number 46 reporting for Sept.
1,000.00 OPd this morning. Apart from a bit of interest on some bank accounts that probably it for this month. However, still paying for the extension, so I'm pleased with that.
Overall I've OPd 9,374.88 so far this year, against my 5,000.00 target, so streets ahead.
Gearing up for remortgage, so paying down CCs now and paying off car (17k) to get my outgoings down and credit file in the best shape it can be
Have a great month everyone! Thanks HS / Pawlala!
