    Listed 3 more, but not sure if I can find the last 6 things:mad: Hate to lose a challenge though;)

    I got lucky though, dh took kids to the zoo for the day so I have had lovely quiet day:) Downside is that I have to have tea ready for them and three others that went as well, but they are good friends of dh who live in Australia and are over on quick visit, so don't mind really!

    Plans for the money - work night out on Friday and camping for half term. Every penny helps (God, I sound like advert;))

    Got a few watchers, but still just the 4 bids. Spread them out though, so some I put on for 5 days and some 7. Thought it would be less confusing when it comes to wrapping!!

    Excellent work on the Ebay front - that challenge nearly killed me but I do have to get into it again as I have a wedding to go to on June 12 and car insurance to pay so I NEED money.

    You folks put me to shame!
    LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
    (CC/LOAN = [STRIKE]36,378.98[/STRIKE] 35668.47. O/D = [STRIKE]1255.32[/STRIKE] 1212.35/[STRIKE]1999.78[/STRIKE] 1934.52, BUS = [STRIKE]9769.76[/STRIKE] 8714.98)
    Challenge = Debt at 31/01/12 = £25k. 2011 Payments = £1,944.19/£24,403.84

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!
