    That's all the minimum payments to the cards gone out now this month. I've added up my total and there is another £100 or so of debt gone forever. :j :beer: :T

    The total now stands at £12,728.30

    I didnt have you down as old enough to 'remember Pam Ayres' :rotfl: We pay into Denpl*n - its a godsend not only because NHS dentists around here are like hens teeth ( ha ha !) but also we have been with the same dentist for years - we have grown up together - getting married, having babies, children in same class at school etc etc. I worries me that he will retire early soon too, not that we have issues with going to the dentist, but he is soooo good.

    Good news on the debt front - onward and downwards and all that :) taken out for dinner is always a plus ;) We have a dinner date tonight with friends and all I need to do is turn up with a bottle :j:

    Sorry about the tooth, but at least it can get sorted.

    Well done with the debt busting! :)

    Yes I am, funny to realise that when I feel like a newbie. I'm hoping that the first third will be the slowest third to pay off, and that with snowballing and 0% transfers done it will all speed up greatly from here on in.

    Only just, Igamogam, think my parents were into Pam Ayres, thought she was hysterical, and kept her poems alive for a while in our house! We have loads of NHS dentists up here, unfortunately if you want anything more than a check up or a filling you're better to go private. In my experience. But I can't afford that right now.

    Hi misstara

    Thanks for dropping by, always lovely to see you. :) Everything's fine thanks, except that I'm having problems with my laptop and can't get on the internet some days. I now have OH's on extended loan until I get mine sorted...hoping it's not expensive.

    Another minimum payment has gone out today for £84. I've adjusted my signature accordingly.

    Happy debt busting everyone.
