    Bouncy boobed women?! Come on Jody put us out of our misery! :rotfl:


    And on that note, £25 sent to the loan and £1 to the o/d.

    Tired from working last night but always seems worth it when I can send the payments off.

    Got to do it all again tonight! :)

  • Well done Becs, you've only got £116 of your November Payments left to make and because you are putting us all to shame and pretty much making a payment a day, I'm sure you'll have that done in no time! :T

    19 days left of the month...£6 a day should do it! :)

    Thanks Pennies :)

    My aim is to pay an average of £31 a day so at the moment I'm paid up to 26th Nov. I would like to beat this target this month though if I can as I really want to get my DFD down to Dec 2012.

    You could make penny payments to a pot or something and then pay your Mum each time you had a fiver.

    Keep staring at my spreadsheets as if somehow the figures will miraculously change :o

    Going to try and go sub 23K by the end of the month I think :)

    I always do this too - I've got so many tabs on my spreadsheets looking at different trends and everything which I can adjust to show DFD depending on different repayment amounts - anyway, it's all fun and games.

    Hope you're well :)

    Hi Adam, good thanks, hope you are too :)

    I think at least when I'm staring at my spreadsheets I still feel like I'm doing something to get towards being DF - daft isn't it! :D

    Sorry guys for not enlightening you all sooner! Yes BBW is Big Beautiful Women :rotfl:, I'll take it as a compliment that OH thinks I'm beautiful! There was an article in the sun a few months back about a big pretty girl who just got paid by men watching her eat...now THAT is my kind of job! She didn't go nude or anything, just sat there eating cake in nice underwear...what an awesome way of making money!

    Woohoo @ the payment Becs, I hope tonight goes quickly for you with no heart attacks ;)

    Very happily married on 10th April 2013 :D
