I can be just as stroppy on the phone to a creditor as they can to me, but I couldn't be like that the other way round.

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

I could work in a call centre, but not a bullying creditor one.
To be honest, I would rather collect the trolley's at Tesco!

No, nothing as yet Penny, it's a gruelling wait, what with umpteem phonecalls a day from certain creditors. I just can't wait for the next bit of the process to get here. I was up til 1am last night just mooching about. Feel a bit rubbish at the mo!
Going for a picnic in the park today with a friend and our kids, hope the weather cheers up a bit.
Not long now Penny....everything is still corssed for you. x
7 year IVA completed in December 2016 - there is light at the end of that tunnel
I think it must be a competition as to who can collect the most!
My uncle always used to park his car away from others when he went shopping. He parked it in the middle of B&Q car park, miles away from any other cars and when he came back there was a huge dent because the trolleys had banged into it!
You're safer parking next to another car I think!

Kallis I could park on the moon and someone would park a 4 x 4 and a couple of trollies next to my motor!
Cath - chin-up, I know how you feel. I went through same down days in between completion of documents and actual proposal, but once the proposal was completed I picked up again. The whole IVA process is a "pik n mix" of emotions and we just have to keep hoping that the end result is what we all desire.
Friday will be a life-changing day for me...either in a good way or a bad way and I feel so powerless in my own future....but hey with Melanie and the team I think the odds are in our favour.
Good luck.
I came into this world with nothing and still have most of it left!
What a great post thanks for everyones input on this!
Last Friday I got the list of my paperwork over to the team so am just waiting now, been very nervous as keep thinking what if this, what if that! I will be glad when all this is over... Cant believe I got myself (and my wife) into this stupid mess but thank goodness for some brilliant people who manage to keep me and many others going... [:)]
Good luck pennyless, will be thinking of you on Friday!
Pennyless - I was just the same - I think I must have driven Melanie to the brink of insanity! However, two people on here, Jan (Kallis) and Skippy used to come to my rescue three or four times aday! I am looking forward to reading your possitive post on Friday!!! Please don't forget to post it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Daniel and good luck to you also. As you say Elv one thing we are never short of in this process is support and its great to see "Max" on a regular basis again.
Will certainly update on fri either way.
