    success stories are always good to hear. not only for the person who writes them but also the people who are struggling and worry that they can't see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you for sharing

    Ooooh well done! :T Great news!

    Mine is slowly coming down. Now at -£2500 (from £2900). Today is pay day and I've just transferred £500 in to cover 2 cheques that'll be coming out soon so my balance currently says -£705! If only I was that close to being in the black :o
