    Hi hun!! Things have been a nightmare here! I've discovered last night and being suspicious for a while, that OH's depression stems from a gambling addiction. His big bad boss isn't quite so bad after all. OH has told me a lot of lies. I'm not sure how things will end up. He is resigned to the settee at the mo. He needs to do a lot to prove he wants to be part of the family.

    Financially he has left me in dire straits BUT lady luck has shone down. A cheque arrived yesterday for his PPI. OH's given it all to me (i've done all the work for it!). I'm disappointed as he is not working now so i will have to use some for general living but will use a little for debt too. It gives me a bit of breathing space for a while.

    On the completely up side. My baby is growing well. He is a busy bee who kicks me most of the day and night! I think he may have ADHD :p Pregnancy always makes me feel chilled out which has been a life saver this last few weeks. I'm very excited about the arrival of my little boy. No.1 son has been affected by what OH has done but has been a star. So i have so much to fight for and be grateful for :smileyhea

    Thats great news macgirl!! Now all of your extra payments will actually be going towards the debt rather than horrid interest!
    Im slightly jealous as the HSBC debt OH and i have is in his name and he has appauling cradit rating so no chance of getting a balance transfer - the interest rate is 27% i think grrr!!
