    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

  • hi ya well i know i haven't posted in a while this is whats going on...
    OK the loan i got out was supposed to of finished in October just gone, there is £800 left to pay they have extended it to a further 9 months at £70 a month OK I need help should I add £100 extra to clear it faster as she will be sending me £70 still a month, I shall be seeking C.A.B help and courts again for more written conformation. my bank is in a better state now finally I have money in there I'm not in arrears and I actually have money even after Christmas. this is mainly because I got most of my shopping a couple of months before Christmas, so also my crisis loan will be finished 31st January 07 that is an extra £26 in my account I don't really have to pay out much to any think as I don't go out much, and also I don't shop for clothes yet as I am not at my goal weight I am looking in to reducing our monthly food bill still searching for recipes, now the vouchers i get from baby for milk they now provide fruit and vegetables also so this helps me with the weight issue I have 43lbs to lose. and when I get there I will shop sensibly for clothes i actually need and that suit my body shape also colours that suit me *lucky for me I have almost every Trinny & Susanna books* plus I used to work in fashion so I have an idea. anyway for the main reason of this post is should I add an extra £100 on top of the £70 pm loan repayment to clear it faster? will it make a difference to my credit rating e.g make it a lot better ? :o any reply's are very welcome thank you and hope you all had a happy Christmas
