    So which debt are you focusing on now to get rid of next? I think I might be tempted to aim for the NPower gas one, just so it's another one ticked off the list? What does the snowball say to do?

    OK, council tax is an ongoing one I am paying off at £100 a week (an arrangement I have sorted and suggested myself to them to get rid of it quickly)

    I intend to pay at least £25 off the LLoyds CC each week as well, to start bringing that balance down but anything over and above will be going onto the NPower one.

    I have a few weeks coming up after the Bank Holiday where I will be plugging some serious hours (50+) so will be making some good cash there to kill off the final NPower one :)

    Yes, was a good day although part of the payment was a hotel room at £145 a night :(

    Still, (hopefully) she'll only have one wedding so I don't resent it :)
