    I'm fine thanks.

    I was wandered where you have got to, I haven't been on here to much nor have alot of people either, not sure why!! I've been trying to get rid of my bloody defaults.

    Christ 42 degrees, I bet you aren't far off melting.

    Fingers crossed, I'll be back Friday so I've got the weekend at home. Been working non stop since I got here Mon am, so have a half day tomorrow so I plan on doing a nice bit of sunbathing :D

    Did you send the default letter from that website that you posted? I saw that and it looked good - I think I will try when I get back. It's def worth a shot.

    I applied for the Lloyds TSB Airmiles Duo last night.. if nothing else it'll be a test of how much my credit has been "repaired" now I've dealt with as many of the issues with my files as I could.. probably should have waited until March though, damned itchy fingers!!

    ".. on this occasion, you have been unsuccessful .."

    Rats. Still, they have said I can appeal, so I'll be doing that over the weekend.

    Just tried for an Orange contract and declined. Clearly things aren't as great as the bank and Cap 1 might have registered. Really disappointed.
