Hi Pelle,

hope all's well with the baby. Your debt is starting to look manageable, if I may say so. Keep shaving it off, and it'll be gone in no time.

Do you need to pay Experian for that monthly score? Isn't it £5 a month, or similar? Does it really matter in the long run?

regards

**edit**

BTW, yes, not posting so much, but reading nearly every day, commenting occasionally.

Disgusting weather in London today: rain, rain, rain. Cruised around Hampstead in a friend's car and had a pub lunch, but too muddy and wet to do anything. No gambling. Cannot think of anything more stupid than giving my money to the bookmakers. I need it in order to support my family and pay the utility bills.

Happy May Day! Today is the first time in a very long time that my current account is not overdrawn on the first day of the month following the deduction of my personal loan and mortgage payments. I have a positive balance of £46.21. It will be overdrawn again soon as the bills come out, but it is a step in the right direction and it shows that my finances are much more stable and secure now that I am a non-active compulsive gambler. I am hoping to remove my overdraft facility by the end of June to remove the temptation of gambling it away again. In the second half of this year, any surplus funds will be put towards my personal loan, my credit card bill, or deposited into my family's joint savings account.

Thank you,

And a happy rainy may day to you.

Who cares if it's raining, ( well I do a bit) , if you have reached one of goals.

Long may it continue

Take care
