    Hi Emily,Sorry to hear that you had an accident keep your chin up. I am glad you feel better. My mum ran into a deer (we live in countryside) and nearly wrote off her car a few years ago. I was in the car at the time and it still is a shock! Karma always works it's magic! xx
    I am full of joy, abundance, wealth and love.

    Glad you're feeling a bit happier and I like your attitude towards that stupid woman - I'm sure she'll get hers (although maybe she already did, poor thing - the kid sounds like a bit of a handful!)

    Good to hear you're back on track - get ready for next month!!!

    Hi everyone

    I have started a new challenge - http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?p=6109963#post6109963

    Take a look at it and see if you want to join. The more the merrier!!

    As for this challenge, I haven't been able to clear anymore off just yet but I've got £100 from Ebay sales coming to me on Wednesday although some of this will have to go towards my excess :mad: and I've also got £30 coming from mystery shopping so I should be able to pay £40 off it at least to bring it down to £200.
