Well done on the new work, Scuba, hope it goes well for you.
As I'm getting paid tomorrow, I've emptied my wallet this evening...£6.75. So, my total's now at £22.29
I know it's still a small amt, but I feel like it's starting to add up!! :T Hoping that I'll manage to put enough by for Christmas over nxt three month's pay so, if that works out OK, then my Sealed Pot Money and my Virtual Sealed Pot money will go to a rainy day fund. I've never managed to do this before, so would be delighted to have something put by for emergencies by the end of the year, even if it's only a small amount. Fingers crossed I can keep it up. Feeling v determinedProud to (finally!) be dealing with my debts!! DFW Nerd # 1333
Debt at its worst: circa £16,000 (Sept 2006); Current debt: £1,720HSBC OD: £1,250; A&L OD: £470; A&L CC: £0!!!; Halifax loan: £0!!!
Debt Free Date: 1 Sept 2011 :j

You lucky girl scuba, it's so beautiful all around the Pennines. My roots are in the New Forest, though there it's a mixture of heathland and forest so you can be in the density of woodland for a while and swiftly onto the heaths within a shortish time - or longer is better! If it's natural then I love it!!! All the best with your proof for the library, for life in general too these days. Shame about the tips, but so long as the job's good that's the most important thing. All the best for the days.
Well done Observer and loonylamb!BTW loonylamb, d'you mean your DP is also on here with us or 'with you' by means of keen?
£22.29 isn't a small amount at all, PennyCounter, not in the time that you've been saving for so be delighted with what you have and feel excited about the possibilities if you can keep hard at it!!! Go for it!
