Hello everyone, sorry I've not posted for a while, can't believe where the last couple of weeks have gone! I've managed to get some overtime and have never been away from work for last three weeks, managed to get some contingency set aside and car decided to show it's teeth and landed us with a nice little £300 bill. [:(!]

So all overtime worked in vain....typical. I know it would have been worse if the money wasn't there but still, sometimes you just think that you'll never be able to get any savings built up. Really didn't want to have to ask if we could miss a payment, not after only three months and now the overtime has dried up again, hey ho!!!! [:(]

Now I've had a whinge, I hope everyone is keeping well, congrats to anyone who has been accepted in the last few weeks and good luck to anyone having meetings this week coming

Hi Beans,

It's always the same isn't it when you think you are getting back on your feet!

I'm sure these things are deliberatly sent to try us when we are in an IVA to see how we cope without money!

Hopefully the car will be well again soon.

The gremlins seem to have been working overtime recently with avatars going missing, and posts not being added on.

Sorry to hear about your car but hope you can soon replace the savings, I've got no savings, one month behind but I'm still smiling as I know I'm better off mentally in an IVA than the stress I was experiencing before.

Sorry to hear about your car Beans - I refer to mine as a mobile money pit!

Car is all better now, even washed it yesterday, got up this morning and realised that ours was the only car in the street that had been targetted, by what could only have been, a flock of giant eagles!!!!
