    Challengers are updated - we've got 47 people signed up now! Phew.

    Absolutely nothing else to add here. I'm all out of ideas, apart from my Bubblews e-chqeue, I have nothing pending.

    We went to see our wedding venue again yesterday (here's a pic of us I posted to Instagram) and I'm getting completely overwhelmed with all the things we have to pay for. I really need to up my game, but the more I worry about it, the more I panic and don't do anything productive.

    Not to sound like a whiner, but you missed me off =(

    And KrazyKel as well.

    I understand what you mean about worrying about stuff, panicking and then getting nothing done.
    I've done that today.
    Got lots of overtime at work atm, and instead of working this afternoon, I've postponed it to later in the week as I had a bit of a meltdown.
    I then proceeded to pop into the supermarket on the way home and bought hot cross buns, donuts, trifle, sweets and toffee =(
    So much for money saving and losing weight :(
    Debts (as of 28/10/15)
    Mum: Start £3426.00 Now £2655.00 22.5% Car (on finance): Start 13823.60 Now £8728.59 36.85%
    Current Debt Free Day: 12/1/2019

    Goals:
    £2000 emergency fund £800/£2000 40%
    £5000 House Deposit £62.09/£5000 1.24%
    Car Finance Settlement Fee As of 28/10/15 £0.00/£7152.18 0%

    Oops, done now.

    It's awful, isn't it? I've managed a handful of productive things, but I know when I go home I won't manage it.
