I just turned 30 in July, it was a scary propsect only because you realise how quickly your life is rushing by.
I will be debt free by my 32nd birthday, which I don't think is too bad really.LBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

I'll hopefully be debt free by my 31st birthday. But I'm secretly holding out for a DFD of end of next near! Although, with the slow rate my numbers are coming down, I'm not sure that's going to be possible!
Still, we can live and hope huh?Adam's diary - My Debt Diary - The Challenge | LBM May 2010 with £23,343.35 | £16,141.46 to go...

No slacking on the diary front Adam, you haven't updated us for a few days!

All is okay thanks - sorry for the lack of updates, but there really is nothing to update on. As I'm paid monthly most of my debt busting stories come at the beginning of the month, and then that's it for me.
I am, however, applying for a 0% credit card to transfer the Egg balance onto. I will be doing that tomorrow through my bank, let's hope I'm accepted
Oh, and I have dreadful toothache today Hope you're feeling better than me. Adam's diary - My Debt Diary - The Challenge | LBM May 2010 with £23,343.35 | £16,141.46 to go...

Today at work, as every day. Tonight I have friends coming over for dinner. Tomorrow there's an air show in Shoreham that I'm going to go an see, provided the weather is okay. Then in the evening I'm off to my friends. Sunday I'm out for a family lunch then to my cousin in the evening as she's just moved to the area so going to say ahoy.

Heeeeeey, long time no speak - what have you done to your other hand? I didn't go to the airshow in the end of account of it being such a rubbish day weather wise.
Well, it's 13:19 and I've taken 4 Nurofen Plus and my teeth are STILL killing me! I'm meant to wait 4 hours between taking them, but in 3 hours the 4 I've had are not working Adam's diary - My Debt Diary - The Challenge | LBM May 2010 with £23,343.35 | £16,141.46 to go...
