    Went to see my GP today, which was somewhat inconclusive. We had a chat about stress etc. (apparently my blood pressure is high for a young person) and I'm being sent to my local hospital for some blood tests on Wednesday. Not particularly worried, I'd just like to make sure that I don't have anything specifically wrong with me after my recent 'turns' ;)

    Thanks beanielou - it was fine and I'm lucky enough to have a follow-up appointment to discuss the results with my GP on Friday. So I'll get paid and hopefully a clean bill of health on the same day :)

    I will be posting a full and final settlement offer at lunchtime for my last debt - it's a somewhat low figure, but hopefully my DCA feels like haggling! Who knows, I could be debt free in a week....
