There are some fantastic figures being paid off here.

Hi All
I have not posted for a while. Debt repayments slowing down now thanks to christmas, two MOTs, losing weight (so just had to buy new clothes of course!!!) and a new grandchild due this week (I cannot believe the price of travel systems these days!).
I am not on target to reach my 26k off the debts now by the end of the year - although I have still got Novembers and Decembers pay yet to come - but if I manage to make it to 23K off the debts and another
10 lbs off the weight I will be pleased!!

Hi my life :-) ditto about mots and clothes and life in general on the build up to Xmas :-). I'm pleased with any progress it's sure as he'll better than what we would have done without the challenge so well done and enjoy the new grandchild when it arrives hehe. And everything has got more expensive apart from peoples wages which seem less or the same but one can not complain :-) xxI AM A MONEY MAGNET, THEY ARE MAKING MORE MONEY FOR ME AS WE SPEAK:pMIKES MOB, DFW NERD 1071, DFW LHS 132!MIRACLES HAPPEN I'VE SEEN IT WITH MY OWN EYES.
