    Morning PADers! :beer:

    I have broken the £100 total for PADing since I started on the 24th August - amazing - all from paying a small amount everyday! :D

    I got accepted for an Egg CC too - gonna BT the Abbey CC for 0% until December 2010 - so that'll really help - turns out I have a pretty good credit score apparently!

    PAD today is £5 to the Virgin and Abbey CC's :j
    Bank loan was £18,202.32 now £441.53
    Egg C/C @ 0% was £1467.75 now £582.99
    Virgin CC @ 0% was £2827.54 now £1974.34
    £3,121.15 Remaining...DEBT FREE >>> Potentially now September 2010!!!
    :D MINT CC & Abbey CC CLOSED:D

    Morning folks

    £2 today please Jo to DH cap one cc. Hopeful congratulations to hubby on getting a new job. My DS1 is currently unemployed and has applied for just about anything going to no avail - getting rather down about it.

    TIFTK - well done and good luck for the imminent arrival.

    Welcome to all the newbies.

    Anyone heard anything from Mac she's been awol for a while now though probably busy sorting out car woes. Welcome back TomTom.

    Catch up later folks after my weigh in.

  • Moaning, Ladles and Jellyspoons!

    I think there's something wrong with me. I couldn't wait to get home and raid my sorely neglected change pot last night so I could PAD it today. It's only my second day and already I'm a trifle OCD about it all. However, I guess it's more of a useful obsession than my teenage eraser collection.

    And so. My PAD today is £7.30.

    Woot &etc.

    There's a good chance that I won't be able to update here daily due to other commitments, but I will be PADing nevertheless and will just update my tally as and when I can.

    This Saturday (early! urg...) I am off to Cornwall for a week of birthday bonkers so probably won't be online a lot. I am going to try and budget well so that I am NOT brassic come payDay (which, annoyingly, is two days from the END of the @*$**%@*% holiday) and still be able to PAD. We'll see how that goes.

    Toodle-oo.
