    House cleaned and DS packed ready to go in a few hours. I gave DH some money tonight that i had been saving for our trip and he gave it back and said pay it off the cc, I have only just picked my chin up off the floor.......
    We have agreed to take it with us and any we dont spend will go to the cc when we get back.
    Have a great week all and i will catch up when i get back.

    £10 payment to Lloyds. Still no sign of refund cheque although they have written to say they are going to post it to me, these banks clearly have too much money and I cant wait to stop funding them.
    I have £305 to find to get under the £30K
    £270 refund of charges
    £ 50 coins
    £100 from savings this was just in case money I out by this month but I think we will make it without it.

    So looks like if the cheque arrives this week will be into the £29's next week, :T Its nice to see the debt coming down although it is slowly but we are also now starting to have a little bit if a life and I forgot to do that last year :o

    We are back and had a fantastic few days away feels like a lot longer which must be good.
    I have to admit we spent all the savings I took but it did include some food shopping on the way home. Im feeling quietly confident that I will make some overpayments this week and next week just before payday. :j
    Still no sign of the refund cheque :mad: give me back my money now you have said I can have it.

    I will update more tomorrow when Im back upto speed

    Just logged on to online banking to see a friend who owed me some money in February has just paid it back, it was a lovely surprise as i had forgotten about it. I knew i would get it but just didnt know when so a surprise overpayment of £60 :j.
    Now i need to see if i can find £240 without using the refund cheque, I am going to go to the bank tomorrow or saturday and pay in all my change this should bring it under 200 plus I won £40 on a scratchcard yesterday not sure i can scrape together £150 but I have a week to try.
    Other good news i have managed to use £200 less of the OD this month so I could use that to get under £30k but im liking the safety net.
