    I'm starting over in January, with Dr Dragon having been out of work for part of the year the debt went UP - so starting afresh on January 1st 2010 with the plan to be debt free (excluding the mortgage) by the Olympics in 2012 :D

    I'm thinking about setting up a "Clear your debts by the Olympics" challenge - basically you can sprint or do the marathon!

    I've made my final payment to M&S this week and have savings to cover my student loans' last couple of payments. (no point paying early as in negative interest atm), so I've managed to become debt-free in 2009!!

    Been a crazy day, couldn't quite believe it until I saw that £0 balance on the statement. Yeah!!!
