SOA advice please;

1st attempt at the soa on here so any alterations would be greatly appreciated.
i have already been on the DMP for 3 years now,sick of the calls for reviews every few months, very tiring & i'll be 100 years old on completion.... maybe have a life then!! lol
Had a mortgage before the plan started & the IVA which was proposed at the time crippled me, must admit CAB's allowances on food etc £180.00 for 2 adults didn't make me smile much.
My OH has a part time job so only contributes a little if any most times, again i'm considering other avenues ie BR... any advice would be most welcome......
