Bobble Hat is Debt Free!

Hi all,

I wanted to share my happy news. I made my final debt payment this morning and am now debt free. I have few belongings, but have a roof over my head, great housemates and money in the bank, and I feel fantastic!

I just want to say a muhassive
THANK YOU! :T
to all you fantastic people for words of advice and encouragement and your unfailing good humour. My journey won't end here though, I will still be around because I want to re-adjust my budgets and start saving to buy the bigger things I sold, like a home and a car. Or maybe just a houseboat.

The possibilities are endless. Good luck to you all on your Debt free journeys. :beer:

With much Love Bobbly xxxxx
