    Been reading through this thread and spotted southernuscuisine and Mrs Sparkle's debt footnote on your posts. Just wondering how on earth are you two managing to tick over with your debt.

    Hello Mark_Ice :)

    I don't know about SS and Mrs Sparkle but personally, it helped to realise I am a lot more than just a person in debt. There is life during and after debt and a lot worse things can happen than owe money ;)

    Being here helps a lot too as we do have a laugh and we support each other so much :)
    Leason learnt :beer:
  • well done on starting this thread Broken Hearted - I hope it lets people know out there that there is somewhere they can go for advice without judgement. A big welcome to malvena too - good luck with your debt free journey :)

  • Thank everyone.

    I just want to say its my birthday today and it is the best one for years. I can see that there is definately light at the end of the (long long) tunnel.

    Mind you I think i'm gonna avoid the old stylers, they have been messing with my head. Currently sitting here with a face full of milk of magnesia(good for the skin apparently) and gagging to buy Stardrops. Rock and roll.:cool:

    Will promise to put on the SOA as soon as its finished.
