    A 'just dropping off the front page' bump ;)
    I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    Ooo yummy. I had a meeting and all I got was bad news. I think it should be a prerequisite of any future meeting I attend that there are homemade chocolatey nutty gooey just out of the oven biscuits available (to take the taste of the bad news away:rolleyes: ).

    No, honestly - I had a bit too much of the 'something else' last night and was a bit 'fragile' this morning. _pale_ _pale_

    However - I do have a few cans in the fridge for this evening as I'm not working (God I hope I'm not tempting fate - the phone will probably ring in the next few minutes to ask me if I can cover this evening :eek: ).
