Well done taxi. Briliant stuff.

Thanks Sarah and good luck with the diet.0

Good luck Sarah!
I will be withdrawing from the challenge sadly as we have decided to invest in a new business venture (well its OH, but we have joint finances!). I will still drop in to see progress of everyone, so keep up the good work!
We won't be getting into much more debt, but won't be able to make big payments. Luckily everything is on 0% so it won't hurt us by delaying payments until August.
We have managed to pay off a big chunk with the support ofthis thread, so thanks very much to everyone for that.
Good luck for the rest of the challenge!Paying down the mortgage:
At 1 October 2011: £226,000
Currently: £224,499
Aim: 85% LTV (£212,500)
Paid £1,500
Target remaining: 88.89%0 -

Good luck Mel - but don't withdraw. Just keep making small payments nad keep updating. Business debt is separate from personal anyway so it doesn't affect your personal debt challenge. Good luck with it!0
