    January was a slow month payment wise for us with the post christmas expences.

    Think that goes for many BH - December and January are among the most difficult months. Hope things pick up for you. Feb is a good month as it is short!! :D

    Paid off a total of £203.80 last month. Have started our PAD, just transferring it to a spare savings account for now, will pay it on the 28th. Intereste etc has meant we didn't end the month sub 5K, was £50.65 over, but still this month we definately should do it.
