Our life has had major changes, hubby has been made redundant so he has decided he will retire early.
Then we had to decide what to do with the future in mind,.....move to a bungalow waiting for old age or to stay in the house we love and future proof it, so we have decided on staying and doing a renovation job.
Our house is a very modern 4 bed, we are going to downsize it to a three bed and extend one of the bathrooms into the 4th, then convert the garage ,stick a full length extension on the back so we can have an open plan kitchen/diner/family room. We need some of the extra space to have a " Beam me up Scotty" lift installed. No doubt there will be some very frazzled nerves along the way

Superb, Staying put is the right decision, it costs so much money to move now as well just a waste especially if you are happy where you are

Indeed Cherie, plus all our neighbours are very friendly.
Just means we are spending the kids inheritance.

Since this post the total rise is 1660 points for the 3 ftse's in total since June 22nd
That equates to around £500 billion? an astonishing rise in wealth of our top companies? as yet unreported by mainstream news?

Ftse100 increased by 420
Ftse 250 increased by 260
Ftse 350 increased by 530
so if 15 billion is 1%
ftse 100 6793 (6373) 6,6% = £98 billion
ftse250 17460 (17200) 1.5% = £22.5 billion
ftse 3750 (3220) 16.45% = £246 billion
According to the calculations of the news therefore we should be worth £366 billion richer! The gdp up to june 22nd was up, the unemployment was down to 4.8% and the steel works have effectively been saved by devaluing the pound? Yet NONE of this is mentioned in the mainstream news, where all we hear from them and ex goldman sachs man, mark carney, the the governor of the bank of england, is talking the economy down and more quantitative easing to encourage the banks to lend? umm printing money creates inflation and makes us all poorer? the banks havent loaned money for 8 years and no one saves with them either? They use an absurd credit scoring system which prevents prudent people getting loans. The powers that be at the top always say dont talk down the economy yet thats all theyre dooing? So whats their real game?

The 3 x ftse's have now increased by a world record 1930 points since the day before brexit

that equates to way over £500 billion
the unemployment figures are great at 4.9% and we have more in employment that ever and only a tony 2% are on zero hours contracts so thats another red herring that socialist lecturers spin to their gullible students

the manufacturing increases in august is the highest for 25 years oh and british steel has been saved by the movement in the pound and the increased wealth in their companies. this is pretty much ignored by socialists and remainers lol....the flexibility in the pound shows exactly why the british economy is strong and the european economies are bankrupt , because they have no flexibility as they have no currency...flexibility is a must in economics or you go bankrupt
