  • Wow James

    I have just read your thread from start to finish. You have been doing brilliantly. I myself am fairly new here and taking on board a lot of advice from everyone.

    Keep up the good work, you are an inspiration to us all!!! :j
    Debt as at 31st March 2006 = £4127.31 :eek:

    Original Debt free date May 2009

    New debt free date January 2009 :T

    £2.00 Savings Club joined 12th May 2006 = £6.00
    20p Savings Club joined 12th May 2006 = £0.00
    Will use both £2.00 & 20p's to go towards debt.

    How you doing James? Your diary's way down the list tonight. Not like you to be so quiet!

    Looks like my plan to pay off the A/L cc may not be a goer!!

    May have to see if HSBC will raise my credit limit and BT a bit more. Don't know how I miscalculated but I don't think I'll be able to do the same again next month.

    Ah well...

    Hiya peeps :hello:

    im ok :beer: just havent got round to updating me diary in the last couple of days :doh:

    Main reason being is where ive been a bit frivilous with me money and ive gone overdrawn :doh: :mad: So long as i dont buy anything else for the rest of the month ill be £66 overdrawn, although i have my overtime money in which i can use to pay off my overdraft its £66 less i will be able to throw at my loan :doh:

    Ive still got me refund that im waiting on from the DVD boxset i sent back, so that will be £23 ill have back but ive got to wait for that so not too sure how long it will be :rolleyes:

    Thanks all though for asking if im alright though :beer:

    and dont worry Verbatim your doing great it will all come together for u, even if they wont raise ur credit limit you will only have a little bit left on there to pay off wont u? Hope everything else is fine ur end as well :beer:

    and SS Arsenal were robbed!!!! :mad: :mad: :p :rotfl:
