You are doing fantastically well!
Make sure that the washing up is shared equally between you and whoever else is in the house... might make them be prepared to 'give up' some things in order to buy a new dishwasher
Also might be worthwhile looking on 'freecycle' ... some good stuff given away for free when people decide on new kitchens.;)I Believe.....

DS1 helped with the drying up yesterday. A mug fell out of the cupboard onto the leftover pineapple upside down cake which was in a glass dish. More practise needed I feel.0

You are doing so well! I love the idea of splitting the debt into 100s. I used to update with percentages paid off but I haven’t done this for a while, you’ve reminded me how much I liked it - I should do it again.
Eurocamping sounds great, which part of France are you going to?0 -
The Vendee- it will be the 4th time we've been. Really lovely and loads to do.0

Keep up the good work and splitting the debt into £100's is a good idea and brilliant motivation when each £100 disappears.0 -
Still fat, just trying to get off the diet merry go round!0

£15 of Amazon vouchers so far on the surveys. Pretty pleased with that - will save them towards Christmas. Aiming to raise £300 through surveys and extra work.0

That sounds achievable, surveys can be quite lucrative. Have you joined Prolific Academic? There are A LOT of screening questions at the outset but I’ve had a lot of well paid surveys through them.0
