    Just found out that my husband has got his bonus, and his cost of living increase all due in this months pay!

    This will all be plouged into our new (currently empty savings account)!

    At approx £1500 all in we plan to save what we can towards its per month.

    We have a loan from his very understanding brother which when i had a small amount of inheritence we covered for 18 months worth of payments (paid untill may 2009).

    So when the time comes we can hopefully pay him another lump sum or your never know ..... clear it!!!

    It would be great to think we could even clear the £1000 we have with Lloyds if we work really hard:j .

    This is a BIG step for us as we have never had money to save before, what a great day today is:D .
