    :D Evening Dotty sorry haven't got up with your thread for what seems like ages.

    Well done on getting your stuff all sent off to CCCS. Should hopefully make things so much easier and less stressful for you.

    I am off on hols on Friday so if I don't catch up with you beforehand have a good couple of weeks. :D

    Yes hope so, be good to get into some kind of routine again - they have given us 11 years to pay everything off at that rate but have taken into account the minimum wage we both bring home (as we get paid on sales commissions too) so any extra we do earn will be put in a savings account to offer eiher overpayments or pay off debts in f & F one at a time - so wont be anywhere near 11 years - hoping to get that DFD right down :-)
