    Really looking forward to the next payday which will be my first full one from my new job.
    I have made a small payment over my usual set amounts this month of £23.
    I really need to get some spreadsheets going so i can keep track of what I am paying cuz i am doing a rubbish job of it at the moment, hence why i am not popping on here to update :(
    I'm not very good with spreadsheets though, who else uses them? Any advice?

    I had hoped to be debt free with the 2012 challenge but I made it with this challenge. So thank you to everyone for your help and support and good luck to you all.

    I don't think we did, but let's say yes! My target is £3,500 by the end of the year :j

    Fab, I've updated the spreadsheet with a different number for you :)

    Please don't duff me up but I made a mistake while typing my monthly figure.

    It should have read £4077/6500 - 62.7%

    Oh flip:mad:

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Right, menaces money by tomorrow or you'll be for it ;)

    Hi Everyone,

    Sorry I've not been around for ages - I've been reading most days, but I've not felt like posting.

    Sadly my lovely mum passed away on Fathers Day after a brave fight with cancer. :cry::cry: Some of you might remember me posting last October when she was diagnosed. We really thought the chemo was working, but she never really got any quality of life back after her operation. We all feel so cheated - she was only 69 and hadn't even retired from her business. My poor dad is lost without her and so I've spent every other weekend travelling down to spend some time with him and to help sort out all the paperwork. It has really made me yearn to be nearer my family - in my younger years I couldn't wait to get away :o


    Moneysaving has taken a bit of a back seat, but I haven't been anywhere to spend anything either. So I can officially report that I am debt free.

    Apologies everyone someone closed down the laptop without saving AGAIN and I think the spreadsheet might be a bit out of date :eek: Let me know if I need to change anything!
