    Just made a payment of £482.55 to my Barclaycard which will take the balance down to £500. :D

    This will be gone come January although ideally I'd love it to be gone this year! This factors to whether I can make enough from matched betting so probably not. :rotfl:

    When that and my loan clears on the 10th then I'll be around the £12,350 mark! :)

    Maybe rather than clearing the Barclaycard I can at least aim to get the debt below £12k! :think:

    All depends on how much this month costs me though! Bloody having to pay out money! :(

    :rolleyes:
