    Happy New Year fellow PADders - here's to a year full of fun and happiness (and a bucketful of debt-busting ;) )

    What a fantabulous total for December - well done everyone :beer: Thank you Sunshine for keeping tabs x Right, you 'orrible lot - it's me counting this month. I'll have no slacking or failure to report in on a regular basis :rotfl:

    £42.87 to start me off. Had a hugely expensive month just gone, so I am now squeaking and pulling in anything that sticks out :eek:

    You do have a way with words Dizzy :) I'm currently giving the untidy £70 on my signature a hard Paddington stare to try and get it under the £500 point for end of month. Ebay selling plans a go go.
