Evening All
Ohbummer have just realised I'm going to be late for work oh well I'll just have to rush.
I have been reading through and catching up and thought I'd give you all a progress report from the duck household.
I have done another quick calculation and well it can't be right it would seem I have paid off 9% of my total so far - not quite 90 I grant you but some how it seems tooo much, anyway, am rather pleased with that we all seem to be making excellent progress. I cant see January being as good or Feb or March for that matter but as long as I am enployed and well I'm happy to be plodding on. Not long till christmas.. still have no present, may get a grip sometime soon......

I have added all my payments this month to my signature minus the interest. What an eye opener I knew what the interest was on different things but never done a monthly total. If I was to clear all debt I would be £200 better off monthly with just interest payments.Debt at LBM £19700 :eek:
Arrears £4800

Woo hoo!!! I just worked out how to make overpayments to my Egg loan from my RBS current account through online banking :T. Made a small overpayment tonight to check it works! Loan is due to be paid up on 1/12/2010 but if this works out ok I can make regular overpayments and hopefully clear it by summer. I am delighted!!0
