    :D sounds like you are all having fun today :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    finally caught up, blimey, took sooooo long last night that by the time Id finished was far too tired to come up with a reponse!

    Ive just been sitting doing the monthly spend check and seems we've went mega over oops :( Worst is the petrol, typical when you set a budget that the prices go sky high, spent an extra £80 s**t. Food not doing much better. Just as well we've got extra dough coming in. Thank goodness for an emergency pot and big ebay selling.

    Got another default notice yesterday, this ones from BofS, guess the account does exist afterall, darn it :rotfl:Apart from that its all gone very quiet. We havent been contacted by any DCA's yet, but theres still time.

    Nataz - Petrol :eek:Ours is too bad, dh won't listen to cheap driving tips either! Our emergency fund went straight away on mot and service, so you're doing well to have one!
    Dh got £60 from the car boot and we sold some gold yesterday, that'll cover two tyres. Car needs taxing too, that's a big chunk cos its a stupid big car which needs to go and only got half of it, so the food budgets shot to pieces before april starts!

    Right my roll call bit!

    Dont mention tax, it needs doing in may, which would be fine, but I only started putting money away in Jan so gonna be a few months short. Thats the prob when you start putting a bit away each month, you always fall short.
    Well done on the car boot.. luv the idea of you pawning gold :)

    It is probably the worst thought out, non-paying debt plan and if we are feeling suicidal and beardless its a perfectly viable idea! :D
