    So I have added everyone to the spreadsheet this morning. All should have numbers now:) I have posted everyone's numbers in the posts. If you can't see your number, check the front page posts 2 3 4 & 5 they should all be there now :D If I have missed you, just send me a PM.



    Now we all have numbers :D can we please remember to either have your number in your signature so I can see it or post it when you update and update like this


    i.e. another £50 paid off so now the total paid off for
    #001 is £315.43/£7685.67


    It just makes it easier and quicker for me to not have to look through 100 names to find you :rotfl:
    Thank you in advance
