Hypno's recession busting debt diary.....

hypno06

What would be *really* nice is to have the smell of bread baking and fresh coffee being made too.....just to make it really motivating

Hypno: "I have been working on the basis of paying £2750 a month"

Karmacat: _pale_


I am *full* of admiration for what you're doing, Hypno, and like the others am inspired to do something similar. I'll drivel on about it on my own thread, as my debt is embarrassingly small for me to be so concerned about it compared to yours. You've definitely got me going tho!

Ah yes, KC, but then I am sort of in danger of "bigging myself up" before a fall!

Trouble is that I could just set my normal target of paying the current minimums......plod along nicely for the next 4 years, by which time my fixed rate will be about at an end, so I can get a nice remortgage on my existing house, which is ok, and live happily ever after without a great deal of "effort".

Or I could do it the hard way :rotfl:

Karmacat

:rotfl: But I *like* the hard way! Stand by for a deluge of *really* filthy jokes....

I'd definitely do it the hard way hypno or you'll always wonder if you could have done it. It really helps breaking it down into little chunks doesn't it. My aim at the moment is to pay something everything day even if it's only a pound which is helping me to not buy stuff I don't need. Saying that i've got my hols on thurs do lets hope I keep my MSE head on whilst away. I think i'll be stealing your idea of squares once i've paid of the extra part of my mortgage. Great idea!

Have you any virtual chocolate you can send my way...i'm in need!! xx

What'd be REALLY nice for the grid would be not to have the house superimposed but to have it under the squares so each time you remove a square a bit more of the house is visible (Sorry Snaggles if that's something really hard or impossible to do-just mentally mumbling aloud here)

thats kinda what i did to be honest although i didnt put it just as well as that

My colleague has just won £10 on a scratch card, so bought me a bar of dairy milk.........:D

In other news, I have just booked in to have the cats "done".....£99 for both of them :eek: Ah well, it has to be done, and will come out of next month's budget so a bit of time yet.....

peb

free chocolate - great

Cats bill - not so great - have you asked if they are planning on doing a BOGOFF?

Snaggles

It might be possible to cover the picture totally and then uncover one square at a time, but I don't know how to do that, sorry.

I've emailed you a grid superimposed over the picture though - hope it's okay.

BOGOF cat neutering.........wonder if it can be done through quidco too.....!

Snaggles, thank you, but the attachment doesn't open (prob my techie skills again!). I have emailed you back!

I am very excited at the thought of having "my" house on my grid.....:D
