    happy you know know how long things will take, i did a rough summary of my debt progress since joining here and spotted to my shame that my first year here i only paid off £2-3k, whereas i'm now upto about £12k per year. Eventually it feels that instead of fighting for every repayment they just fall naturally into place and actually sometimes (though rarely) find themselves falling into your hands.
  • I know ive paid 11k in 9 months so thats okay i guess and considering that ive been here nearly 2 years the 1st year must have been a poor reflection of payment but we live and learn lol x

    Each year you will find yourself paying off more than the previous year, HTGDF.....and 5 years max is not such a bad thing......it will have taken me the same sort of amount of time to clear my debt by the time I am done and dusted, and I am pretty pleased with that! But, yes, I too get frustrated at the length of time it takes, and want it done yesterday, but when I look back and see how the numbers are falling, I am more than satisfied with progress, and you will be too!

    Yes indeed Happy, you have! :T :T Well done you! Keep up the good work! (and just imagine the possibilities if you manage to save even half as much as you're paying on debt repayments when all this is over with!) :j :j :j

    I, however, am not proud of myself at all. I have, in all seriousness, just written the sentence "This relational association between perception and situation reflects the dialectical connection between structure and agency." :eek: I don't even know what it means myself! :eek: :rotfl:

    Oh dear! Might have to go and have a lie down now with a flannel over my face :rotfl:

    Woohooo, just noticed that last post was my 1000th post! :j :j :j

    Surely that calls for some kind of celebration???? :rotfl:

    Perhaps a nice cup of tea? :coffee: And cakes all round I say :j (virtual ones of course, can't get distracted from PhD by going and baking now!) :rotfl:
