best thing to do is post a statement of affairs but I've just seen your other thread and your idea to get another loan isn't the answer - as you've already seen.
Why are you on benefits? Any job will pay more than you are getting. I feel it's time to start realising you are in a real mess and think long and hard about how you are going to get out of it. Your other thread said you just thought they'd let you off the money.....
sorry this sounds harsh but I think sometimes a real wake up call is needed. You are not far from bankruptcy the way you are going and this will mess up your financial life for many years to come.
Is the catalogue list a total owed? Or £1000 each?

You need to get in touch with one of the charity debt management companies as soon as possible
Ring CCCS on 0800 138 1111 or www.cccs.co.uk
National Debtline on 0808 808 4000 or www.nationaldebtline.co.uk - you can click on 'Debt Remedy' on this site and enter al your details for suggested solutions without speaking to anyone
or contact your local Citizen Advice Bureau
Do not use a fee=based debt advice company
Good luck
