    Hi all,

    Just want to say thank you to everyone for their advice.

    I've updated my budget spreadsheet and was correct in thinking that after all bills, anything that comes out as a direct debit, food shopping, petrol and pet bills we should have just under £800 to go towards debt payments.

    Very fortunate that the way things have worked out at hubbys work he is going to be nightshift for the next month which means from Thursday to first week in December we should get just under £400 a week from his wages :D This means that we should be out of the overdraft, xmas shopping finished and started paying more towards credit cards etc by end of December.......all without taking out another payday loan - ever ever again!!

    Feeling much better about things now :)
