    Good morning everyone :)

    Well just checked my Virgin account and they have approved my Credit Increase :j so once these loan documents arrive (today hopefully) I will get them in the post ready to get than loan to pay off the cards and do that final transfer to the one card.

    I must then make sure that I cancel the other cards properly so they are removed from my credit rating.

    It will be so lovely to have one simple loan payment and one card payment a month, especially with a 0% interest on it for over a year! :beer:

    Things are slowly coming together! xxx

    Once everything goes through, I will be able to do a proper budget and work out how much I will be able to pay towards my debts and hopefully have a rough idea of when I will be able to finally become debt free!

    Will be a bit of a while off, but still nice to know! xxx

    Finally, one bid and an extra watcher (which may be the bidder I suppose!). They also only have 15 feedback over the space of years and years so really hope he will cough up asap if he wins!

    Really would like the price to go up as the winning bidder is gonna get themselves a cracking deal, at my stupidity! xxx

    Sorry to hear about everything else though, but you are a strong woman so i expect that bigger and better plans are out there for you.:D x

    Hello BOB! Great to hear from you and really hope all is well with you :)

    Can't believe that after soooo long I still haven't made proper headway with this debt but jeez any lightbulb moment before was a flicker compared to this one I can tell you! Especially now handling everything on my own. I need time alone to focus on myself and taking care of Emily and however much I loved my ex, he wasn't the one for me as never put in what I did and I have learnt that that really isn't fair :(

    Well still no loan paperwork in the post so hope it will turn up tomorrow.

    Will be booking the car in for it's MOT next week to get that out of the way and see about the service too. Expensive I know but gotta be done!

    Really hoping for those tickets to go up a little higher than the £40 starting bid, fingers and toes crossed!

    Nighty night xxx

    Well done for looking at being single in such a positive light. Good luck with cracking on with your debts. It is always a plus when the younger people in your life understand about cut backs.

    Can we pls have a piccy of your cat. I am missing having a pet at the moment....
