    Yes, it's really nice not having any debt any more. And nice to be able to cope with unexpected things cropping up. I also had to go London to renew my passport which wasn't cheap. I knew it was going to expire early next year but wasn't expecting it to expire before I needed to go to my sister wedding. All sorted now though.
