Good Morning, 

Weather is horrible here today, very wet and windy. My car is going for her MOT today along with a service and new break pads. I have been saving my travel expenses every month so there is more that enough to cover the cost in my car pots.

It is also pay day for me, will be moving money around later and making the last payment to Barclaycard. This will be my last pay before Christmas.

Car is back from the garage, needs discs as well as break pads, total cost £315.00. I am so pleased the money was saved ready to cover the cost, this is the most stress-free MOT day I can ever remember.

I can fully relate to this feeling, I’ve only had it a few times but it makes you feel so incontrol. 

Well Done, these things show the changes you’ve made are becoming permanent!!

Fantastic Doris. Well done on clearing another card and getting it gone. I found BC were good at sending balance transfer offers so good call.
