I think unless you have the 100,000 and 250,000 on the boards then anything in the tens of thousands need very serious consideration. £38k in my book is a lot, and to me it seems a bit greedy holding out for more. Obviously didn't pay off.

Not really, if they came with nothing, why not gamble for more, after all, its the object of the game

Mind you, If OH went on it, he says he would gamble on the princible, I came with nothing etc.

I said thats ok, but if you lost the blooming lot & come home with 1p then youre a dead man :o)))

We all shout "DEAL" but it must be very hard to decide , depends what you need I suppose, the guy last night wanted his wife to take longer mat leave, but not on £750

In that case Ros he should have dealt imho. £38k could be 2 years salary for a lot of people.

probably was a good chunk of a year or 2 for his wife unless she had a very well paid job, Ros xx
