Hi Muppets

I am waiting to hear if I am to be made redundant at the end of the week. If I am still employed I will be using a big chunk of the money I have saved during furlough to clear 2 debts by the end of June. If I am not I will just continue with monthly payments until I get a new job.

Update for me as it's statement day for cc1. Had a partial refund i didn't expect, and upped my planned payment to the nearest hundred, so now stand at:
#175 = £6200 / £7300
Have a tiny £100 fixed rate bond ending soon so hopefully that will make up for if I can't kerb my spending enough to cover the overpayment. Keep up the hard work all
