    Right........
    Hello everyone :hello:

    I've just joined after being a massive lurker and a bit like one of those people who starts something, and then gives up when the going get tough.

    But this time is for good....I am determined to be debt free ASAP.

    I'm going off to start a diary now, but just wanted to pop into here to say hello and hope I'm not gate crashing.

    Hello Missy :hello:

    Ellidee, I think you're right - the right job will come along (though I can probably do some stuff to help myself towards it). I got this one after about 20 applications and 6 interviews, and although it is fairly dull work-wise, it's given me some good experience and I've met some lovely people through it. And it gave me the means to move to the city where I wanted to be!

    Having just spent two hours looking at train journeys across Europe for my holiday I'm considering becoming some sort of travel consultant... :D
    Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012.

    Indeed. The last time I wanted to 're-acquaint myself with my Passionate-Pink it wasn't there, nor was it under the bed, in the bedside cabinet (in his bedside cabinet), between the mattress and the bed base, in the bathroom anywhere:confused::confused::confused:

    It's not the sort of thing you'd want "used" but it did the job nicely and I just can't find it :(.
