  • Thanks TF - gonna give it a try as I can't remember when my payment was due for this particular card. There's not many cashpoints that do £5s so will more than likely have to withdraw £500, hope that'll be okay. :o

    Glad I'm making sense to you as I sometimes wonder if I'm making sense to myself. My mind is all over the place at the moment, I'm so distracted - have to shake myself out of it!!

    Ange, thanks I hope its not too expensive too but tbh its been a long time coming. The ABS light always usually goes on and back off again for no apparent reason. But tonight there was a definite clonk and shudder which did not sound good at all (am pulling my mouth to one side as I type that bit).

    Dalip - that makes me feel better and less like I'm doing something I shouldn't.

    Right, am off to do the deed - wish me luck and that I haven't been 'cut off' yet! TTFN x x

    Good luck Skinty. And I know what you mean about not making sense - sometimes I feel like I'm speaking a foreign language!! :eek:

  • Its done. :o Car is in garage tomorrow. Be ironic that I spend a fortune getting it fixed and OR takes it off me (**be banished ye negative thoughts**) . . . . Sorry, little bit of woe is me creeping in there. Am nipping it in the bud as that isn't going to achieve anything.

    Now I've got the br fee sorted its less of a worry but it is weighing on my conscience somewhat. I can't help it. Feel guilty. Nevermind, its done now.

    Right, am off to get rid of some of this tension..... sure I've got some pear cider in the fridge x x

    Surely its a form of stealing, yes go BR but to use the creditors own money to do it is shameful.

    But if you are in debt any monies you use to file for bankruptcy falls into the same category really!!!!

    i really dont want to do this but i am such an all time low i dont care anymore. You posted on another post recently saying you allways put your foot in it but you do not do any real harm. You do girl,you do so much damage with your mouth(fingers). You look down that snotty nose of your because you are paying your debt back but we have decided to take "THE EASY WAY OUT".You have no idea what bc entails as you have never done it and will never do it, so why for gods sake do you still post all your unwanted comments here. This forum is for bc Ok you have problems We all do,BUT WE DO NOT TAKE THEM OUT ON OTHERS. I have tried to make allowances for you as others have done,for your homelife,which must be so hard,but can you not see YOU are your own worst enemy.Why do you not go where you belong on the DFW forum and not here. I am so sorry for saying this to another poster and believe me i am not a nasty person,but i just can not accept BH putting people down all the tiime.Dalip

    Well said Dalip, people that are facing BR are at their lowest ebb and do not need to read these sorts of flippant remarks.

  • I second Red - well said. As I wasn't sure how to respond myself (my mam has always taught me that if I don't have anything nice to say, say nothing), I chose to ignore the comment.

    Thank you dalip, Red and Shadowdragon :A x x
