    I have made a few payments so my current total paid is £2307.48/£5220 :D I think it is 44.2%, I am getting close to the middle!! I wish I could keep this pace but I know as soon as June hits my working hours are also reduced so I am chipping in as much as I can now. I have cleared one credit card and I should be clearing another one at the end of May, so I should be left the loan and the overdraft to deal with. :D Once I finish clearing my debt I am going to start saving for a deposit :D

  • No. 93 here. Paid off another £132.44 taking my new paid balance to £1583.31
  • Another £150 for no 10 please

    It's slowed down now the overtime has finished, but will continue in the right direction this time, as this time last year I fell right off the wagon - I'm keeping a close eye on myself:rotfl:
