There haven't been any 'official' updates on this thread since I subscribed to it. I don't want to tread on anyone's toes but I wondered if people might like me to make a new thread and take over the running of it? I don't mind - but don't want to offend the OP.

Well since I was last on here
I have - drum roll please :T:T:T:T:T
Repaid £7475 Balance now £725 88.41% paid :j:j :beer:
How did I do it? Well I found YNAB and with careful monitoring of all pennies - giving every £ a job I have discovered I can live well within my budget and also repay my debts.
And on top of this I have savings of £3,200 :A :rotfl: :money:
And if I can figure out how to update my signature i will do so too. (figured out and now updated)
