    I have had a sudden urge of inspiration from another post.

    I, well I should say we and a few other posters are going to set ourselves a few other challenges next year. My own personal ones are:

    1) Pay of £12k in 2012
    2) Virtual sealed pot challenge
    3) £2 challenge
    4) As many no spend days as is humanly possible!
    5) Lose 23 lbs
    6) Try and find 2k for a car!
    5) Start ebaying and generally selling as much unwanted crap as possible!

    Yaaaay really happy this morning after what started by unblocking a sink which was full to the rafters with FAT!!!!!! :eek: Ewwwwwwwwwwww I still feel dirty, even after a long shower! :(

    I've just seen you post that you're going to give up your diary and I'd like to ask that you please don't :) I like reading how people are getting on individually and it's hard to see it on a group thread. Plus we can help give you support and encouragement when you're having a trough day. Writing down my debts to a live audience has been a tough thing for me to do, and quite humiliating but the support and advice from others I'll cherish. I've already learnt quite a bit and I only started it yesterday.
    I'm subscribing to your diary, as I'd like to learn how to keep track of spreadsheets.

    Thank you Kerri, those are very kind words. I suppose it won't hurt to keep it, even it is only one post a week!

    I know what you mean though about writing it on a massive thread, you might miss someone's question if they are in need of answers, have a nice day, i'm sure i'll see you on the other board!

    Well my run of 5 no spend days came to an end yesterday as I had to get credit for my phone! :mad:

    Still never mind, only 9 days till payday and I can whack a chunk off the debts and get some xmas presents, aiming to spend no more than £100 so that should be fun!

    All is quiet in loubie land, not looked on the spreadsheet for a few days, getting withdrawal symptoms so best check, even tho nothing has remotely changed since I got paid 2.5 weeks ago!!!

    Have a Debt Busting day people xxx:)

    You think you have a problem... I just looked at my HSBC account (they do the spreadsheet hard work so I don't have to) and I've magically got an additional £2.... where did that come from?
