Well we are nearly at Christmas. Not posted much recently as I am mostly at sea.
Managed to clear £15,676 this year and really happy. Going in to 2015 my signature is updated and I need to pay £19,373 to become totally debt free (apart from mortgage).
I have gone through my spreadsheet and think I can really do it. Going to be a year of hardship but this past year has been well worth it.
So wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and hope at least for one day, we can all have a blow out and enjoy ourselves. (Debt Jan 2014 LBM £34,000) Current 2016 "Problems" as follows:
