Surely a mistake as payday was last week..but Hubby had a similar payment so when we got to work he checked with the Accounts Guy and IT'S A SURPRISE BONUS!!!!! He didn't thnk anyone would notice until he brought the letters round later.
It's enough to pay off the £716 left on my CC!!!!!!!!!!! I can become debt free today (apart from the trailing interest that'll be on my next CC statement) I could cry I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!
Thats FANTASTIC news! :j:j I'm so pleased for you

Right, I have a huge amount to report! You may have noticed that I've been a bit slack on here
well, I've been going to bed early and drained of energy because I'm expecting again
I am only 10 weeks, scan after the BH next week so not "official" yet but I thought I would come clean with you lovely lot to explain my lack of commenting on here 
We are possibly mad given our debt but...the other good news is DH has got a new job with more money so that will cover my loss of salary on Mat leave and we can still pay off the debts about £1k per month. :j:j:j
So I am very sorry about being a bit crap on here! I have kept up with the spreadsheet so that's ready to upload but I feel so sick that I can't stay on the computer for long to chat it makes me feel queasy!
Have a lovely weekend all, lots of :money: fun :T
Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Spagbol - thats lovely news!
