    Fingers crossed for you - don't overdo it with too many hours tho, I've been doing that and it's simply not manageable, for me anyway :)

    Well pay day for me today but the stupid bank had change the way we log in and I have to wait for them to send out new details. This is no good for the likes of me who checks their accounts twice a day or such ;) So no payment to be made until Monday but it will be a biggy then so I can't wait.

    Even though online banking is so handy, I have 5 different accounts all with different passwords; it's hard going trying to remember them all.
    I don't mind doing a lot of hours, if I feel I'm doing too much I let the managers know, so they can reduce my hours the following week. At least if I'm eorking I know the money is coming in ☺

    Creamtea I can't believe we are at the quarter mark already!!! Still got so much debt busting to do ��
    I guess anything to reduce debt a little helps though.

    It has flown by which is bitter sweet for me. Roll on being debt free but I don't want life to pass us all by either ! Cake and eat it springs to mind lol.

    Still plodding along with this great challenge, I have now paid off £1692/£700 or 24.2%. Which in my eyes is as close to the 25% mark as I can get for the quarter way point. Hoping for another good month in April, good luck to all and will repost when I next tot up my totals. Xxxx
