Hello,
Headabovewater hope you got HMRC sorted.
OH got a letter to say his tax code has been changed so fingers crossed it's all sorted for his payday next week (fo some reason he gets paid on the 10th of the month !!)
Well it's a new month, and the O/D has gone, so will be updating my sig with the next debt to focus on. All the cards are 0% so just going to focus on the biggest.
Have a few more items on ebay and they are going well so a bit more to come in there too.

Hi,
So now 27% paid off, :j feels really good. I will have a few more payments this month too, as I havea couple of items going on ebay, and a refund and cashback to come through, and about to send another lot of books and CD's of to one of those places that by them. So should have an even lower number by the end of the month.
Can't wait for payday as then I will have a 9 as the big number, will be very good to be in single figures.

Just updated my signature in time for payday later this week. Managed to pay of another £60.00 it all adds up.
Payday should see me in the 9's so looking forward to that.
Got a few more things to pop onto ebay, so will get those done over the next few weeks, it all helps.

Hi,
Well it's my payday today, and we have a 9 :T 32% paid feeling very good about that. There is still more to be paid of when OH gets paid so it's going to get even lower, I'm going to aim for an 8 by the end of the month.
OH has now had his tax back and it's much more that we thought nearly double the amount, so we have put some aside for his Van MOT, because as he has been in full time work long he doesn't have much of a fund for this. We are also going to get the camper van serviced, as it is important to look after these things, are there will still be some left over for extra payments.Anything left after the MOT and Service will also go towards debt, we won't be frittering anything away.
I've also been through our books, CD's and DVD's on the selling sites again and found another £74 worth. so that will help too. So all going in the right direction.

Hello All,Thanks for the lovely comments :-)Few more payments made and another 1% gone, OH gets paid next week so that will really help too.Our Mortgage fixed rate comes to an end this month, and we have been accepted for a much better rate that will leave us another £100.00 a month better off, so fingers crossed it all goes through if so we will have a new DFD of 28th August (my payday) so really keeping everything crossed for this.OH has been doing lots of overtime so has promised to give me some extra this month as well bless him so we will def see an 8 this month.FaeLBM 29/10/2013 £14,218.00 As of 13/04/2014 £6477.00
