Sorry to hear you won't be around PAP. Thanks for all you have done for this challenge. I really hope someone else wants to run it as it has been really helpful.
I found a tool that might help you work out the date in future.

you can put in a date then add or subtract from it. Hope it is useful

Thanks for all the hard work pap, you've been amazing. I hope whatever it is you have going on is all sorted for you soon.
I really hope the challenge runs again soon, i haven't got the time i'm afraid but could always volunteer to help. Isn't there a easier way for us to do it? Maybe just total our amounts we've paid at the end of the challenge, how much we've paid towards our debt, each of us keep a tally then someone totals the figures at the end? Just a suggestion as would be a shame to see the challenges go.
Well done everyone, you've all done fantastically x0 -
Yes I would really like to see the challange continue in some shape or form.
I have found it to be so helpful.

Right, going to volunteer myself to do the next challenge if no-one else really wants or feels able to do it. I am not a regular DFW poster, which is what put me off before, but it seems daft not to offer. I have time to do it and i am online pretty much every day as i am a SAHM. I havae got so much motivation from it i feel like i need it to run again to keep me going, so i'm sure others feel like that.
If anyone would rather i didn't then please say i am out of turn.
When would we want to start again? 1st of September -10th of December sound ok? Or would people prefer a week or two later to end nearer Christmas?0 -
That would be fantastic cha97 if you felt able to.
