    Thanks Abba I made my target, trying to reach 4k by end of August. Just need to find 400 pounds somehow.

    Sorry little diary haven't been on here much. Couple of weeks of back pain has got in the way of life. Physio next week.

    Decided to have one month intense debt busting and next month a more chilled out one, as so easy to feel bit down when not having a social life. Shall see how this method works.

    Have a lovely weekend folks.x

    Woooooooooo :j go you well done xx

    Sorry to hear about your back hope physio works for you xx

    Looks like that's all my debt busting for this month. Gutted made a wee mistake on my spreadsheet and now am broke till middle of September.

    Unfortunately had to part with my faithful hound last week besides being very upsetting was added to my cards. Had 13 good years with her, so lots of happy memories.

    Total stands at 4200 short of a miracle will remain like that until Sept.

    Well thought now the nights drawing in make more of an effort with my diary.

    This months tale stupidly ran up another credit card on car insurance, house repairs, microwave and odd bits to the tune of nearly 600. So being playing catch up with that as usually clear it each month and determined I will not pay interest - currently have 350 pounds to pay by 5.10.15 argh!

    Today paid 112.00 off my regular debts so that balance stands at 4048.00.

    Hopefully be back on track by second week in October.

    Keep going folks we can do it ;-)

    We're the same regarding the credit card so much so it never gets used and had to use it for new wheels for the car, shopping at Asda etc was so out of character for me to use it they phoned me to double check it was me using my card :rotfl:

    Hoping october to will get us back on track too xx

    I've just done the same thing with my other CC although I snuck a sneaky £619 iPhone on to it too making it almost double the amount you've run up. :( I feel so naughty...

    Oh well. Everyone has setbacks, we just have to climb back on and carry on :)

    Well been very naughty and spent well over double your amount on a smeg fridge freezer. In my defence my other fridge/freezer packed in after just 6 yrs just lets say won't be a hotpoint one again. Never felt as if reached right temperature. Smeg one complements my kitchen and is gorgeous and I have always wanted one. Now I need to knuckle down and start paying for it, got 0% free purchases on cc until May next year. Going to keep my cc totally seperate from main debt as want to see progress on both.

    However nothing to report this week and going to a gig tomorrow, minimum spend hopefully. Then except for my birthday staying in rest of October let the hibernation begin. Off to gather my nuts.

    Have a lovely weekend whilst the weather lasts x
