    I am indeed. I believe it is out on sale on 3rd/4th November....

    Its good to have mini goals, they do seem more achievable, and still give you something to look forward to (and sometimes its nice to treat yourself to something when you reach these mini goals). You'll be there before you know it. I cant believe its come round so fast for me, I remember when I had "16 months to go" up on my desk at work!!!

    Crikey! Is this an article about your successful battle with debt, or are you a journalist?

  • Hi ms_london,

    I am away this weekend (off to Bournemouth then Southampton to catch up with friends) but just wanted to say an early WELL DONE. Have only recently started to post here, but followed yours (and others) progress with interest!

    Enjoy your debt-freeness and all the extra money!

    Take care,
