All welcome to Ye Olde Milestone Inn! The bar is open!

:beer: :beer: :beer:

Share your milestones here, and let's all raise a virtual (or real, your call, the landlady takes no responsibility for any resulting real life drunkenness) glass to each others success.

To start us off *tings spoon on side of glass to quiet down rowdy DFW crowd of revellers* my debts have this month ducked under £10,000

*downs pint of martini and puts glass on head, staggering slightly*

    I have paid off Newday! I also have enough to replace my old cooker! TBH - it was guzzling so much electricity I reckon it will save money to have the new one! It had one setting - full on and even this meant a normal casserole took over 3 hours to cook! I planned for it and used some of job number 3 earnings to pay for it.

    Milestone thread is fab idea btw.

    I'll have an extra dry Martini, just waft the vermouth over the gin and put the olive on the side please ;)

    My milestone is that our debt went under £1000 this month :j

    Another drink to celebrate? I don't mind if I do :beer:
