    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    *sticks out bottom lip*


    *crosses arms*



    Morning all :wave:

    A completion of the MT faffathon :j :j :j

    I think, Doc, I will tentatively declare on 11? 12? (in the style of the fabulous ym) Shoddy effort, I know. Out and about this afternoon and who knows what the weekend will bring. I may sneak another one in on Sunday, but its far too early to tell. Thank you SO much for scoring. You have been utterly fantastic and motivatonal. If Mr McFaffy isn't looking, I venture a :kisses3: in your direction. You've kept everyone's spirits up (not THOSE spirits :p) and entertained throughout


    Well done, Doc!!

    Hope everyone is well and well done shaggy on getting the right day!!! :rotfl: :rotfl:

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D

    Have absolutely no time to post, v. late for work.

    HB, I rung baliff yesterday morning during the alloted 30mins out of 24 hours and he didn't answer *rolleyes*. I left a message to say that I will try again today. If I can't get him then I'll ring the court direct and ask what to do. Thanks for asking :)

    I'm not letting it get me down, I've got an interview to prepare for :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Gotta run :wave:

    The habit of drinking is really broken for me now. So much in fact that it doesn't enter my head in the evenings.

    I think I have reached this place too. Yesterday I got paid and have paid what I hope is my second-to-last installment on my cc. Next month I will be debt free (hopefully). If I am debt free and AF(ish) I'll feel like I'm living someone else's life:rotfl:

    Viva MSE - it is life changing, isn't it?
