    Erme, I love your dancing llamas! Hope the pancake was lovely - now I'm craving pancakes.... :)
    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 😭

    Hi All,

    My PAD for today is £50 to Barclaycard, consisting of the minimum payment and a round up to make it 50.

    Hope you've had a good day despite the temperamental weather. It's scorching here with no breeze, so I would appreciate a bit of rain. We're never satisfied are we? lol

    Thanks,
    Keedie xx

    Good morning everyone

    Payday has arrived for me and coupled with the fact that I can't sleep means I've already done my budget for the month and made some payments and transfers... It's not even 7am!

    So, £800 has been sent to cc1, £360 to EF and £30 to my sabbatical fund. Giving me a total PAD today of £1190

    That's my only whopper for the month though :D

    Right, after all the number crunching I think I deserve some breakfast!!

    Have a fab Friday

    LMD xx

    TGIF Friday folks! Ooh, that's just reminded me - must put the bins out...

    Thursday's total was a magnificent £328.25, which is fabulous, especially just before payday. I can see LMD has prepared us to go out with a bang with her payday PAD for tomorrow's total :T

    *cough* Erm, with the end of August looming, I'm putting out feelers for a counter upper for September please....? I might not be PADding every day, due to the building works finally getting started, so need to pass on the baton :o Any takers?

    £10 for me to BC today.
