    Bad weekend for me. Blew £100 at the dog races on booze and failed bets. Ah well, holiday on Friday so not worrying about money for the rest of the month

    I'm seeing how things go over the next couple of weeks - I might round off the number on one of my accounts if I have anything left!

    Scaryness - the next payday is approx 3 days before I go on holiday! Hoping we come back with plenty of money but who knows.

    £932.19 paid off in June, making £2570.33/£6000 for the year to date for #124.

    I get made redundant at the end of this week, so depending on how quickly I find a new job, I'll hopefully be able to pay off the rest of my debts. If not, I'll be using my redundancy package just for living on. Fingers crossed that something turns up then!
    Debt free since December 2015. It can be done

    Sorry I have been distracted by personal issues but I've just got my butt together to update my totals:

    #126

    £240 paid to my Capital One account so balance is now £0
    £263.47 paid to my HSBC OD Balance now £2036.53
    So current total is £503.47/£2540.00
    Not amazing but at least its going in the right direction now....
