    Another £48 today from me. I am going to try and do a payment a day type of thing during the kid's holidays and pay the £6 per weekday that they would have had for lunches into the debt pot. It'll be another overpayment of £218 over the hols. I'll have a go at it anyway :cool:. So now £4,107.00/£10,000

    That's a good idea.

    Ok,managed another £350 this month, it's because I thought a direct debit hasn't gone out yet but apparently it did so I paid it towards Lloyds.
