    well i think the dribble is well and truly done and the river has run dry ,
    with starting more hours i wont have the time goodbye old friend i gave it a try.
    i'll pop in now and again to see if your still going but my success and that of other dribblers has led to your demise.
    the banter and help has dissappeared this thread needs new life to burn in the fire to spark it back up will you take up the challenge
    or let it fade in the silence.............
    the six foot merkin wearing clay model smolders awaiting new worshippers to take on the challenge relight this fire and keep it going .
    smirkenville is a ghost town but hey new job £670 a month extra so this year i will have completed the challenge irony eh!
    th and lesson learned hope it goes well

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Hi Elly I agree hun, it's not the same. Well done on your new job the extra money will be great for you. Thank you for all of your help and good luck with everything.

    I am bowing out of the challange and the other one in my signature as we are on a DMP and will be debt free in 22 months now after 8 years of paying it back. We will have paid over £50k back and can't wait to have holidays etc... paid in cash of course. I'm not putting any pressure on myself to pay stuff off early or make extra as income is dependant on sales.

    Well fleabay shop doing well and bringing in enough to pay the bills so all good.

    I look forward to being on the savings board in Mar 2013!!!

    Take care elly & lesson learned, maybe see you on another thread xxxxxxxxx:wave:
    8 years of being on a DMP finished 3/3/14
