    Hi BH & Beanie...

    There will be another one, but it won't start as soon after the last as this one did. I will prob start it 1st September, giving a 2.5 week break. Beanie it's actually been much, much easier this time round when everyone has completed there own sums iyswim. It means updating is about 15min as opposed to anything up to 45min before. However I do want a bit of a break this time, we went basically straight from the last into this one and it was a bit much, even for me ;) That would take us to the 29th November leaving the month of December clear to restart in January if you want a what would be part five :eek:

    But I will do a part four, if I can have a little break ;)

    Payday today and I've tried not to spend it all on holiday stuff :A

    Managed to pay £51.63 leaving £802.20

    I'm going away on the 30th and everything is paid for in cash now :j so I shouldn't have any nasty surprises. Hopefully I'll actually be able to put away more next month as I won't have my usual expenses to cover like petrol and electricity.

    I'm starting to feel like I might actually make my target by the 100 days which I put down as a bit of a longshot :T

    £1 leaving £534.76 :)

    Don't think they'll be much more until payday as only have £30 to last me until then! Although I have just transferred £25 from paypal that I will add to credit card when that hits account...and doing carboot tmw, maybe that'll make my millions! ;)

    Paid the remaining £550 this week, so I am done!! :j:j:j

    I was able to do this because of a tax rebate so can't really take all the glory, but at least I didn't spend it (all) on fripperies :D:D:D

    Sounds good PAP. The school holidays are always expensive so a few weeks off debt overpayment will be nice.
