    You have my sympathies - I got a speeding ticket at the beginning of the month. My own fault, I know, and money stupidly wasted :(

    Several small payments totalling £65.86 for me and I think that's it for August...

    #85 £21,182.28/£45,868.02 = 46.1%

    I'm sorry to hear about your ticket, it's so annoying isn't it.

    I am actually going to appeal mine, as it's for 4 minutes of parking....I was actually on the phone to the automated payment line which was having issues.

    Hi guys! Congrats to the debt free members! I'm sorry I forgot your names... I'm only on my phone at the mo.

    Pay day here, but waiting for people to come forward looking for fees before we can pay anything. We are doing quite well financially, but think it won't last long! It helped that we already had a few bits of furniture, so we just needed a few key pieces. We got a nice sofa and armchair second hand, and a few inexpensive bits from IKEA.

    Internet will be installed in 10 days, then we'll be back in the proper swing of things.

    Payday today, sadly all my money has been spent on bills and living costs.
    Going to sell some more things on ebay and gumtree this week and hopefully raise a bit more.

    Well done to everyone continuing on this journey, no matter how big or small your payments, you're debt is going down not up.
    Be proud :beer:
