    Evening

    My niece has given me some money she owes me so I have made another payment.

    #11 - £9636.76 / £10,224 = 94.26%

    More payments to be made on Friday but I am not yet declaring debt freeness until it actually happens.

    I still want to stay to be a cheer leader after Friday though.

    Yay my referral bonus is being paid in tomorrow, which means I have about £1500 to smash debts with hurrah! I think I've been taxed like a m0f0 though as the bonus was £2k and I've only got an extra £1k coming into my bank account...booo :(
    Have ordered myself a Kenw00d hand whisk for £46 to celebrate and the rest will go towards VC. Getting excited about almost clearing that one :D

    I know :j:j

    However, I have decided to repay some of my Mum's debts starting next month, so If its OK, I will start again with another figure on Sunday. Is that OK? I will keep the £10224 I have paid off separate, and with my Mum's debt, which is around £8k ish, I will start as debt number 2, and start with 0% paid off. Not sure I will clearing it all by Xmas, so I will still be here next year too.

    Is this OK Spagbol?

    Will you be on Stat Mat pay when you go off to have the little one? Just think, you will probably get a partial refund at the end of the tax year, so think of it as forced savings!

    A friend of mine has referred me to her company this week. I don't think they have a job available atm, but they have asked if I'm free for a phone interview next week - hopefully I can get her a referral fee too!

    Yes of course :) Just shout when you want your new number (this is how we've done it with other peeps and it seems to work well, your existing number stays as the existing challenge and then you get a second number).

    Excellent, Thanks. I will have a new number whenever you are ready. Number 11 will be paid off tomorrow, with some to spare, so I might start on my Mums debt with the rest of the money I Would normally have been paying on mine :D

    My (Mum's) new debt total is £7538, so that's what the new number will start with :) I should be able to start paying that back with £140 odd tomorrow so that can be the first payment on the new number but I will sort that out when I have the new number :D

    Thanks again Spagbol :D
