Hey Pablosammy. Sorry you've been in a bad place recently but I wanted to say thanks for running this thread and a HUGE well done on getting your debts sub-£10k!!!! I don't think it makes you sad at all to be emotional, it's a big achievement!

Thanks for the kind words, twiggy! I can only imagine how it will feel to make that last settlement phone call :rotfl: My peak debt was over £40k!

Hi Amy, sorry for the delay. You're number 180 (try saying that without doing it in a darts commentator voice!). I'm an engineer too, so you're definitely welcome along :beer:

Thanks Pablosammy. Not an engineer anymore though, now an accountant. I was told by many people that engineers make the best accountants - something to do with the logical way our brain sets everything out!


Congrats on getting your debt down so much, great achievement. It will be the end of the month (payday) before I can update, still trying to work out my budgets and get used to putting stuff in different pots before payment!

Cheers Amy. I actually went into finance after doing an engineering degree, before switching back to engineering! Might investigate another career change at some point... :rotfl:

Haven't updated in a while so hope everyone is alright? 9 weeks to go until baby arrives :eek::eek:

Lounge is complete in the new home now, got the curtains and rail up (badly due to seriously hard concrete) and painted the final coat on that wall too.

Nursery still needs to be done but OH's Dad will be helping out with that so we should be ready for when baby arrives.

Happy debt paying guys
