  • :hello: hi earthgirl, I lost mine elsewhere and found it really frustrating.

  • No way the old title was offensive. You are so close to mortgage freedom. What will you do then?

    Thank you all so much. I am back on track with my favourite people helping, means a lot!

    So today £3 spent on ds1 football class, £5 spent on swimming for me and kids. This is such a good deal, ds1 gets your play on the inflatable run and I teach ds2to swim. Major breakthrough today as he swam underwater and kind of dived down to collect dive toys as well. He was given the dive toys for Christmas and I asked to borrow goggles at the pool- they told me to keep them as the change in him was so miraculous- like something just clicked. Phew, I was about to sign him up for lessons at £29/ month.

    Boys had friends to play too this morning which was cheap and they really enjoyed. Maybe we ll just the number of friends next time as ds2 struggled a bit with the four boys.

  • Oh just "heard" about your diary disappearing - how awful, think I would feel they have just wiped out all my o/ps :eek:
    Yes, this is the reason - the system has a threshold and then auto-deletes. A combination of the removal of the occasional real spam post and accidental scrolling has resulted in some much loved threads disappearing. Good luck with your final push!

    If you press this in error or at all, a pop up asking "are you sure" or Please confirm :spam:ought to be enough to filter out the "pressing in errors" That way they get the "real" :spam: 's
    Hope they do this soon.
    Always have 00.00 at the end of your mortgage and one day it will all be 0's :dance:
