I'm sure we can manage a second celebration. I mean what is a piece of flapjack between friends?

Look at that, you're nearly at another £500 marker again
I break my payments down into £50s and £100s as it makes the debt seem smaller and more manageable.
I like to round up if i can so it seems i am getting there faster. But i know what you mean about the 50's and 100's. Its a mental trick and it works.
Back in January i could not see how it was possible to even get close to this type of total by now. I owe the HMRC a lot of money but the thought i have managed to cut right back and pay off this much so far is keeping me motivated to get to the end as quickly as i can. I am so desperate NOT to have to do this again (i.e. clear off 1000's in arrears, penalties and interest).
If i am doing it in the future i want to do it in order to stay ahead and not to play catch up.2013 TARGET £30k

Yep, i'm with you there. I often feel like i'm wasting money paying it to debt. If i didn't have debt and a determination to pay it off, i could be enjoying my money. That day will come and as you say i'll be so aware of keeping ahead instead of just keeping my head above water. Boy am i going to enjoy that!! One step at a time

Wow, lemma! Chomping through it now!:heartsmil When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because these weirdos are your true family.0
