Back with some PADs to debt (not 100% planned!) but
£31.79 to debt.
£30 above min payment as at the very top of credit limit, a 'suprise' transaction hit just after minimum payment, and I was worried that come statement day on Monday when the interest was added, I would go over limit. I think it should be okay now, but honestly interest calculations on the cards are a mystery to me how to work out what it will be when there's been spending.
£1.79 to the next account becuase attempting to math and remmeber odd pennies was annoying me. So made it a nice round even number to deal with!
