Finally getting somewhere!

Hey all, I haven't posted in a while so here's a quick update

Lowell - £672.00 offered me discount so (£504 at £168 pm)
Marbles - £1072
Vanquis - £668
Satsuma - £332

Hoping to have Lowel and Satsuma paid by December, I can then focus on Marbles and Vanquis. I feel a lot less stressed now as well, finally seeing an end even if it's still a long way. :j
