    Thanks for all your help guys.

    Its going to be tough sticking to a budget because in my experience things on papre don't tend to work that well when in practice. There is never a 'flat month' as such.

    You're at a really good point - doing something now before it gets into a really serious situation.

    Good luck to you and your family

  • Your first step is to not go further into debt. Establish a budget for 3 months and don't worry about paying any more to the debt, just STOP going deeper. Then after this look at paying more to the debt. You will get the hang of it.
