    I just think I'm a little worn out with everything, I've got too much to do and it just all got to me. :o It does sometimes doesn't it.

    I think also because we are so close to being DF we can being to realise what it will feel like and that makes the acutality of now feel worse. That sounds a bit deep but I am sure someone will know what I mean.

    Oh yes, I def know what you mean.

    Enjoy the wine.....I'll fess up too - I bought two bars of green and blacks then hid them from everyone :o

    Signature Update :beer::j:beer: a wonderful reducing £11,633
    Wow what a great feeling this is. I know its not quite the £10k I was after but its lovely and close. Its not at the £10k mark due to the fact that I had extra car bills (I've let it go) and extra insurance on my new one plus I had to clear the MBNA card of a couple of bits from last month. I'm not moaning we are really motoring now. Given we started with over £30k on cc's and overdraft getting down to this is wonderful.

    We are now left with £2k on Halifax (LOB) and now the target, £6k on RBS 0% and £3.5k on Tesco 0%. Onwards and downwards...

    Thanks to all for your continued support :beer:

    Getting there - some days it still seems like an enormous amount of debt, other days it seems to be so little that it is hardly worth bothering about :confused:
