    Congratulations hun! Doing fab.

    50% is so far off for me I have never thought of it being downhill after that - thanks for the forward thinking!

    Just been naughty and been to Burger King - spent £5 and also most definitely not on my diet! :o

    My defence is that we got the crown we needed for the fancy dress work thing on Thursday for free :D

    The rest of the loan from my brother should come through next month - which is another 3K - then the Lloyds CC will be gone! Onto the Lloyds loan after that - can't wait to be Lloyds free! :D

    Was off sick yesterday, still feel rubbish but couldn't really have anymore time off :(

    Spent ages arguing with our energy monitor last night to get it set up as we are £630 in debit on our electric! :eek: Quite annoyed really as we said before that we didn't think we were paying enough and they said to leave the DD as it was. OH pays all the bills so he is going to up the DD to £80 a month. We are going to use the energy monitor to try and bring down the amount we use but I think it's going to fall to me to try and clear the defecit. Will be PADing that one I think! :)

    Our energy monitor has already showed us that our heated towel rail was costing us 75p a day - that went straight off! :D

    £10 to Lloyds today :)

    Tried to pay a £1 to kick start some payments to the electric but work internet doesn't seem to like that site so will have to do that tonight. Will give them regular meter readings I think as well to make sure the bill is as accurate as possible.
