    Hi all,

    Well I succumbed and booked the 3 day break to Mallorca for myself and OH. Have decided I will work extra hard on AQA to pay for it. I probably should feel guilty but I don't. I already have the flights paid for and the 1st night accommodation. I just need to work on AQA to pay for night 2 & 3 and I also want to get OH a back massage in the hotel and I will get a facial or something. It will be a treat before he starts a full-time job (if there are any out there) or at least he will get the dole which will be extra money off the debts.

    Hopefully he will be getting some tax back soon and we can pay at least £500 off the debts as well. It would be nice to see it getting passed the 10k repayment (ie £16,531 left) mark before the 1 year anniversary of the lightbulb is up.

    How is everyone?

    I'm really looking forward to my hols, only 16 days to go!! And only 11 working days. Finding my job soooo boring atm, no motivation. Thankfully summer is almost here. :)

    Hi Tirlittan,

    How are you? I am good. We are going for 3 nights at the start of July (when OH finishes uni). I'd say you can't wait for your hols! How long are you going for? It is Sicily isn't it? I would love to go there!

    I'm good thanks.Spent most of the weekend at beach playing volleyball. My favourite hobby and almost free. What better way to spend the summer weekends (except maybe with bf ;) ).

    We'll have 7.5 days in Sicily, going on 13th of May. So close I almost believe it's true. Only flights booked atm, supposed to be booking accommodation tomorrow.
