    lol.
    The DF has been on hold a bit recently as I was jobhunting etc... but to cut a long story short we're about to clear the egg card (For the 3rd time :rotfl:)
    I'm a trainne debt adviser with the CAB, doing an OU 'you and your money course' which starts soon, doing ann summers parties..

    Debt currently stands at £6454
    but by the middle of may it will be around £5545 once the egg cards clear and another Car payment has gone :D:)

    As for DFD? No idea. As soon as possible. Next target it the TV I think.. (I keep changing my mind :rotfl:) so then once that's gone we can pile everything into paying off the car which runs til Oct 2010 unless we pay it off sooner.

  • Oh wow, so less than half of what you had when you started. That's really good hun!!

    It sounds like you've been really busy. Good for you! It sounds like your confidence is coming on leaps and bounds too.

  • Cool! I saw you on it last time...my god that carpet! ;) Only kidding hun. I thought you were really good. I'll have to watch tonight as well.

    Yeah I've been ok. This planning a wedding malarky is becoming a bit of a full time job. How much everything costs really stressed me out at first but now I'm kind of resigned to the fact that if we want "x" then we have to pay "y". But still we've got a gorgeous wedding and honeymoon booked and it's all being paid for with savings! My GOD, we have SAVINGS!! I still can't qute believe it :o
