    Hi all can I join in please?

    I started avidly with the 10k in '10 challenge, and I've still yet to post my totals, but I fell a bit by the way side when work went suddenly hectic and major house problems hammered my good work.

    Nice to see you back Sally, it's so easy to give up when a few problems kick in. Hope work and house and all are a bit more settled for 2011. Good luck with the challenge. :D
    Wandered away from the MSE track for a while but am back and on a mission! Debts cleared nearly £18k. Now to start saving ...

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Hey Lou, thanks for the welcome back its great to be out and MSE Proud again. Although I was in hiding on the old thread, it was great to read how everyone was doing, well done!

    Im so tempted to post updates, but I know that once a month is best for me as I go in and out of my OD all month, but it still doesn't stop me being jealous (and happy for, but shhh...) of those that have already posted amounts. We are only 5 days into the year and there have been some great updates! Im with you peetzil, my bottom lip is so far out my OH is using it as a blanket against my enforced lack of heating! :rotfl:

    Right off to check the spreadsheet one last time before bed, thanks for motivating me :T

    :hello:

    Sorry I'm late! Hello Skaps, thanks for starting this thread, please could you add me? I was doing the 10k challenge last year and it was all going so well until we had to replace one of our cars.

    11k would be a good start to the debt. I'm also going to try to pay at least £20 per day in addition to any DD payments I make.
