    That loan is nearly sub £14k now Bec's, will you find the £50 this month to get it under?

    I think your goal of getting back to same level of debt before paying for Borneo is a really good one.

    You know what ladies (and gents) - I am so proud of us all! I know I wouldnt have done this without your support - I feel I am working hard to get myself in shape as much for you guys as for myself because of the effort and encouragement you've all given.

    Anyway, sopfest over - as you were.

    I most definitely will! I have my DD for £406 for my usual loan payment coming out on the 4th and I'm hoping to find at least another £150 to send them by the end of the month - cue lots of working!

    Soppiness is always welcome - especially if it includes telling us we are wonderful ;)

    I mentioned a while ago about some shifts in the strip club - I spoke to the woman who owns it just now on the phone and am popping in for a drink and a chat tonight.

    All going well, I should get sunday evening shifts there, which will help with some extra pennies :)

    I missed this the first time round, doing the stripping or just working behind the bar?

  • My friends works in a strip club (not stripping!) and used to get loads of stick for it, jokes about what she was really doing etc etc.

    She's now the deputy manager and loves every minute of it!
