Hi all,
Well done PAID and Tirlittan! You both seem very motivated.
I am doing okay on AQA. Not as good as I should be but alright. Friends of ours are going to be moving in with us over the summer so we are getting 1/2 rent from them. That should make a good dent in my other credit card (after Virgin one is paid off). I would love to be down to about £14K at the end of August.
Need to get cracking. Still no sign of a job for OH

Hi all
Thank you for all the congrats messages, it has given me a bit of a boost. The celebration involved getting to the pub late and leaving early because I was shattered - oh well, celebrated yesterday with OH with a BBQ - yum.
well done on the gardening CAFC, I sorted out OH's garden yesterday and now have to head home to my flat (a whopping three minute walk away from OH's
) to do my repotting if everything hasn't keeled over and died in this heat - lol.
Hurrah for tirl for the cash from scratchies and for gettingback online - very important, otherwise how would you natter to us???
