Just popped in to thread - need to stay motivated even though I can't make overpayments for the foreseeable future. Great to see so many doing so well. Keep it up guys.
My condolences to LB, your post was so touching. Glad you had support through it, money is just money and I'm sure you will be back on track financially very soon. Glad your mother is in a good care home.
Black taxi, how awful. I hope whoever did it also gets an unpleasant "surprise" one morning! Makes me mad when people are so disrespectful of another persons hard work.2019 MFW No. 74 £13700/£30000 (45.66%)

Hey BT, sorry to hear about this. Hope you're okay, the same thing happened to my OH's car a while ago, except they snapped off the arms for the windscreen wipers, and jumped all over the bonnet and roof of the car, denting it all in. It does make you feel really down. Hope it is sorted with minimum hassle.

Sorry to hear about your car Black Taxi :mad:. Mindless thugs with nothing better to do, hope Karma finds them one day.
Very much doubt i'll reach my target this year. I really need to start splitting my OP so I can put some in ISA savings, basically for a rainy day. Will sort out figures later.
Congrats to all the OP'ing i keep seeing - keep it up :j
