    hi amara, no jubilee celebrations for me!

    How are you and baby? not long left now are you all ready?
    If you need any help with part 9 of this challenge let me know

    Thank you, that's very kind :)
    No, I'm not fully ready yet, but not far. LO is due 28th this month. We bought an essentials though and my mum will stay with us for a month and she'll buy a cot. Annoying thing is, all baby stuff seems to be in two colours only: pink and blue. Why?! There're so many beautiful colours, in my opinion it limites children. You can only be a meek princess or cheeky footballer.

    I want all of us to get ourselves together for a final push and pay off as much as we can.

    Let's do it!

    When I had DD my mum found a cot that was green :rotfl: we just had a plain wood one as we wanted gender neutral in case we had more children (luckily for DS he doesn't have to sleep in a pink bed :rotfl: ) I'd never seen a green cot before but it was quite nice.

    Hope you are taking it easy amara.

    I've got money waiting to be paid off the c/c just waiting for DH to transfer it over so I can declare it here. I'll be really close to target then :j

    KEEP GOING CHALLENGERS!!!
  • Hi everyone,

    Can't believe how well everyone is doing. I have not done very well in this challenge given that my mortgage has gone up due to negative so have been finding it tough to make any extra payment. Anyway have managed an another £10. Hopefully I can manage a few more pounds before the end of the challenge.x

    It doesn't matter if you don't meet your target. ANY extra you've paid off due to this challenge is a bonus. Keep going everyone
