    Hi Swinstie

    You need to read the Ts & Cs of your loan, some allow it some don't. If yours doesn't put the money into a savings account once you have cleared the other debts, this will enable you to make an early final settlement on the balance once you've saved up enough. Best of luck!

    Thanks Dinah, I thought about that, cos think can reduce my debt in about 18 months, just this blasted loan is dragging it out. Guess there's no problem with opening another account if need be. Will check it out! Good luck with the £40K!

    Aye the wedding thing is starting to scare me again tbh! You're only allowed a wedding comment if you make a money comment at the same time, thems the rules in my thread.

    Weddings scare the heck out of me too, my brain just takes in the pretty dresses and stops thinking after that!

    If you need any help with getting your head around things betting wise I could get OH to explain any bits you're stuck on for you? I'm sure he wouldn't mind! Would make a change from him explaining it to me, as my eyes glaze over and I slip into a coma.

    I'm feeling the need for a new challenge. I'm thinking maybe £1000 profit on MBing by end of 2009 and 'win 5 comps in 2009'... I like this one as I'm already one down after winning that galaxy book!

    I get really, really bored with nothing to do. I absolutely can't just sit and watch tv, have to be drawing or on the computer or something at the same time. This will be the first month we go for £20 a day rather than £10 or even £15 though.

    Better go find some space in my sig....
