    Well done Beccie! Where on earth do you find the money, especially as you have only been back a couple of days?

    That's all the money from my last two months pay that I was trying not to spend while I was away! It will slow down from now.

    Got some shifts lined up for the rest of the week though so hopefully I'll be able to get back into the swing of things and keep going on the slow and steady chipping away :)

    hi all. DH has paid off his O/D which brings our percentage up to 34.1%

    although it's looking okay we really need to get our backsides in gear to get it all paid off by the end of the year. we won't do it at this rate.

    well done beccie for not spending your pay while you were away. it must have been quite tempting

    It was hard but I'm glad I didn't as I want to bust this debt more than ever now so I can go travelling again!

    Well done on the percentages Starnac, it's looking really good :)

    Another percentage barrier broken - 29%

    I definitely like looking at how much paid back in percentages :)
