    So jealous of @nikki2002-2008 getting paid already! I'm now limping through the rest of January!!  :#

    I have stashed £10 today and sorted a better savings account for continued stashing with a better interest rate and a limit to 3 withdrawals per year, so that will work nicely  o:)
    November 2023

    I'm always in it, it's only the depth that varies....

    Current debt: £10,806.75
    Debt free date April 2025 (though expecting this to come forward)
