    Thanks for starting this thread The Dragon :T.

    I estimate my debt is in the region of £5000 :o. I can't quite bring myself to sit down and tally-up everything to get an exact total ~ far too scary! I made a payment of £20 yesterday and there's a long way to go yet :cool:. I've no real interest in the Olympics, but I planned to be debt free by August 2011 and that isn't gonna happen at this rate :cool:, so i'll be debt-free for July 2012 instead :D.

    Good luck all x

    I've not got a lot of interest in the Olympics myself either - it just seemed a good point of reference :rotfl:, anyhow you are number 147 and I will put you down as wanting to shift 5k
