    Thanks MM, your very sweet. You are all such great people, its nice to know you can talk about things on this thread yet won't be judged.

    I;m hoping it will be before Feb 09, as my parents have wiped off the £1,400 as a chistmas gift, but i won't remove it from my sig until Christmas lol. So really, i only have just over 1K to pay. But with 2 big holidays coming up, i can only really pay £250 a month on my debt. Hopefully, i can have a cheap November when back from holiday, and overpay some debts at the end.

    Sorry MM, didn't mean to ruin your reputation :rotfl:

    I know, i'm very lucky, they have been trying to stop me paying back the money for months, but i wouldn't, so this is the only way i would accept their offer lol.

    I'm glad you're feeling better today Hayley :).

    I've got £20 in boots vouchers coming so I'm planning on using those for christmas presents, we'll all be fighting over stuff in boots at this rate! I'm going into town in a bit as my dad is having his car done & has an appointment to speak to the solicitor at the CAB about the two potential cases, hopefully he'll get some good advice. I'm considering raiding my piggybank so I can cash some of my coins in my ISA lol.
    Finally bought a home
    Starting mortgage £289,500 31.01.19 - Current outstanding £181,991.57
    Overpayments since 27.03.19: £59,482.47
    Moving fund so far £4500 - Premium bonds £4,000

    Oooo that sounds good Nikki x

    Right girlies I need your help.

    I have 1 HMV voucher coming from Pigsback. And I nearly have enough for another one. Do you think I will be able to use the 2 seperate vouchers together? For one purchase?

    Also I have enough for a HMV voucher from Lightspeed. Do you think i will be able to use that voucher with the 2 pigsback ones?

    Sorry to be a pain! :D
