1) Save up!
2) New computer. This one is seriously starting to grind.
3) New classical guitar. This one is now way below my standard.
4) New snooker cue. Same as the guitar.
5) Regular breaks in the Lake District.

I don't drive, drink or smoke so unsure of the rest!

[:D][:D]It's amazing how different our goals are! I managed to get a new laptop via my house insurance as the other one got dropped on the floor!

Been planning this for 4 years and 11 months now. IVA ends next month but now my employers are talking about redundancies. So will certainly be a new job and new debt free life :-)
Still planning on the American road trip next April though, there's nothing more relaxing than driving through the Nevada/Arizona/California desert. I love that part of the World.
Keep planning and be positive. It will all be over with in no time at all.

I'm going skiing. I went every year as a kid but can't afford it now and it's my favourite thing in the world. I sink into a black pit every year when a big group of family and friends head off to Val D'Isere without me :(

My hubby would love that trip in an nice motorhome! I have yet to persuade him that the Grand Canyon is awesome - he always refers to it as the 'hole in the ground'! He's not been there!

The skywalk at the canyon does look scary and awsome I have to say.

I would love to to do that - wasn't there when I went. I went with a friend and I was blown away when I got there - what an awesome place!

I'm going to consider my future as a singleton! Harsh that sounds to some but being debt free means I can have a new future.
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

There is more chance of the queen streaking at the Derby than there is of me going on the skywalk! I watched a programme about it being built and I was dizzy and shaking!

For me a new mountain bike, my current ride is still holding out, only 9 more months to go! going to cost about £2k but will be worth it, i know its a push bike but for mtb'ing it has to be a good quality piece of kit.

My other half wants a holiday of a lifetime, New Zealand would be great so 2 years saving then a month abroad, might even try a hand at marriage, she keeps mentioning it now and then.
