    I'm lurking around until NYE - I want to start 2018 with the balances correct as at 01/01/18 ('cos that's how I roll :D)
    2018 will see me make more irregular payments than this year, as there's more CC debt to play with

    I'm still staying here until after my December pay day Muppet but I paid off £25 a few days ago so my new debt is £3,475

    Abba1772 you have been an inspiration to me. I like your small amounts often so much I have set up a SO to my CU account for £7 a week ( £1 a day)

    A pathetic 83p going out to the Halifax

    Need to watch the pennies as mortgage is due out on the 28th but I'm self employed so have two weeks off practically unpaid over the Xmas holidays so need to be careful

    Brings my total to £6826.34 / £6000

    You won't miss the £7 per week just gradually increase it to an amount you're comfortable with you can also reduce it if you find it's stretching you too much xx
