    No nobody to pour wine as DH is out at work...lol...Spud I'm really sad as I have to have targets to motivate myself or else I would end up in the shops spending money on things I want but don't need ..it's the only way i can keep myself sane(I think I'm sane though others would disagree with me)...

    Hey taxi, that is fantastic news, well done you. I can see you're saying on the post above that you have to have targets to keep you sane, but really, you're very brave putting up such a target immediately that you achieve the previous. Good luck tho, sounds like you're on a roll!

    I am so so pleased for you Taxi. There is no one on these boards that has shown a more amazing ability than you to pay off such large amounts of money when faced with the difficulties you have had, eg long period of time off work etc.

    You should be really proud of yourself, and I hope you get that 10k pretty soon.

    Thanks everyone..I really don't know how I've done it...I've only bought things that I have to have...I've cut every bill as much as I can..but I must've wasted some money before..that's the horrifying part of it...Martin is truly worth his weight in gold as are all you lovely people on here...so thanks to everyone that has helped me...bless you allxx
