Thanks! I'm finally a quarter of the way through this! Once the £600 is paid off I'll be able to make some real damage to this as I'll be able to clear more of the loan so I wont have so much eaten in interest!Adam's diary - My Debt Diary - The Challenge | LBM May 2010 with £23,343.35 | £16,141.46 to go...
