Have always wanted to go to Portugal
Will you hit that 50% mark tomorrow then? xLBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

Hope to hit 51% but will need DH wages for that which get paid next Tuesday but yes I can update my spreadsheet and signature. It feels like its been a long time coming.
I have been to Portugal before and loved it we are going to a different place but just need the break and thought I would treat us.
I have big plans for me and ebay when I come back I hoping to make lots of extra money through June, I would need to make about £600 to get me to 52% so that could be a good challenge.MARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

Well a very strange day for me, I have had some problems at work which I may have mentioned before and after being spoken to badly last night by a collegue i decided life is too short for this anymore. I handed my notice in today :eek: i think im a little shocked by my actions but im sure i will find something else and I do have plans which I am working on. My boss was out the office today but knows and said we will talk tomorrow hey ho ive done it now and strangley it feels quite good.
The other side of this means I havent paid as much of the debt as I had planned plus the break has taken some of the money so the figure for May payday are :
Debt £24950 May 2011 - 50% paid off :j:j
I do plan to come back all refreshed and ready to ebay the contents of the house away in a bid to get this debt cleared. On the plus side we can manage on DH wage if we have to it will just take longer to clear the debt, all I know is the next 50% will be paid off quicker than the first 50%(17 months)MARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

good for you and life is too short..
Your dead right taxi, even though I have had a very restless night i do worry a lot. Life is about choices and Im fortunate enough to be able to make the choice. I have a meeting with my boss this morning and I plan on telling him they may enjoy treating the staff like carp but im not prepared to put up with it anymore. It is a shame as I do enjoy what I do but I feel I/all staff deserve to be treated better dont think its too much to ask.
You are doing fantastic with the weight loss putting us all to shame again, hope you enjoy your weekend looks like wellies and suncream are in order.
