    Well I think long interviews are good! So fingers crossed!

    How big is the car loan or shouldn't I ask?

    I am pretty frustrated as with the intial mortgage payment being double and due on the first I cant really start hammering down the debt until July:eek:

    However I am Amazoning like mad but not Ebaying as much as I should and I have applied for AQA so fingers crossed!

    Well he's been back and now gone off to work. He says it went really well and she's going to let him know by the end of the week. His sister is a supervisor there and referred him for the job so fingers crossed! x

    Shineyhappy.. the car loan isn't pretty... we're paying 24.1% over 4 yrs.. and will end up paying just short of 8k for a car worth just under 5k. :mad:

    fingers crossed for Ste's job too - sounds promising.

    Yay well done steve, I see a new job offer coming your way. Things are really starting to pull together for you guys now. Can you mentally fast forward a year and see how different your life will be then? Sar childminding, kids sleeping through, ste in a better paid job, debts all but gone. The future looks lovely for you guys and I can't think of a family who deserve it more.

    Well done.
