    Thanks. I did wonder about moving up to silver, but there is no way I'd manage that in a month!! Next time I think I will though....

    £15 tutoring this week and £119 refund from one of my loans as it turns out they took too much for the last payment! Now up to £555.73. Over halfway and I'm happy with that.

  • £36 in expenses refund just returned from my professional body after sitting as an examiner for them - the actual pay for the day still due to arrive. The £36 now added to the total in my signature though!
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!
