    I have made a few small overpayments but funds are tight due to changing jobs and waiting for a full month of pay.

    I'm at £40 out of £600. A bit disheartening but should shift the bulk of this at the end of October, fingers crossed.

    Hi all,

    I’m still here, still ploughing along. Was £2012.45 now at £1683.60. Hoping to make bigger payments each week now as more overtime available. Also I’m slowly but surely reducing my outgoings :-)

    I'm late to the thread but I'm still happy to set a goal to aim for until the next challenge starts.

    I'm going to aim to reduce one of my credit cards by £125, ready for the new challenge in November.

    I'll update where possible and find ways to make extra payments.

    Very unexpectedly - one of my cats' insurance policies paid out. So I have £66.50 to add to my pay down pot. I thought I couldn't even find a spare 10p at the moment.
