    I had £1.50 remaining from my cinema budget, which I have just paid off Lloyds. Another trip to the bank at lunchtime needed now to pay in the £1.50!

    If I had a £1 for every hour I spent staring at my spreadsheets, I reckon I would be debt free by now lol!

  • It must be really satisfying seeing that Lloyds Credit Card steadily coming down, what is your target date for it being sub 7K?

    I'm struggling today, feel crappy and nothing is making sense. Maybe A & L have taken up residence in my brain!

    After Oct payday I will be down to £6,580.17 on the Lloyds card, will do my best to find the £80.17 before Nov payday.

    Also my total figure after Oct will be down to £11,873.55, which I am very very excited about, hence waiting another 3 weeks till pay day is like torture.

    Paid in my £1.50 at lunchtime and found 5p on the floor on the way back to the car, that can go in the penny pot for now, even I'm not brave enough to just pay 5p in!
