Hiya
If it's not too much trouble Jwil, could I up the total I'd like to pay off during the year. I'd like to be abe to pay off at least half of my debt I had at my LBM, and want it to be a challenge. I know I can reach £16k easily because of the insurance payout we've already had this month. So as I want it to be a challenge, can I change my totals to £7635.44/£21000. Thanks, and well done everyone for fantastic January payments. Will see you at beginning of Feb, when our loan payments come out xxLBM Dec 10. Total unsecured debt £41176 :eek: Nov 12 Debt Free Thanks Mum x RIP x

Well I checked money stuff tonight and I should have plenty left over this month to cover this, so I figure it's better to send it over now and remove the possibility to spend it on junk! Sent another £70.70 CC-ward - round numbers are so much nicer right?!
Soooo:
£435/£3435
