  • Good morning fellow PADders :hello:

    My PAD today is another £2 to moneybox please Dizzy Imp :T

    Like you Erme, I believe in the power of the PAD but I never underestimate the power of chocolate! :o

    Hi-de-hi campers! Hope you're all ready for the challenge of Friday 13th :eek:

    Congratulations Kirsty on getting your first home - it's very exciting news! Keep us updated on your plans x BTW nice PADding this month - go girl :T

    Yesterday saw us collectively PAD an impressive £202.48. Well done everyone! Sorry if my comment yesterday about doing better wasn't well recieved, I did intend it to be lighthearted but sometimes things change in translation into text...all payments however large or small are to be celebrated...

    My PAD today is £200 x

    Enjoy the fun on TV tonight (sorry Erme) for Children in Need :)

    No apology needed Dizzy Imp!! For me it does make me think.. can I PAD a little more today? It does spur me on to try and do more where I can! Just seeing the positives in everything :)

    And therefore, my initial PAD was £3 to the overdraft, but I've added on another £20 that I've sent to Barclaycard... therefore a PAD of £23 today thanks :)

    Can I put myself up as an early volunteer counter upper for December? I really think it will help me focus on debt repayments and minimising unnecessary spending!

    Have a good day everyone x
  • put £5 aside today to go to the next bill. many thanks

    Well as I'm up and have been up most of the night with poorly Small, I thought I'd post!

    Yesterday's total is £238.99 - thank you Sunshine for your kind words x

    Hearing some horrendous news about Paris this morning - utterly devastating for those involved. Puts my debt problems into perspective :(

    My PAD for today is £45 x
  • Morning!

    My last PAD for a while as we are going on holiday (not sure if I mentioned it :rotfl: )

    Anyway, a round down of £17.42 to Halifax please Dizzy Imp :)

    See you all soon! :wave:

    Absolutely horrible and I agree.

    Enjoy your holiday LMD - enjoy and keep safe.

    My babies got extra cuddles this morning after hearing about Paris - France have had a horrendous year of being targets of evil.

    My PAD today to Barclaycard is £9.01.
