    Actually when I was told and because I had no recollection of said events, I ventured to my disembarkation point; the side of the road and there they were in side of road, 2 of my socks :D

    Bookie, when I started I was 24 grand in debt and am now 14989 in debt. I only started seriously a year ago really.

    Impossible is nothing as the advert says!

    You've done really well Buffy. :T And you are putting up with so much.
    And Lenny - you are amazing (money wise).
    Gemzie - you too.
    You are all obviously very strong people and I raise my hat to you all!

    Bookie, when I realised we might lose our house, I forced my dad to have his light bulb moment - it took a further 18 months for him to actually get it.

    Can I draw everyone's attention here please: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1735511

    Hiya, yes loads better thanks :) how're you?

    The kids are with me this weekend but we've been to a party for one of Natasha's friends this afternoon so they're both tired and (touch wood) settled in bed. :A
