morning all - thought it was about time I came on and updated.
Things have been going OK. I have nearly finished the christmas shopping! woo hoo and even better this year I haven't put any of it on teh credit card!! Still a couple more to go but will need to wait until I get my expenses back otehrwise I would have to put it on the CC.
I am egtting there with the Mint CC - just over £300 to go and I WILL do it this year! I really want to clear it this year so that I am going into next year with only 2 cards to clear - totally £10K but still only 2 cards!
STILL no internet at home, am really egtting to my wits end with it all, I don't knwo how many mroe times I have to call to get told the smae thing and nothing to happen!!!
Anyway - onwards and upwards! hope everyone is wellNew surname New start!
