    Afternoon :hello:

    Sent a cheeky £1.24 towards the Halifax

    Going out to my friends tonight for a catch up been nearly a year there's about 5 of us from high school that meet up about once a year can't wait

    Hubby sold one of the vans for spares and repairs he got £450 for it :j so I'll put that towards his credit card on Tuesday he's still got the other van to scrap so hopefully he gets more than £100 for it means he's only got £1450 left to pay off sounds much better than £2000

    Well it's the last day of September :eek:

    Thought I would do my calculations for my Halifax card

    So in September I cleared £1989.14 from its balance :eek: but it would have been more but had to add £364.98 due to two dodgy phones ........anyway the line is drawn on that and I'm not going to dwell on it

    So my target is to clear the £1983.75 by the end of October :eek::eek::eek: a tall order but I know I can clear it :cool: it'll be tight but it will be soooooooooo worth it xx

    I want it cleared so I can put money aside in November for Xmas

    So it's on :j:j:j
