Thank you bloodofareptile - this takes you to 10.85% paid and it lifts the overall total to 0.99% paid (so close :rotfl:)

Oh sooooo close!

I already have a plan to pay of the mortgage by December 2012, so if I can achieve this with an extra push and be done for July 2012 I'll having my own Olympic style firework party.

Outstanding mortgage £26,160 as at today; within the next week or so this will be consolidated with savings into a revolving credit loan, so I will see a one off marked reduction, which will fluctuate, maybe even upwards for a short period in the middle of this year. But the plan is to chuck every spare penny I can muster to kill this beast, once and for all.

Good luck to all others taking part in this challenge!!

.............have paid some money off my debt.... but it has taken me over my overdraft limit so can't count it as paid until payday when my overdraft wil be cleared by wages! Roll on January 29th - having a very quiet January and have realised its a lot easier to cut back on spending than I thought!!

Welcome Kiwisaver (#69) and Hawkofeagles (#70)

Clodagh Truble and me-shelly both you amounts have been updated (thank you!)

Please folks - don't increase debt by paying debt! (ie by going over your overdraft limit or getting an overdraft!) - this is supposed to be a fun way of clearing debt NOT getting more stressed over it!

Welcome Kiwisaver (#69)

Thank you Mrs Dragon, I really appreciate what you are doing here and all the hard work you have undertaken to keep tabs on all of us. With you as our Coach (Team Leader) we're all gonna be winners. :T

Now just have to find my PE kit and start limbering up, will probably be jogging on the spot for a bit, but will update my stats as soon as I can.
