Average person's debt

Hi all. Just wondering if anyone knows roughly what the average adult person's debt is in the UK currently, NOT including mortgages. Last year I heard it was around the £8,000 mark.
I'm 27 and I owe about £5,000 in total for a car loan and credit card which I think is bad enough, I am trying to pay them off asap. Luckily I don't have a mortgage, not yet anyway!

That figure include stooze debt? (which probably makes it look worse than it is)
I'm at 10k... looking to increase to 20k....
The more the merrier
Still, suppose the stoozers amongst us make up a tiny tiny percentage.0
