And the new budget looks great!!!!!
Are you going to give Ste all the money at once? (oh, scary!)Empty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0 -
Hi IA, just been catching up with your diary. The pics of your girls are lovely, I love your debt board and CONGRATULATIONS on DottyP's.
Glad you had a good night out at the gig - it's important to have a life even when paying off your debts.
Good luck with Barclaycard!
You have a very inspiring diary.
