Shoots off from 0 to 80mph in 2 seconds then straight up a vertical bit, twists, then back down, think the whole ride only lasts 11 seconds or something.
Bet that's a terrifying 11 seconds!Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -
We went to Alton Towers in May on a Saturday and only got on 4 rides all day, am never making that mistake again!
We have free tickets so will go on a weekday next year.LBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

After it taking 20 mins and many attempts to log-in to Lloyds (do they not know that they can't stop me paying them back!) I have managed to send another £100 in the direction of the loan.
This means I am sub 24K :T (Only just!)
I am celebrating this as this is the final time I will go sub anything on this again - I WILL NOT add to this debt for anything ever again!

Well done Bec's, you have come a long way since April 2010, despite heading off to Borneo so you should be proud of yourself.
£100 more to Lloyds is excellent, despite them making it as difficult for you to do as possible!LBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

In fact, I'm just off to check my snowball now, I found paperwork the other day that means this month was the last payment for my sofa not Dec (has been confusing as the agreement is on my ex's name so they won't talk to me about it) so I will see what difference that and the extra £100 I've just paid has made.....
Adam, when you paid Egg would they not let you pay the whole balance at once and made you wait for the final interest charges?Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0
