Can i join please.
Reality check time. I've taken my head out of the sand and I'm scared . I owe over £30,000 which is double this time last year. No wonder I'm struggling for money. I've listed all my debts and hope to pay £1000 off before Xmas. I just can't believe how stupid I've been but I have to sort this before I risk losing everything. TOTAL DEBT £31524#171

Thank you abba1772!
Let's be honest...you are smashing it! You'll be next hun! You put me to shame!
But as a single woman earning not a great wage,Once I realised my **** **** ex had left me in this position, I wanted to pay it all off as soon as poss. but I then decided that, as it was all on 0% I wasn't going to kill myself to pay it all back. (sorry..too much! just overjoyed that it's over!)
You're doing great! you're almost there! x x

Abba, I'm sorry, I didn't realise that was your hubby's plan. Just think forward a few years when he's all set up though. It'll all be worth it.
Your doing a great job with all your payments though.
All the best hun.
