    Aww Bookie....(((hugs))). Been there too and it feels pretty much like rock bottom. Yet here I am, renting a lovely house and getting help with CT and HB - every cloud and all that.

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    Just been talking to the guy who is advising me on the bank loan. I really do have no alternative but to sell the house.
    I guess I'd better just bite the bullet and get on with it.
    Going to try and finish these accounts I'm doing and then phone some estate agents.
    Really feel that my life is over at this point in time and wish I was brave enough to down all my prescription. (don't worry - I really won't).
    Guess I'll bounce somehow.

    Oh Bookie, I really dont know what to say :(:grouphug:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    :grouphug: Bookie.. I know it seems awful to have to sell the house but if it's a solution and helps you to move on then try to see it as just that. You'll get there - you are getting there x

    Bookie why are they saying you have to sell the house? Will your income not cover your mortgage/loan?

    It is annoying Lou and yep I've said !!!!!! off Squizz and started talking about his oral fixation (he's a smoker) and his problem of being in love with his mother :rotfl:

    Sorry to hear that bookie. It's not the end of your life, there's another side and you will get there.

    Feel a bit better today Lou. Should be OK to go back to work tomorrow - at least it's nice and warm there ;)

    Bookie, look at it the other way hun. When you've moved and settled somewhere else, debt gone you'll be able to start living again :grouphug:

    And you will probably get help with rent etc...
    Will there be anything left in the pot once you have paid off the debt?
