I've not posted too much in the last few weeks, for obvious reasons plus I don't have as much time anymore what with cooking, washing and cleaning! :rolleyes:

Hey skinty.
Yeah it's still going down. Loan payment is £371 a month and I can't pay less than that so it is still going down thank god. Just need to get back into the groove a bit more! :think:0 -

Meal planning is the way forward, definitely.
I'm fine thanks, still in debt, still rubbish, still overspending but hey, I have a noo car which is fabby and I love it so it's all worthwhile. The cycling may have been better exercise but it was getting cold and wet as summer was so rubbish.Debt at highest May 2006: £27,472.24
