  • Happy nearly Christmas... 2009er's

    Just a quick post to see how you'll all doing and to catch up on the thread. Have had proper flu for since Wednesday and today is the first day I've been able to lift my head off the pillow for more than 10minutes.:mad: It's not all bad news as I've lost 7lbs - yipeee! :j Not read all the posts yet, but hope you had a great time MIzmir.

    The total paid looks great especially at this time of year!

    My plans are failing into place and I've got my 0% card in full use now and my DHs is in the christmas post. Have made a couple of little payments, but my head's not here to work out the totals.... it's only pence until pay day, so I'm keep the suspence up and tell you all in a couple of days!:rotfl:

    Can I join? Not much to go now, but it seems I'm hitting hurdles now! Got to pay for 3 new tyres, an MOT and my Car Tax in the next 6 weeks - will be able to pay for these from wages and not more debt, but means I won't be able to throw as much at my debt as I'd planned.

    I want to lose 56 pounds in weight and 805 pounds of debt by 19 May 2009.
