    mop up pre-pay day, anything left from xmas working money (£200) now payed off the card- also had to load my other card as i broke a tooth and had it repaired! but payed it off instantly so as to not increase target.

    #175 = £3700 / £6700

    bonus month next month so hoping to remain in the same frame of mind and attack it whilst i can- i think i'm due a little treat though! Thanks to everyone for posting your payments it's definitely keeping my eye on the goal!  B)
