    Hi Everyone!

    Long overdue update! Debt busting not going so well... at all!

    In fact we are adding to it :( OH has got a new job, which means no company car, and a loan is having to be taken out to cover a new one.

    I go back to work this month (been on maternity leave) so income will be increasing - so will be back here once the car has been purchased and I have a new 'total debt' amount to give - aim is still to clear it by Xmas!!!!

    Congrats to Mat_Lock!!

    You need to talk to Firewrym about that - she can shed light on MOTs so you will never, ever overpay for work again! Hoping your car passes though - £200 would be a fabulous amount to use against your debt. Got everything crossed for you x

    Sold a basket on fb and paying a cheeky £3 off the card....every little helps! ;)

    New totals:

    #28 £235/£2000 11.75%

    Holiday savings are slowly going up as well. Everything we can save is money we won't need to add to the card in May!! ;)
    Saving for Disney again, oops why book one Disney holiday when you can book two!
