    #19 checking in to report I've paid £250 off the car, now at £2,866. Next month I'll hit the halfway point!

    However I'm paying for a medical procedure next week which will cost £800-£1,000 so will have to add this to my total. I WILL get this cleared this year too.

    @muppets sorry if this messes up my figures, I'll update once I know the exact cost to be added.
