    Thanks everyone, I feel like things are actually starting to go my way and I feel a lot more optimistic than I have done for a while :D. I'm aiming to have paid off nearly £1900 (30%ish) by mid March (well if all goes to plan). However, I have to be really careful as last year I did so well in the first three months and then it went all pete tong!

    I was thinking that too minicooper, I hope everything is OK.

    Regarding Noodle, my report comes out on the 28th, but they are very slow at updating as some things on my report haven't been updated since the beginning of december!

    Bloomin hell, these rabbits are going to bankrupt me! (Er a figure of speech - not literally I hope)

    Vet bill was surprisingly cheap - £34 for both bunnies to be vaccinated, have their nails clipped and for Nibbles to have his teeth burred (he is a dental bun). :D Normally it's £5 each for the nails, £13 for the teeth and about £30 each for the vaccs but they had a 'special offer' on so have saved money that way.

    They also peed in the cardboard carrier so I have just ordered a Catit Cabrio from Amazon for £25 ... :eek:

    And let's not forget that I spent £3 on veggies for them in the supermarket and £6 on some treats from P@H. >_<

    On the bright side their nails won't need doing for a while, their vaccinations are annual and Nibbles won't need his teeth doing for another 6-8 weeks. And obviously we won't need to buy another carrier. I did look at some in P@H for £15 but they were so flimsy, there was no way they would take the weight of my buns and they're not exactly heavy!
  • :T I sold 2 items on flea bay, and one of them has paid! My first flea bay income! Must decide how sales get split in my pots now...
  • Saw this post a few days ago and thought about you guys here with house bunnies...

    Solution: litter train the bunnies :rotfl: I just pick them up - I wouldn't want to clog the hoover with it.

    I'm going to announce the January total now!! Drumroll please....

    We have paid off:

    £107,205.30

    :j:j:j:j:j:j:T:T:T:T:T:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:T:T:T:T:T:T

    Well done everyone, keep the payments up and we will kick the debt butt and save the British economy! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    This is an amazing figure in one month :T

    Last weekend I made a payment of £102.05 to my credit card but a few days later the money wasn't ringfenced in my account and wasn't showing as paid on my credit card, so I paid it again.

    Today, both payments of £102.05 have been deducted from my bank account. As only 1 was added to my total on here, my new figure is

    #11 - £2379.16/£10,224 = 23.27%

    I would like to get over 25% paid off, from ebay sales, in the next couple of days :rotfl:

    SPC9 #125 - £816.85
    SPC10 #125 - £851.81
    SPC 11 #7 - £968.46
    SPC 12 #7 - £2682.90
    SPC 13 #7 - £4829.85
    SPC 17 #7 - £7313.63
