Hi Everyone and a Merry Christmas to you all,
I got back on christmas eve from three months volunteering in the gambia, west africa. great way to avoid all the build up to the festive season and i feel like a new person.
now its back to the serious business of being a DFW! i've got my first court case for reclaiming my bank charges on 24th january - for around £3k and the second case is progressing nicely.
so all i have to do now is find a job and a cheap room in a shared house in sheffield and i'll be all set!
May 2007 bring us all closer to our Debt Free goals!
best wishes everyone

Hi there moongarden.
I loved The Gambia as well (although was only there a week!!).
A beautiful & happy population of people not bogged down by the rat race. In some ways we are lucky but in others I think *they* are the lucky ones.
Anyway welcome back and good luck in 2007 with your DFW progress.Bank Balance: In the black for the moment.
