    That's brilliant - :j:j can't wait til I get there!!!
  • Thanks everyone!

    Timetofacethemusic - that's a good idea breaking it into 10% chunks. Have you seen Miss_Uni_Debt's 1% thread? I've been looking on that for more inspiration!

    It's all downhill from here! 50% was such an important milestone for me. Things really have been easier since.
