    a small announcement....

    I AM DEBT FREE!!!

    Yay! :D go me!

    However i'll still be hanging around as it's now time to focus on OHs debts.

    So Mini, can I have a 2nd target of £5000 please? I've no idea how doable it will be to clear it by Christmas, especially with our impending house move too.

    £800 off £2500.00

    I have a feeling I've paid something else off before I went on holiday and haven't put it on here, so I'm now off to trail through the thread to see if I did or not lol.

    BTW just seeing some posts about being debt free :T CONGRATULATIONS to all who have managed to clear - or almost cleared their debts wile I've been away:beer:
