    Does it really make that much difference mate? These are the figures as asked for on the forms so its niether here nor there really. I will put them in a list if it helps. Cheers

    FWIW - I printed the detailed msoc soa out and took it with for the OR interview, this is when it's most useful when they are going through it - even though the br forms are less details.

    Add in dry cleaning at £10. Put the breakdown cover in. Union fees. Do you have a subscription to TES? Or a professional paper/mag?

    The groceries and clothes a way to high. Be careful as the OR may go further into your accounts than you want.

  • BTDTSH has done you a really good and useful reply.:j

    Sorry if its already been covered elsewhere, but under assets you have nothing for the car. Whats its value?
    The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter :(

    Any further comments would be much appreciated folks. I am in court at 9.15 in the morning, starting to panic a bit now. Is there anything I need to know last minute? x
