Oh I love a spreadsheet!
Once you holiday is done you can just throw as much as you can to the debt & you are determined so you will defo do it.
I have a wee Gryffindor book I bought at Harry Potter World & it has all my bills in it & I would be lost without it!!!
I write everything down in there.
I will hopefully be following you into debt freedom by December 2016, seems like forever away.

Once I come back I might not have as much due to the "lovely" HMRC lowering my tax credits by 200. But will see what I can do. I will be better off from August and my son starting school

At the moment it looks like I'll be debt free by July/August 2016 but ideally I'm trying to aim for May 2016 as it's my birthday that month and it would be so fab to have it all paid off by my 32nd birthdayMortgage 26.4.25 - £108,500 1.8.25 - £106,362.86
Mortgage overpayment savings - £3.33/£50

We will aim Miss Tara to be debt free same time together next year
It can be achievable so lets do this

Anyway 3 weeks until payday and 15 days until tax credits come in. I have the nursery write a lovely letter of confirmation what I pay them for HMRC. I will photocopy this and send this to them. Pains in backside sometimes lol!

Also posted the HMRC letter away to them and after it my dad says I should have had it recorded delivery... so bit worried now! Will call them next week ensure they have received it though
