:wave: Hello my lovelies,
I'm not around very much at the moment because kicking the Alliance and Leicester's butt for making my 78 year old mother in law cry has been taking up most of my spare time.
Plus sorting out her bank account has kind of segued into overhauling all of her finances. It turns out she's paying all kinds of things she doesn't need to - such as equipment rental for a BT phone when the phone in question has been non operational and in the attic for the last 21 years for example.
I'm glad we're all still plugging away though. I'll update our new total at the end of the month.

How is everyone today? I'm not feeling too brilliant today, wasn't well yesterday and generally feeling quite down today. Just hacked off I guess, I know my debt will be gone one day but I'm feeling like I'm getting nowhere fast. Anyone else feel this way from time to time?CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0

Hi all, hope you are all well!!!
Update from me, been working hard to pay back my debts, they are down from £27k to £18k so far, another £1950 will be taken off at the end of this month (Big commission month) so I will be down to around the £16k mark.
That will mean 11k in 9 months, gonna try to get to 15k paid off by the end of the year!
Hopefully, being so good with my money will help to save for a house once i am back in the Black!DEBT FREE - FEB 2010 :beer: (LBM £24,000)
House Deposit 2010 - £2500 / £10,000 Saved
