I've done it.....

Hi guys, well I contacted cccs this afternoon and got through within 3 minutes! My heart was beating so fast I thought I was gonna have a coronary! :eek:

But, she was really lovely and put me at ease within a few seconds. I have my official appointment on Friday the 18th August at 1015am.

Feel so much better already but obviously nervous about the future involving things like my credit score, wanting a mortgage etc....

But this is where I've found myself at this stage in my life and hey, it won't be forever...
