    Morning and all the best today to Zandytobedebtfree, iquit, Poorprincess and anyone else not on the list going BR today

    ym
  • Good luck to everyone today, only 10 days to go for me...... eeeee

    xx
  • Good luck to everyone going into court today :D
  • Thanks to all who sent their good luck wishes, I was officially declared BR at 10:18am today and felt that weight lifting from my shoulders.

    To anyone who's not been there yet, it was relatively painless and the court staff were so kind, understanding and helpful and really not judgemental at all, which was a real relief as I do feel somewhat of a failure having ended up at this place.

    Now just waiting for the OR to be in touch, which I was told could be a 'couple of weeks'! I hope not but will keep you posted.

    Thanks again
    We are all still learning every day

    Well done PP - hope you don't have to wait too long to hear from the OR! Do you know which OR you will be getting?

    Don't ignore a problem. Unlike a bad smell, it won't eventually go away.

    Hi to all in the April Club, and those who are not.

    First post :eek:, so be gentle! :D (This is more daunting than going BR)
    Im not going BR in April, but my forms have been filled in and May 5th is my date, been keeping tabs on the forum and must say you guys are ALL brilliant :T its helped me a lot getting through this year, its been a long wait to get this far, and now the days seem to be flying by.

    Just waiting now for the May club to start, then I can officially join in :D

    Cheers Dibs :cool:
