    Well at least you can see the light at the end of the tunnel! :D

    I was more overdrawn than I thought I would go this month which ruins the positive debt paying off side but I guess you can't do it all.

    We are even more motivated now as had another valuation on the flat £55k! Boo! Mortgage is for £65k. Got to find a way...
    Wandered away from the MSE track for a while but am back and on a mission! Debts cleared nearly £18k. Now to start saving ...

    Right my latest total now is £650 - way more than I thought I'd be able to save in a month and I haven't even got January's pay yet!
    Everyone is doing so amazing though I feel as though it should be more!
