Aw me thats a fantastic amount you have paid off so far. I have SO much i want to do, just need to get finger out and do it! Lent a family member £1600(am i wise...i have £13,000 of debt, i am NOT a bank!!!!! But should get it back*not holding out much hope though haha* by end of March...so that will be a nice lump sum if i do get it back then and all at once. Until then i will carry on being skint as anything, making sure debts are all getting paid...as if they are then im at least getting closer to debt free! So much money wasted on debt, never again!!Work in progress...Update coming July 2012.
