    Hi muppets- please can I join the challenge if I'm not too late? I only just came across this thread. I sooo want to pay off all our credit cards by Christmas (though we'll still have a £8300 loan to clear).

    My details are:
    EmmaMicawber
    Target: £58,000
    Paid off this year so far: £4496/ £58,000

    If it's no bother could I have #99 - it reminds me of summer on the beach :)
