    Hey DFW family its been a long 5 month update - apologies but have been lurking and celebrating all of your achievements- well done. Am updating my signature and its £4010/9000 not a wonderful as I would have hope with only two more payments left but its a chunk out the debt I may not have made if I did not have this challenge and the competitive against myself element did not come to play. Really want my 35th year to be the one when I am no longer in debt (well apart from my mortgage)

    It is time to grow up and smell the coffee I am in control of my DF journey. Pep talk over lets all aim for a final big push whoop whoop
