Erm.....oopsy worked out how much we owe.

It's slightly more than we first thought, £43,000 actually:o .
Give or take a few hundred pounds.:eek:

So erm looks like I'll be here for a few years.:p There's always a brightside.;)

Update re stuff, house is for sale, car will be for sale, trike will be for sale, most contents of house will be for sale.

Ebay here I come.:rotfl:

It actually feels better knowing rather than guessing and slowly but surely OH is coming on board about it all........only took a year or so :D .

Toodles.

    I was but trying to pin my OH down has been a different matter.

    No worries, we're in it together, we'll sort it together.;)

    At least you know what you are working with now.

    Since I put together the big picture, rather than the one I was kidding myself I was working too, I have been far more motivated than I was before! More determined than ever to get that debt down.

    well done for finding out the true amount, at least you won't feel that there maybe more lurking at the back of the filing cabinet. And now OH is on board that should hopefully make it easier to tackle. You aren't the only one who will be around a for a long time, so welcome to the club, i think by the time i finally become debt free i'll have so many DF friends that i would have to hire a castle to celebrate the big DF day.
