Thanks Rick and Maggs, I have bad days, emotional days, why me, more especially when we try to plan things, things we can't do at the moment, I suppose we are cash rich at the moment, bringing forward some money we would have used later on.
If I do survive to 66 (60 now) I will get a boost with the goverment pension, my wife is well catered for, and if things hit the fan, there is always the house, which we could down size, and still be comfortable later on if needed. The garden on this one is too big for us now.
So the main thing at the moment is to ensure we maintain the collateral of the house, so painting, replacing misted panels, looking after the garden, clearing the loft are essential jobs.
Also keeps our minds active.
The guys on this forum have been so supportive, and I have spoken to you guys more than my other friends, they don't know what to say. My wife has now started to invite our friends down, so I hope things will change.
With greated regards,
Richard ( Rustic) and wife Roz

the house will be what it is, you cannot think ahead for whoever purchases it, so please do not waste your efforts on this, as for local friends if they do not know what to say then they are not what I would call good friends, at the end of the day we gain very few really good friends if any to be honest, Rick
