    Oh balls!

    I totally forgot about the EGG card! :rotfl:

    See how I got into this mess everyone?

    It'll be sub £10k after December's pay day actually :eek:

    OK let's all pack the party hats away.

    Every month is a cause for celebration if there is less debt than the month before.

    So _party_

    I agree with Z, every month that the debt decreases is a pretty good one!

    December is not that far away, anyway!

    Hi LA looks like you're hitting the home straight soon and I just wanted to say you have done so well :T :T When I first joined I couldn't even comprehend being 'only' £10k away from being totally debtfree for the first time in our married life!! Thanks to the support of many posters on DFW yourself included we too are nearly at that magic figure we'll probably hit it at around the same time as your good self so leave a space for me at your party....I may be very,VERY drunk :rotfl:

    LOL - just had a mental vision of us staggering around swigging out of champagne bottles singing (football stylee) "You're not spending any more! You're not spending any more!"
