  • Hi everyone


    Hope you are all managing to keep on top of this challenge.

    I haven't reported in for a month but am delighted to be able to say that in September I have paid off a total of £4816.81 which includes clearing the balance on a 0% balance transfer just ahead of the end of the deal :j It was a bit tough towards the end of the month but great to be able to achieve this.

    Onwards and upwards towards the challenge that is Christmas :eek:

    Hi folks well tried to pay the bank of mum a large sum of money and she wouldnt take it. Eventually after a lot of arguing she took half of what I offered and said that was us quits. So in a cheaty kind of way I have completed my challenge.
    Thanks to Dragon for starting both of these off as you gave me a kick up the bum that i needed to save something.
    Good luck to everyone else will be waiting at the finish line for you all with something nice and cold xxx
