    Morning all,

    £5 for me today please :)
    Let’s just pretend I have not been alternately drowning in debt or only eating toast to try and pay it off for the last 20 years 😭

    Hiya Everyone,

    I'm counting down the days until my redundancy payment comes through, as I am struggling at the moment, but pooling together my pennies to keep padding, so that I feel more in control of the situation... :(

    My bank skim today is £2.88 please Dizzy, going to MBNA.

    Thanks,
    Keedie

    Hi All,

    I just updated my signature to reflect additional borrowing to cover a group holiday, where the accommodation fell through and we needed to rebook ASAP whilst waiting for the refund. So it increased by £2,100 :eek::eek::eek:

    BUT I have just checked my other account and some of the refund from Airbnb has come back :j:j:j so an additional pad of £1,000 please Dizzy. Just waiting on the rest of our group to send me the additional payments so that I can clear the additional amount borrowed from the Bank of Dad :)

    Thanks,
    Keedie
