    Hi James,
    Shame about the slip up but hey what's £20 odd compared to the huge strides you've made? Don't beat yourself up. When you get paid try and sweettalk the bank manager not to charge you for the overdraft. You can show them how well you've done and all the extra pay coming into the account due to the overtime you've put in. I think you've done brilliantly!

    You are certainly not an idiot! You are doing brilliantly and making tremendous progress. I've only just caught up with this thread but it's clear to me you are on the right track!

    I was worried about a similar thing last week and lots of good people told me it's only human to have a bleep every now and then so don't beat yourself up too hard about it. No one is a :A all the time ;)

    That's great James - see it wasn't all that bad after all. What's £25 in the grand scheme of things anyway...

    Hope the £300 is achieved :T
