    16/25 for me today please.
    @satchmo1 you posted that you were on 16 on 19th Aug and then you posted two further AFDs on the 20th and today, so I think you are on 18, but please let me know if that is wrong! xxx :)

    wish i could make the connection that  I have a large glass of wine because I am tired and then am exhausted because I had the wine.  I mean I know the connection exists but the cycle does not break.  I need to work on this.
    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 !!
