  • Evening Everyone....Hope you are all staying warm in this Weather :)


    skye blue .... I couldn't figure out if you have an Update to the Emergency Fund or not...It could be that I'm tired....so I wondered if you could clarify :)


    Mothernerd .... Congratulations on the Cheque that you received...that's brilliant!! And a MASSIVE boost to your Emergency Fund...I've Updated the First Page.... :)


    I think we all need Treats sometimes....especially when it's the long haul on the Debt Repaying.....So don't ever think you'll get judged on this Thread for having Treats :D

  • Just watching one of my fence panels flapping in the wind... Surprised it's held on as long as it has. It is not an emergency! I will not be spending on it! Once it's died down, I'll ask my dad to bring up his trusty hammer and one of the bits of timber he's had in his garage for decades to cobble it all back together. I don't care what it looks like...

    Hi, can I join please? I've been on the £1000 emergency fund thread for a while and have managed that. I seem to be stuck on around £1400 now. It increases every pay day, but is back down again by the end of the month! I would like to aim for £5,000, but accept this could take a very long time!

    £1357.67/£5000.
