    Well done pawlala. Shame I m in the 'must do better' category. Well done to those who are on or above target though.

    This month I doubt I will be over paying much. Not to worry though. September should be good with my pay rise back dated and two regular savers coming to the end. May be able to pay off a good amount. I say may beacause we are going to be working on the kitchen etc so will be spending a load of money on that.
