    We have today paid off a creditor which leaves us with 5 to go and debts dipped under £14,000. We started at £48,000 so I'm very happy. Just need to keep going.

    Can I add a my Milestone achievement to this.....

    23th June last year debt stood at £52K - on 5th July this year debt stands at £36K, still a long way to go, but 30% reduction and I am proud of that!

    Would like a Pimms with my strawberries to watch the tennis this afternoon!

    After 5 years of paying off a £10,000 loan at 18.9% (!) I have just paid my final payment!

    I still have a ridiculous amount of other debt to pay off though sadly, totaling above £20,000. So I gouess my next milestone will be to get it under £20,000.
