    Do you have to go out for a curry could you not make one or even get a takeaway to save on the drinks ;) Just think £30 for a takeaway and £30 to Lloyds

    Part of me wants to pay the extra to Lloyds Herewego and the other half wants to go out and have a nice evening for a change. I'm hoping it will cost £40 max to be honest. My OH has no money worries and has been very patient with me since I started debt busting, so want to treat him on his birthday.

    Sent another £5.76 to Lloyds today, only £2.99 off £15,500 now!

    I have just paid another £21.47 off Lloyds, taking me down to £15,481.52 - I am finally under £15.5k :j

    My next goal is to get to £15,000 by the end of June.

    My next 3 months wages need to go towards paying for my holiday and saving for spending money, so it will be good to still have a goal as my progress will slow down a bit now and I need to maintain my focus. At least my holiday will of been paid for 100% cash!

    OH has gone to the pub and I didn't want to spend my last £5 on alcohol, so have stayed in to watch Corrie!

    The dog is snoring on the sofa and I won't be far off doing the same as my life is so exciting right now!
