    #147 checking in with a payment of £395 after payday, yay!

    That includes £75 rebate from switching energy supplier in MSE’s big switch so thanks MSE.

    So that’s #147 £432/£1682

    Likely to be smaller payments after this for a while but you’re all helping me stay motivated and find little extra payments here and there. Thanks everyone! If we can collectively pay almost £70k in Jan the toughest month, then it’s onwards and upwards from here folks!

    Welcome you are #165





    Welcome you are #166 No talking yourself out of it now that you have a number :j
    When you post your updates you can say "£50 added / paid off

    Total now = £500 / 5,500 " etc
    What ever amount you then post as your total, I just update the spreadsheet with that. there are lots of totals that go up and down throughout the year :rotfl:

    Thank you Muppets :T:T
