Hypno
My debts are now reletively small (they were mahoosive) but this I hope is the year that I finally get debt free. The amount I am paying off will be approx £5k but as OH is still unemployed and I only earn roughly 5k this will really be a HUGE challenge for us. I have set a date of 10.10.10 that I want to be debt free so here's to a good year!I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

Well done! I make it that we are only 5.81% of the way into the challenge so you are ahead of target already!
Payment of £25 to MBNA today. Thats my final standard payment. Will make an overpayment in the next week, but not sure what it will be yet...
Hope everyone has a lovely xmas.
