    Morning everyone and happy payday for me and anyone else who's getting it today! :j

    A hefty payment from me has been made. :T I'm not going to make my target unless miracles happen, but it would be fab to get past £10k!

    As usual, I will count any payments made up to midnight tonight as September, and any later than that will go into October.

    I will do my best to get the total up tomorrow, but can't guarantee what time as I've got lots to do this weekend.

    Ooh, come on everyone, we are about £2.5k short of the £500k mark - let's hope we have a flurry of last minute payments!

    Can we do it???

  • Paid £170 off today - If I can find another £163.88 this month it would put me at 75% of my total debt paid off which would be nice but seems unlikely! :D
