Hi guys, November eh, not long now and it'll have been another year of this challenge. I can't believe the amazing amounts we've managed to shift just by making an extra payment a week, it's inspiring. I know my debt is very nearly gone but I couldn't have done it without this thread and if it's ok with everyone I would still like to post up next years thread. My heart is here debt or not.
