  • Well I just made an overpament on my loan of £1,647.10 which when cleared along with my normal payment on Monday will mean my debt is down to £9,500! :eek:

    I was gonna keep the money as a float for matched betting but I'm worried of wasting too much of it if it's 'lying' about in my account so best to go off the debts me thinks! :)


    that is so good SS you must feel amazing!



    and am glad the doggie is doing good too.

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Go, woofer, go!

    Great news about him and about your being sub £10k, I think you're right about paying it off. And how come you're struggling for the rest of this month, is that cos you've pulled your float right down, or is it cos you're lolling about? :rotfl:

    Thanks everyone. :)

    He was struggling on friday. Had a wee in the front room coz he couldn't/wouldn't get up! :rolleyes: Carried him outside Friday night and he hobbled straight back in.

    Then yesterday went outside for a wee. Then came in for a poo! :rotfl:

    But he's more mobile today so is on the mend. :)
