Happy bank holiday all. Whilst i know this forum is for serious post i have just been sat here playing with the letters and have come up with this.
BEFORE BC
M= MONEY, the mother of all evils.
O= OVERDRAFT/OVERLIMIT charges.
N= NUMEROUS phone calls.
E= EMPTY purse,bank account.
Y= YES another nasty letter in the post.
DURING BC
S= SEEKING legal advice from a debt charity.
A= ACCEPTING bc is your best option.
V= VISIT to court for bc hearing.
I= INTERVIEW with OR.
N= NICE/NASTY now you know.
G= GETTING your life back on tract.
AFTER BC
E= EXPECT to have to budget hard.
X= EXPENDITURE:D be careful.
P= PENNIES need to watch them.
E= EARLY discharge if you are very lucky.
R= REGAINING some sort of normaility.
T=THE discharge date approaches.
D= DISCHARGE
O= OVERJOYED
T= THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.
C= CLOSING that chapter of your life.
O= OVER and done with- finito
M= MAKE SURE YOU NEVER GET INTO DEBT AGAIN.
Perhaps others could add theirs, i'm sure we there must be some darker and lighter interpretations of this and just thought it might help us to write them down. Hope nobody minds me using a thread for this and i really look forward to max's take on this as he has a very wacky(and that was a compliment max before you take it the wrong way)sense of humour.This is not to detract from all the poster who need our help toady.

:T :T Truly brilliant Dalip.
Of course we can have light hearted posts on here. They can take our CC's, bank accounts and homes, but not our humour:D
It way too early for me to add to the post (first cup of tea hasn't hit the sides yet) but i'll have another look when i can peel my eyes apart:rolleyes:The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter
