Thank god it is!
What is it with OH's who come home drunk at 1:30, come into the bedroom, switch the light on for no reason, leave it on then go and start crashing around in the kitchen so you're really awake by the time you've got up to yell at them?

That's actually a very sensible move to stay away!
Of course, I never come home drunk and loud at silly times of the morning....;)Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -
Has it really been two weeks since I posted. These once-a-month payments make this a quiet diary.
Hoping to make at least £800 in repayments this month. Nothing to pay for in June, except for birthday present for my father. Other than that, money if free for debt busting. Going to try have a skint month and see how much I am left with by the end of it, hopefully I will be able to make more than a £416.13 payment:)Adam's diary - My Debt Diary - The Challenge | LBM May 2010 with £23,343.35 | £16,141.46 to go...

I did one of those 'spend as little as possible' months in March, and it was great.
Managed to overpay my overpayments by £600. It wasn't too hard knowing it was for a month either, and was glad to see the % going up. Definitely try it!Total Debt Sept 2010 - £24,132.38 / Current - £0.00/ 100% paid
