    What a pain with the hire car! Hope you get it sorted at no cost to yourself.

    I always like it when I know I have a few bits of money coming in from difference places - it's reassuring :)

    Well done on the weight loss and commitment to insanity! I did it a few years ago and really en joyed it even though it almost killed me. Haha My BIL did it and lost 2 stone over the 4 weeks (and he wasn't following the diet particularly) so it definitley does work.
    CC1: £4481.14/ £5031.14 (12% paid off, £600) | CC2:£3307/ £3807 (14.4% paid off, £550) | Loan: £10,528.20/ £15,792.30((33% paid off, £5,264))

    July debt total: £24,630.44 | New debt total: £18,316.34 | Total debt paid: £6,414.10 (26%)
