  • Tomorrow (or whichever day they will take the 1st of the month payment - bank holiday and 2 weekend days - who knows!) my mortgage will slip below £10k!!!!
    I'll be down to four figures! (albeit a few months after the original plan, but what the heck!)
    Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!

    Only just caught up on your thread and just wanted to add my support to all the others that you have made the right decision after that incident and well done on doing so straight away and not letting it get worse. I personally wish you the very best for 2010, hoping the termination of the financial links between you goes quickly.

    Looking forward to 2010 and beyond, I know you will be moving forward positively with the OPs and with each day I hope the past year recedes more rapidly allowing you to find someone worthy of your love and who will reciprocate. :A

    Here's to 2010 - the Year of Change! :beer:

    New year, new start. I will not look back. I WILL NOT LOOK BACK!

    Looks like Jan 4th will be my sub 10k day.:j(I will not look back)

    Found a fiver in the pocket of a coat i haven't worn for ages so that can go in the pot too. Also will have cleared the credit card today (impulsive holiday to get away in october) but it was on 0% so only what i spent. From then on we're on normal living so i can start making some more concrete calculations.

    I WILL NOT LOOK BACK!
