    I am having an up and down day today. Oh the joys of being in debt.

    I have finally hit my target :jbut I am not feeling as good about it as I should be. I am trying to not think about what I could have done with all that money.

    There will be a time when the banks will not make a penny more out of me. I have really learned my lesson now and I am not having fun anymore.

    Sorry guys just having a little moan. How could I have been so foolish?:o

    Ok, I'll stop now.....and put my happy face back on:D

  • Sorry forgot to say.

    Well done everyone, lets keep going. Paying something is better than nothing.

    It would be lovely to know how much money they haven't made out of us since this challenge started.

    Anyone got a calculator thingy for that. (only joking)

    Can anyone tell I am in a bank bashing mood today.

    No.83 here on a drizzly Friday, but hey it's nearly the weekend! Oh yeah. Paid off another £13.73 today, unfortunately due to paying for holidays that's about all I can afford this month :(. But I'm still on target for the end of the year and this should be a quiet month so I'm hoping to pay a lot more off next payday!

    New total is £2122.95/£2400.
    Bank of Scotland CC: £2209.22/£2400.
