    And he can turn just about anything into a reasonable wine.

    I suppose I should have been more specific. I am referring to the generic penny pinching beer brewing kits.
    Homemade wine/cider/mead however is a different story.

    I don't think that I could ever be that person.... The one that forsakes every creature comfort to pay off the mortgage by sometime next year. If I don't have at least a six pack in the fridge and at least one cafe' supplied espresso a week . I start to get all jittery. ( And no-one can convince me that home brew is a suitable alternative to decent store bought).
    I also suppose that by admitting my lack of financial fortitude I should now stop questioning some peoples right to a community services card. Even if I did see the car that they turned up in, and I did overhear their address when paying for their child's swimming lessons.........Am I just becoming a begrudging old sourpuss?

    I have to agree with you whole heartedly Sofie. The term that was was the most important to our family when it came to the term of our fixed rate, was the number of years 'till our wee girl is school aged. Knowing that our repayments are achieveable until a second income is an option is far, far more important.
    We do still however feel that we have some breathing space knowing that we bought in 1997 for $100k and the last valuation was $300k. With tose figures we should be able to live through at least one or two fixed interest rate blunders and at least walk out wit a roof over our heads.
