  • £1 to the cc today please :) Found return direct flights to HK in May for just £560 with Cathay Pacific... so might have to book that sooner than I thought! Am waiting for an ex-work colleague who now works for Virgin to get back to me, as i might be able to get staff travel on that... I'm tempted to just book it now though as the flight times are perfect and then it's done. It'll set my debt-busting back a bit but it won't be going on the CC or adding to it so I guess that is a good thing? :)


    I totally agree with you. I am going to stay with my Dad who lives in Melbourne, for 6 weeks in March. I have managed to save up and pay for my flights. Even though I still have a lot of debt I am working hard to reduce, I am pleased I have managed to pay for this trip without adding a single penny to my debt.

    I know it could be argued if I wasn't going, I could have paid more off my debt. But the way I see it is, my Dad had a heart attack last christmas, and although he has given up smoking, lost weight and generally got himself fitter, he's not going to be here forever.
    Getting rid of my debt is important to me but we have to live a little as well.

    Thanks Frodo :) I do feel a bit guilty but these things are worth it sometimes. Although today we found out MrS's boss is being a complete ***** about it now even though it was his idea for MrS to stay out there in the first place! :mad::mad: Have to wait until they have spoken about it tomorrow now, but it's very annoying.

    Anyway I'm off for 3 days now, yay! Hope you all had a good weekend!
