Morning all.

Good Morning!

we’re about buy a flat, but our old nemesis, the suddenly changing interest rate, is out there once again making a mess of our future budgets

dharrigan08:04:50

I've learnt just to come to terms with it. It has hit me hard too, but there's nowt that I can realistically do (apart from what I'm already doing)

simongray08:04:18

yeah, same… 🤷

thomas08:04:21

that sucks indeed.

simongray08:04:35

yeah, but it’ll be ok. It’s a difference of 1 percentage point and it may sort of balance out in the long run, but just sucks to have to pay more every month. If the interest rate experiences a significant fall down the line, we should be able to refinance. 🤞

Hope the purchase goes well, otherwise 😮

Morning

Lately we've started bringing my daughter in the cargo bike too along with her brother, so now the whole family can go on bike outings together. It's the form of transport that she least hates, so that's a plus too 😅

that bike looks like a ton of fun

Certainly the face of "least hate" 👆

simongray08:04:13

if you wait too long in an intersection, she’s starts complaining, but it’s better than the constant struggle of bringing her anywhere on public transportation or in a car

Oban, I've been there in 2011

Ludger Solbach15:04:21

I've been there 20 years ago and was also on Mull. Very nice. We even had perfect weather, got a sun burn. 🥵

borkdude15:04:39

We've also been to Mull and Iona (also sunburn)

ray16:04:42

Unlikely on this trip
