Hi all! 2nd post! This is rather exciting, been lurking for too long
Please can I join?

We had (2x of us) Lloan-£2000 Nloan-£2000 OD-£600 EF-£600
Now it is Lloan-£1315/£2000 Nloan-£1315/£2000 OD-£0/£600 EF-£0/£600 that is 50% paid at £52

We've been doing the square (elephant chunk) charts all year but I'd like to share on here, feels like everyone at work & friends are spend spend spend and we are save save save, which doesn't always feel great but it's for a greater good - DFW - MFW(ish) - NorfolkDuck Dreams

Today & yesterday I have listed for sale £123 worth BIN on ebsy and applied for a job which is £5,500 more than my current full time job, worth a try and I have started posting on forums :money:and I've used my first Martin :j

I've entirely coloured in my Lloan elephant chart, he's so colourful :j :j
£2000 24mth loan paid in 9 months by mostly strict house budgeting, getting a lodger and using 'quality not quantity' for days/nights out.
I can now start colouring in my overdraft baby elephant chart OH chomping through his Nloan
