hi weymuffred (only just worked out your name - weymouth fred, :cool: - thats dyslexia for you, i'm not stupid, just walk to a different beat...)


anyway i did a thorough look at your SOA on the old thread before it got trlled out and would be happy to do it again, since i think (can't promise) i came up with savings that others haven't - i had some tome on my hands i guess...

anyhow i'm now a bit busier, (back at work even if 1 handed - now i really sympathise with the physically disabled - can't even dress myself atm!) but would be happy to redo it but only if you would like it, let me know. i'm an accountant and a good part of my job is picking holes in budgets!

i'll treat what you save as the 'hole truff' as i used to spell it, and ignore the pointless dla discussion!

When you have got some free time then that would be rally appreciated. what I have stated on my SOA is the hole truth and nothing but the truth.

Weymuff, you should have just said that, we would all have understood, and not pressed you further.

Its a lot of money from them to recieve, so if you have not thought about it before, see if they want to set up a savings account for some of it perhaps?

Just as a note, can you reduce the pocket money in anyway? Im sure if the kids knew you needed to rein in the spending they would understand possibly?

I think you are being overly sesitive Weymufffred (my grandfather lives there you know!)

Anyway, people arent trying to cause you hassle, I was not nor others, we are all just wanting to know, what amount you get from DLA, what are the issues surrounding it, to see if we can help you. We are all here for support. People are frustrated that you will not answer, even though we are trying to help you. Thats just my view on it. I have seen some people get upset by comments, because they are asked personal questions which they were not expecting, but to sort this debt out every aspect of your spending and income need to be taken to pieces and put back together again. Everyone on here posting a SOA will get exactly the same questions, see the hole and try to help fix them!

We ARE here to help, honestly.

The amount I get is the amount I have put.
There are 3 posters (anthillmob, bugbabe) who are just not nice and will not be missed.
I know that everyone else is only posting so they can help me and my family out of our current debt, and as I have done already but will do again is say thanks.

I said it in my first post with the soa.

We are all here to help, even if you dont feel like you have had much support.

So, how about starting a spending diary? That way you know where the odd £10 here and there goes...I just started mind and its an eye opener!

We have started to do that as it is as you say an eye opener seeing where you do spend money.

i haven't read it (getting it for christmas!) but i suggest getting martin's new book 'thrifty ways for modern days' from the library or amazon, play.com etc.

and the money diet, that's an excellent book and although i love this website i found it easier to read a book (in the bath lol!) than reading onscreen.

I think they just felt misled and it isn't fair to signal people out.

It isnt fair to be abused either some of the posts by them are horrid,and I dont understand how they can feel misled. Now again I dont want this thread turning the way it did before so can people just come and help me or stay away!!
