Hi LJ, hope the pipes are sorted out at this stage, My brother has had two burst pipes over the bad weather, and it has been a nightmare to get someone out to fix it!! Hopefully the car wont be as bad as you think. Congrats on the amazon sale :j

Oh Dear, car has been fixed and it needed alot doing, the bill came in at £385:(

I definitely cannot send much in the way of overpayment this month:mad:

Never mind, we now have a car that "potentially" can last us a few more years.

ouch Lou, hope that's it for a while.

Not much progress going on here, managed to sell another book on Amazon for £12, they do take a fair cut though but I should still end up with around £9 after postage.

Only 1 more book to sell now which I hope will sell soon.

I bought a cheapy mobile from Mr T (£14) to grab 1000 bonus clubcard points, its very basic but should fetch a few quid on fleabay and the 1000 points are worth £40 in holiday vouchers;)

We "may" have some money coming our way soon but I shall keep you posted as MIL is wanting to get her finances in order and she mentioned us getting some of our inheritence early, bit wierd but its up to her I guess.

Thats it I think.....

If she gives it to you in cash and lives for another 7 years then its free of inheritance tax - maybe this is what she's thinking?

I doubt it, she has the memory of a goldfish so I think that she just wants it sorted before she forgets where it is:o Its not much, just a few thousand.

Finally got to the end of this thread!!

Louise, you have done brilliantly since you started as a MFW & I've picked up loads of tips from reading your diary, so thanks very much for that.

I'm a MFW newbie, & not quite ready to start making OPs, although I'm positively itching to get started!! I'm already becoming obsessed & have mad-cap ideas coming out of my ears!! :rotfl:

Couple of Qs:

Is the motor-home still something you are considering when you are MF??
I think it's a brilliant idea, & would love something like that, something to aim for

Are you still using your remoska regularly??
What size did you get & would you recommend them?? We are a family of 4 from the North of England too, btw

Good luck with your MFi3 mission, I'll keep following your progress.
