    Pay day has been and it's great to see the mixture of debts showing progress. The loans have had their monthly payment, lots still to go but total owed getting lower is always good.

    My first student loan payment via direct debit has gone in, the end is finally in sight. £780 to go with a dd of £65, once it gets to about £350 I will make a large final payment. This will be after our summer holidays and will be a nice mid year progress to finally clear it.

    There is potential for a promotion at work this month, need to do the sums as in my current role I get a percentage increase for unsociable hours per month. It looks like this would still be an increase and with the scale would certainly be an increase within 5 years. It would actually be about £10k, if I can keep the extra unsociable hours pay though that would be brilliant. Fingers crossed for good news in the next month!

    Credit Cards - £31050 - £23143

    Loans -  £38938

    Retail - £3752   - £2574

    Family - £6280
