    Im now thinking I should put all spare money to the credit card debt because this is a smaller amount, but I know it has no effect on credit file etc and feel I would get more from paying family, but its almost double the credit card :O

    Who would of thought I would be down to my last two debts, never mind debating which one I should pay off first. I feel the coser I get to my goal the more of a tizzy I get myself into. Couldnt of ignored debt forever, but dont remember being so stressed over it when I never gave it a second thought lol

    Been wondering where u got to, been checking in every day!

    Sorry to hear you haven't been well.

    Hope the debts can still make their way down, even if it has to be a lot slower, sometimes life just gets in the way.
