    I was just settling down to read the boards when the phone ring - Alan from Hillary's blinds is on his way! Eek!

    Morning all...just take a look at that sig...
    My £92 DD payment came out this morning and I've managed to make an overpayment of £715!!!!!...grand total £802 ...to barclays this month...I'm really pleased with that...so all the figures are looking better...
    The cc is in the £3000s now...the total debt owing now in the 40000 and total towards £7000 by christmas at plus £3000 so am really happy about that....
    I've not been to the bank yet as I'm waiting for DD to get up as she owes me £205 ...(£150 board and £55 she borrowed) and this is part of the total..
    Hope you all have a good day!!!!

    Wow - huge overpayment - and good to see that total creeping close to 40k.

    The Hillarys blind man was very nice, measured up, showed me some samples and gave me a quote. He can't have been here more than 20 minutes. He also said "there's no pressure, no problem if you decide not to go ahead."
