in Bankruptcy & living with it
Hi all, just to let you know made br this morning at liverpool, paid my money, signed the forms and waited for ages. The lady came out said the judge didn't want to see me and gave me my number.

Just waiting on the OR call now and see what happens.

For anyone nervous about going br and going to court don't be, were not criminals just people who have made wrong choices or had bad things happen to us. Don't feel scared or upset it's a fresh start for me and i hope you to.:j

    well done, the actual day if bankruptcy is somewhat an anticlimax but in a good way, you come out feeling like 'Was that it?'

    I have my or interview next friday but I'm not really dreading it, just have to go through my paperwork and answer as honestly as possible, says she, I bet its the worst hour of my life lol xx
