Well done PaP - an admirable aim and I wish you well. :T :T
Have you looked at 'part-ownership'?I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

bunny, at the momment I am making an order for 100 wedding invites so really well. Not marketing the site yet because of this order but I will email past customers (mainly one from here) to ask if they would pop a sign up in a local shop and they can have a free card or such. Redone my website a few weeks ago so it looks swish now :rotfl:
isom, :j cant wait hehe, I owe you a pm btw, I will do it now
rog, Thanks hun. I am not saying thats all I want. Things change, but someday I would like a place I can call home, my home. Also if I have a 'bigger' aim I think I will be less likely to get to a point and splurge it all. Rog I have to a point but I though you can only do that if you are working in the public sector ie doctor/nurse/policeman etc etc. I did see a newbuilt flat in the paper as part owner ship but that was nearly the price of a regular flatI think its something I need to look into. Thanks
