    Payday and Debt reduction day!!!

    Not able to reduce too much this month as we have holiday, both car insurances and MOT for one of the cars in June. However, the important thing is that the debt and the weight are both going in the right direction - down!

    Well done everyone and special thoughts to Taxi
