            Hi Emily, hope you are feeling a bit better. Hows it looking this month for the PDL? x50p savers club member #16 - £6.000

            Hi Lucky, it's looking good, fingers crossed. Spoke to hubby about it today and I know that we definitely will have enough money from both our wages to cover all our bills and a bit left over to live off. Really hope that we don't have to borrow any more in March but if we do it would be no more than £100 and that would really be as a last resort. I have worked a weekly budget out for us for after the PDL has been fully cleared and any surplus will be transferred on payday to a separate online saving account, so that if we are ever short of money again we have some 'emergency' money. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel!!!!! Thanks so much for your support :A:A

            That sounds positive :j. Lets hope you don't need that last £100.
Onwards and upwards

            So.........on Monday my PDL will be settled and on Thursday my hubby's PDL will be settled.
I have decided I am going to keep going with this diary once the PDL nightmare is behind us!!!!! I think I will post to help me stick to the weekly budget that I have worked out for us and hopefully this will keep me on track and ensure that we never take out another PDL :embarasse:embarasse
