    James - how can you avoid this? Could you keep a little stash of food somewhere, i.e. pot noodles, packet noodles (if you like that kind of thing?) Do you have access to a fridge, microwave etc?
    good idea about the pot noodles!!! :beer: never thought of that think i will buy a stash of these and leave them in me draw :j cheers for that annie :beer:

    Evening peeps :hello: just checked my Egg Loan and me monthly payment has come off :j so out of £303 £270.69 is coming off my debt now :j

    To think at the start of this year (when i had my lightbulb moment) out of the £303 monthly payment only £235 was coming off my loan :(

    So in addition to my overpayments im now getting an additional £35 off my loan every month :j

    i sooooooooooo wanna be debt free :j :j :)
