    Another £560 saved. Now that her son has got a job, make him pay for his own car insurance, and get some dig money off him, too.
    Debt at worst: £33000
    Debt now: £0, (Ok, a £650 overdraft)
    £3000 Credit card (aiming to get this down with 0% card)

    She must have her work cut out though taking care of all the animals, I didn't see any help apart from her son and now that he has his job etc... It'd be quite good if they did follow up programmes perhaps six months/year on, kind of like Gillian MacKeith and YAWYE, just to see how they are getting along and whether they have stuck with it. Having said that though, if they did do and someone had fallen off the wagon, Martin would probably have a total fit!!!

    I recall an AH programme where he was trying to help out some young guy and in the end he just more or less stuck two fingers up at the end of it all and carried on like he always had. I'd have been pretty p;ssed off about that.
