My debt is cleared MD said I didn't need to pay her and SFD back, I would like to start a savings PAD as soon as possible, I need to wait until September! I will aim for £1K first.2

My PAD today is £3, although annoyingly I’ve had to add a bit to my overall debt. Ah well, clearing debt doesn’t always happen in a straight line27/5/17 Mort 64705 BTs 1904031/12/17 Mort 59815 BT 1673007/04/20 Mort 49208 BT 1572128/07/20 Mort 47387 BT 1263414/11/20 Mort 45905 BT 10134 20/05/21 Mort 42335 BT 686811/08/22 Mort 32050 BT 2915Sealed Pot Challenge 16 Number 51

£1,019.63
That is the total for 1 Aug 25 which is a fine start to the month.
I’m conscious that a lot of us are having personal struggles at the moment. I will try to add something a little positive with each daily update. Today I’m attaching a photo from this morning. The ThatcherS cider balloons were up and about early. I think that sometimes the photos don’t quite do justice to the actual sight.

£3.61 for my PAD today

Debt free in 2026 - £0 of £4,117.471 -
Thanks @AntoMac for the piccies and comments I am debt free MD said I don't have to pay her and SFD back! however I am borrowing again to get the second bedroom more comfortable for me to sleep in and new lodger taking my room. I am getting a quote for Cupboard reducing size tomorrow morning, It will be great if I can keep part of the cupboard as opposed to ripping it out, as I could do with the storage, I am expecting it to not cost more then a months plus the money from Bank switch. So all looks good here! I hope this is some good news for you to read antomac, also I hope to get a job soon. XX.3
