..... the "repel-boarders" manoeuvre was "almost" successful.

My son baulked at sorting his house out enough to have his kids sleep & live there, while accepting it's good-enough for him to rough it as he has been doing for 6 weeks.
The 4Metre worktops were sanded and oiled by my missus in preparation for being fitted next week.
The upstairs landing is a filthy "tip" as the bathroom works are causing mess which is being trodden all over the house.
There's a 56" wi-fi connected led TV on the wall in the lounge so the kids can have Netflix & other online entertainment sources.
Place just needs some rounding out.

Bastards are back here for a bath.

I think the kids are "fine" with the adventure. It's my son that's being awkward.

Surely it is your son's responsibility to provide for his own family up to the standard that he has chosen, not for you or anyone else.

Well that’s another moto gp race not to miss. That was a difficult thing to decide to do

He did the right thing!

I don't think MM should return to MotoGP as the races are far more fun without him.

Haha yes the one's on the trailer to match the disco, I blame my fuzzy head from last nights
alcohol intake for not making myself very clear.

Feel much better now ive had a couple of beers
& a rum.

Whilst I agree with your sentiment I am for too lady-like to put it quite in the same way.

We know that DD. The world needs ladies like you, and if I ever met you I would be the perfect gennelman and only swear when it slipped out!

Do it but give em enough notice to avoid any fine. (Presumably you mean early pay off penalty or somesuch?) Three months is normal. Yep sure tis worth it, we did it on two houses, never regretted it. In fact it helped us get the place in France. And make sure the interest is worked out daily and thus drops as you pay back the capital, used to be called an "australian" mortgage. So you pays it off faster. (Daresay all are like it now but they weren't when we were doing it.)
Go for it!
