    oh dear......... five days since I last posted. Have had a death in the family and working through this has been tough although I have completed the majority of the ugly jobs so can take my time over the other things at work.


    I sold about £24 worth of things on ebay after postage and fees so a lot of work for little return ..I blew the extra spends on plus one and chocolate mainly ..lol ..never mind.


    Not much to report - debts going down as of today is £2714.. But have overpaid to get interest down...cant afford to make anymore payments this month sadly.


    Payday is 27th ...so need 90 plus travel money 80...Bank ( no overdraft ) will just about cover it.


    Might cash up my coppers this month ...not a massive amount there but a few pounds :-) and it all helps .

  • Sorry for your loss Sam. Virtual ((hugs)) and emergency pralines.

    You're doing really well on the debtbusting, you know it will happen, so do let it take a back seat for a while if you need a break.
