Well the 2 tyres turned into 3 :eek: so more expense.
The interview went ok and today i have heard im being called back for a 2nd interview and im the only person being called back
not counting my chickens yet as they havent confirmed salary and benefits only asked your expectations so I will wait until Thursday and see what they say before I :beer:
Onto money well a few more payments sent and we are now at £17690 I also have £60 from quidco on its way took a bit of a fight to get it but got it in the end its a lot of money not to chase.
So we are not where i wanted to be but its still going down and thats the most important thing Rome wasnt built in a day.MARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

I have been offered the job woohoo still waiting to hear about salary as its through an agency but i can afford to take a pay cut as i can now walk to work, I do have a back up with a different interview on Wednesday morning if the money im offered is silly.
I will be on a temp contract for 3 months so will still get paid weekly so no worrying about the change to monthly pay just yet and i can plan for it now.
Also £70 to Lloyds from quidcoMARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

Thanks LT im starting next wednesday not sure im looking forward to it always a bit daunting

Well been MIA never seem to have much to say these days however its payday and the first round of payments have been made and im pleased to say we have broken into the £16k's my wages are still being paid weekly so im hoping to see £15k before the end of June.
Seem to be getting my head round the split with DH never easy but hes clearly made up his mind and ive decided to grab the chance and learn some new skills who knows what the future holds but im hoping not another 20 years of accounts.
Must try harder to keep updating shame this months overpayment is small but car insurance and a few over indulgences in the last few weeks have swallowed some cash

Well done on breaking into the 16s! :T
And glad to hear that you're taking something positive out of the split with learning some new stuff. It's not easy so good for you :ADebt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -
Looking forward to the £15's now which i hope will be in the next 2 weeks.
I started my new job today everyone seems nice but like anywhere there are internal politics, but on the positive side im walking to work and i have time to come home for a 30 minute lunch so not only am i saving fuel but burning calories everyones a winner.
I have also signed up for an online course and so far so good flying through it but its also keeping me busy.
£15 to Lloyds hope to send some more tomorrow as i need this card gone as i think the 0% deal is up soon :eek:MARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

Hi HWG, I have lurked on your threads on and off for over a year now and I have to say you are an inspiration. Just goes to show no matter how big the debt hole, if you are truly determined you can dig your way out.
Keep your chin up and the future will be bright.0 -
Hi Sarahlasvegas and Million Percent sometimes it feels like a real slog and its not all been plain sailing spending sprees happen but you just dust yourself off and start again, really feel like we are getting there now cant wait to get under 10k.
Todays news last wage from old job was paid along with holiday pay so £500 to Lloyds which now means thats under £2k.
£15k im coming to get you :rotfl:
My payday has changed and is now going to be Fridays so next friday should have some more for Lloyds will try to get into the £15'sMARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035
