    Yes, I have asked for it to be paid directly into a separate account.....still available in case of emergency but far enough away to be a deterrant to spending it on anything else!

    One of the cost cutting elements is to forego any skiing myself........but needs must!

    Good morning - dinner was nice last night - some of the best food I have tasted for a long time. Sadly, though, DS came down with a screaming migraine at 2am so I have had little sleep!

    My loan payment has come out but when I updated the snowball I was still £21 over the £50k mark so I have made another transfer to HSBC of £25 just to get it into the 40's......I have borrowed it from the bills account, so will just have to get it back there when new money comes in during the month.

    So......am into the 40s......another milestone on the journey to debt freeness. I thought I would feel elated typing the figures in, but I think I am just too tired for that :o

    Have a good day everyone x

  • That's fantastic Hypno!

    I'm not suprised that you are tired it's be a hard slog but at least the end is getting near.
