    Jump right in babs - your official number is 51 (if you want to add it to your sig line!) and with your total added to the overall and the payments made today this is how the team stands

    Total to pay at start - £887,271.00
    Total paid to date - £5,161.46
    Percentage paid = 0.58%


    I can't wait to see us get the percentage paid for the team over the 1% mark!

    Just starting up selling loads of bits and bobs on ebay and will be throwing all those earnings at debt repayment so hopefully that will get me off to a good start!

Looking forward to getting my salary back to hit my debts with, just not looking forward to not spending all my days with bubs!!

    Good to see you phoenix_dragon (love the name!) and welcome to the Olympic Team, good luck on the credit card clearance! (my debt is CC as well *sigh* and I know what you mean about the interest!)
