    Hi All,

    Not been very active on here but still working towards debt freedom. Hoping now the horrible long January is over things can get a bit more on track. Posted current status above. Love to be able to get below £23K by the end of Feb.

    Wishing everyone a good month.

    Hiya,

    As long as the debt is going down that is the main thing. It would be great to be sub 23k and there is a good chance you will do it!

    How is the Coke (cola) weaning going? I am just as bad with Pepsi. Haven't had one since Sunday and will try and save it for the weekends as a treat.

    We can all hopefully get our heads down and clear a bit more of the debt now Christmas has gone. Looks like you'll do well Hobsch, fingers crossed for you to get below £23k in February.

    Last Log-in was 26th Feb so I have been a naughty boy. I have not gone depressed or given up - just had both my Dad and my GF's Dad in and out of hospital at the same time and various other things with them so its all been a bit of a hassle.

    Anyway my update is:
    Creation (Lowell Financial) £166.76
    Capital One (Robinson/Way) £706.57
    MBNA £1487.99

    Wow! Aren't you doing well! That's a lot you've paid off Hobsch.

    Hope the Dads are both okay!

    Thanks. Its been a real struggle the first 2 months of the year. Both on the debt front and generally.

    I was reading above about getting below the £23K by the end of Feb but thats not happened so hope to by the end of March/early April instead.
