    Well done. :T
    Am I allowed to ask how you managed it?
    Cheers ladies. Well I suppose Ive been kind of lucky, ive just allocated a set anount everymonth since I started and have had quite a bit leftover. I started with £750 a month for the first year and my payments this year are £910. Payplan allowed me to be quite generous with my budget figures. I suppose I could chuck more at it, but they were happy with what I proposed so I left it at that. Hope it doesnt sound like Im bragging cause Im not. This website had brought so much into my life, we have started a family and slowly but surely we have started to live our life as more and more each year, the debt noose so to speak has loosened more and more.

    Thanks Lenny. It's nice to hear. I tend to forget that most of us are in the same boat when we all get chatting.

    What a sad day with Air France and Beachy Head.

    I know bookie, I've just watched the news. I'm so sad for the little boy, why would anyone do that to a kid? never mind both parents. It makes me feel sick just thinking about it.

    OMFG :eek: thats so horrible and so so sad. That poor kid. Im thinking now, did the kid think they were playing by putting him in the back pack or was he terrified? What were his last moments like??? Really really awful. Who and why could do such a thing, sure your own life but not a kids. Awful, awful business
