Hi!
Weather was gorgeous -sunshine every day. It was so nice to sit by the beach and sip a banana milkshake. We spent quite a bit on our credit cards but not including them in our debt as I hope to pay it off with AQA. We decided not to worry too much about the money but want to pay it off asap.Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

Yeah, sometimes it's nice to just relax and enjoy, as long as you don't over do it. But you're sensible and deserve some fun as well.
Booked an appointment with webuyanycar, just to check how much they'll offer. But my friend finally got back to me and he's got good contacts in Hereforshire, so will probably SORN my car, take it up there (he's got a drive where it can be left safely) and either he get's one of his contacts to fix it for me or try to sell it for spares for bit more money. Fingers crossed. This would mean I'd have to go up there on Saturday, hopefully my other mate's around so I can see her at the same time. Hope things are looking up with the car.DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0 -

Ok, the money from my balance transfer has come into my account where it will stay till mid December, and then I will transfer £4k into my Finnish bank account to pay off from my s.loan. Then I should have around £4k left on my student loan and the nearly £6k on CC. S. loan should be paid off end of next year. I might try to get a 0% transfer next year to get the virgin card down, but I have to carefully think about it cos I don't know if I could pay it off in time cos money will be tight wanting to get loan paid and minimum payments on CC...DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0
