Well P, you are not really gatecrashing a challenge - isn't the whole point of this board to pay off our debts??
As for being female.......are you saying that I am having an identity crisis as well as all my other problemsIt is not an excuse Missy!! You are not even blonde.......:D
Right, first one down to £35k/25k buys the coffees :j
Have now done 5 reclaim letters and about to do the mortgage one. It will be costing me £50 for statements all in, so I hope it is a worthwhile investment!!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes.

Hi Hypno - Well done on your chocolate challenge and getting the re-claim letters out :T :T
Can I hijack thread also and join in the race, I would love to get mine down to £18k by Christmas, not sure if I will manage it as it is quite a lot to aim for, but thinking it will keep my inspiration going....pretty please can I join.....
I raided a load of stuff from my mum's to put on ebay at the weekend and they are totting up nicely now0 -
Hi LIH, nice to see that total down below £100k. You'll get there......
DD was 13 yesterday :eek:
The sun is shining here too, but I am shut away in my cabin working........sort of!
OH has just come home so I may have to relinquish use of the laptop temperarily in order that he can get stuff on ebay.......Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -

Thanks hypno,I couldn't quite believe the total when i saw itwe haven't paid that much off,so don't know how it's reduced to that amount
have spoken to Payplan and they insist it's right,so I'm not arguing
:j we did pay them £3.5k a couple of weeks ago,but that wouldn't have reduced it that much :rolleyes:

I wonder what you were going to say then!Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 208 - Proud To Have Dealt With My Debts DEBT FREE DECEMBER 2008!!!0 -
Hypno - would I be able to join the challenge too? I'm involved in quite a few at the mo, but I think this is a more long term one isn't it.
I'm not sure what to aim for. I'd love sub £30K by the end of the year, but am not sure if this is a little high to aim for.

Right you are warned that the following contains lots of expletives.....
:mad: &%$$$£@*****%$£££"@@@***:mad: &***&^%%$$£"***@@@@@:mad:
Took my eye off the ball for a tinsy winsy time and as a result have not been on top of things (as you know for many reasons) and the upshot is that our debt has increased by £1087 :mad:
So, my DFD according to the snowball has increased by 2 months.....
I have updated my signatures to shame myself into checking everything daily again.
Whats more, and most galling of all, is that Seaxwyn is even closer by default (unfortunate use of word there) to reaching £35k before me.:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:I am shocked, angry, upset, all those usual things. But if a kick up the bum is what I need, then this is certainly it.Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes.

Oh Hugs to you.
How very dispiriting.
I wish I could say something something positive and uplifting such as you say to so many others in such an encouraging way.
.
So kick yourself, get back up and hope that OH earned £1K in overtime going in on his precious holiday?0
