    Hi everyone :wave:

    Just wondering if I can come along too please? I did actually attempt PAD about a year or so ago and I was struggling to make a payment every day so I only lasted 1 month :o

    I have now discovered that I don't have to make a payment every single day so that will make it easier for me. I will be PADing the bus fares that I don't use each day (some days I walk, some days I get lifts). I usually put that money back into the bus fare pot but eventually I spend the excess on nonsense. My goal is to get rid of my loan early. I have had it for 4 years and I have another 2 years left to pay it but I would love to be debt free sooner.

    One other thing, I can't start until 3rd May as that is when my next bus fare allowance begins (I have a provision for bus fares in my budget). We are off Friday and Monday (:j:j:j:j) and back on Tuesday 3rd :(

    So if it is okay, I will start PADing probably as of Wednesday 4th as that is a day I get a lift.

    Girlatplay - don't panic about padding every day, I certainly don't manage it that often.

    Further PAD today, £2 to the gold jar and 75p to the change jar.

    Total £2.75

    I thought the same Silaqui, but one I'd used it a bit it was fine. Now I love it and it's odd on my ancient computer with the old verion. Good luck with the DJ & the car - what type of car are you going to have?
    .

    Oh good, glad to hear it's not just me being old fashioned! I must say I have minimised the 'Ribbon' across the top though, it took up too much screen space for me!

    DJ all booked :D and we are looking at a pale blue jaguar if it is available for our date.

    Another £1 for me please to the money tin, just clearing out my purse before tomorrow!
