
    DON'T BUY STUFF (from Frugalwoods)
    No seriously, just don’t buy things. 99% of our success with our savings rate is attributed to the fact that we don’t buy things... You can and should take advantage of discounts.... But at the end of the day, the only way to truly save money is to not buy stuff.    Money doesn’t walk out of your wallet on its own accord.
