    WooHoo we're back online!!!

    I have made £2 PADs over the Enforced MSEless time.

    Now, apart from being able to remove my thanks, what is so different that they had to take my forums away for two days?!?!

    £10 to HSBC and £2.44 to Virgin today :) Had a really good day at "Go Ape" with my brothers, swinging rope course through the trees! Trying to work out how to get cheapest european breakdown, unfortunately for my car, looks like £75 :( Thats what you get for having an old car, doubt it will even breakdown in the week we are away but don't think I can risk that :( Oh well....I'll have to find other ways to make some money!

    Hi Everyone

    My PAD is 5.00 to MBNA for today & yesterday.

    Well done Piggin to be on target for your 0%.

    I've had a good weekend moneywise and stuck to my budget. School holidays now and my daughter is home from college so will treat her a bit but not go too silly. No credit cards anymore!!

    Have a good evening.

    DD xx :D

    Hello everyone!!

    So good to be back!

    How was everyones weekend on facebook? Did you all manage to figure it out ok?

    To be honest i didnt miss MSE as much as i thought i would, but i guess that mainly due to the fact we have had family here all weekend and i have barely been on the internet anyway :rotfl:

    Terri - sorry only just realised today that you PM'ed me last week!

    Payments over the weekend were 15.76

    Now, apart from being able to remove my thanks, what is so different that they had to take my forums away for two days?!?!

    One thing i've noticed is that you can't find out what " board " somebody is looking at :rolleyes: ..... Am not sure if that's a good thing or not :rolleyes: ...

    Has anybody tried the " Remove your thanks " button yet ? :confused: ....

    I wonder if the " Thanks " button just pops back up again then ? ....

    Who's going to try it ? :rotfl:

    Ok I've been lurking around the forums for a very long time, but I have to say you guys have inspired me.

    I've used the calculator, I've cut down on my expenses within reason and have now got a job that pays more money (yay!) so am trying to shift the debt off.

    When I totalled it up on Friday I owed a latte short of £6000, between two credit cards and my overdraft. Not a massive amount, but given I left uni three years ago and haven't started paying off my student loan, it's a bit of a problem. I have a couple of friends and family members who are at crunch point and it's woken me up sooo...

    I counted up the contents of my coin jar and made a payment to my credit card. I reduced down my buffer zone savings (if it earns 8p a month versus the interest on my credit cards then why bother).

    I've also been decluttering my flat for the first time since i moved in :eek: and miraculously found two building society passbooks that I had completely forgotten about, and hadn't been touched since 2007, so went and closed out the accounts and made another payment to the credit cards.

    Thanks to you guys I've paid off 11.5% of my debt since Friday, and am trying as many bits and pieces as possible to get the cards sorted.
