Well done on the payments. It will be fab if 2021 sees the debt gone.

Any reduction in your DFD is great

Thank you everyone.

I appreciate all who take the time to post in my diary.   @beanielou @savingholmes @[Deleted User] and @astrocytic_kitten you are the ones who have never given up on me even though I'm not a regular poster (although more regular than I have been) and please know that I might not always post in your diaries but I'm a regular reader.

I'm secretly hoping that the debt will be gone by the end of July.  I'm trying not to say too much out loud at the moment as it is all based on predictions but it will come down to using a fair bit of my EF.

@savingholmes if I remember correctly, you are looking at a DFD of June ish so we could celebrate together!

I’ll fashion some pom-poms for you and join the cheerleading squad with @beanielou and @savingholmes. Are you in too @astrocytic_kitten?  

Gap, you were such a helpful force for me shifting my debt, I am definitely here to cheer you to the end of this loan

astrocytic_kitten

Yes, I’m late to the party today but definitely joining the GAP cheer squad! As BCNS said, you’ve been such a big support to us and I was so pleased to see you start posting again 😊

Hope your health is continuing to recover, take it easy GAP.

All aboard for the cheer squad

❤️ you are all lovely xx

Just had a £20 pay out from Shoppix.  Sent it over to the loan.

I'm looking forward to the days when a £20 pay out means a small treat for us.

Can I make a wee suggestion?
Every now & then you could think of splitting your payment to your loan & have a wee treat.
You are worth it  xx

Thank you for the suggestion and your kind words but I have to admit that the money I send over to the loan at the end of each week comes out of an allowance for general spends.  Whatever is left over is what I send.  It's £40 per week which is quite generous.  This week I have nothing left over to send on Thursday night as I was a bit spendy at the weekend (we had lunch out and I paid for coffee with bf since he has actually paid the past four times!)

What I meant by my comment was that when I do things to get extra cash outside of my day job and digs from LMG it will be nice to have more choices about what to do with it.
