Woo hoo! OH has got a commercial!

Hi All
My actor OH has got a commercial - his first one! He will be filming this week. What a great Christmas present! He will be able to pay off the one bad debt that he has - what a relief! It's not very large compared to some of mine but it is the only one that could have ended up in court (it is one that we hoped had been written off but we only found out recently that it hasn't!!). He will also have money left over from that to put towards the tax bill that is likely to land on the door mat sometime soon (don't ask!) and still have some spare so that we don't starve!!
needless to say, much joy in the PigginSkint household at the moment!!:j :j :j

Well done ps - let us know what the commercial is and when it's being shown so we can boost the viewing numbers. :beer:I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.
