    Another £735 paid so far. New total:

    A nice "short" month of 4 weeks, a bit sooner until payday 😊. Well done so far everyone, some huge dents being made.

    haha,  the extra payments are mostly from Vinted sales, so they will slow down significantly.  £10k is not my full debt, but I am being made redundant in May so want to pay off as much as possible before then so the rest can come from the redundancy payment!
