    Thanks guys - we are getting there! Looking back on the past 12 months we have made some serious progress, and really feel as though we are making headway. It is exactly a year ago that I worked out the "true" extent of the debt and posted it on here. At the time it was terrifying, and I really did think that I was unrealistic in my attempts to become debt free and move house etc, but thanks to you guys and the support you all give, I have managed to pay off a big chunk, AND get the kids skiing, AND retain some of my sanity :D

    (ok, well maybe not the sanity bit, but the rest of it is true!)

    So thank you everyone and here's to the next 12 months of debtbusting :beer:

    You should feel very proud. You've achieved an amazing amount this year - and inspired a lot of people. I wish I knew what your secret was!

    well done Hypno for the progress you have made this year, i bet its a great feeling to have got sub 40k. Its not just the debt reduction though, you have kept up with everything else and not let debt busting take over your whole life to do it. I cant wait to see what you get done in 2009!
