Challenge 10 - Daily Chat Tuesday 10th August

Morning all :wave:

Challenge 10? !!!!!!? Is that what you're thinking.

I challenge you all to do something positive involvling '10' towards debtbusting or gutbusting today. It could be:

10minutes to write a 'debt be gone' to do list
10pence paid off a credit card
10minutes exercise
10items listed on ebay

you get the idea?

Today I have done 10minutes extra in the gym and oaid an extra £10 off thr HBoS overdraft:A:money::rotfl:

    Sorry Bookie - just read about your ex MIL too. A tough week.

    As for the '10' challenge - try a 10minute walk to clear your head a bit x

  • Not got 10 minutes to spare today- I need some kind of exercise disc.
    BUT I will try to recycle my old mobile phone for cash.
