Child guitar lessons - £30.00

I can't help with much (apart from the food bill looks extortionate!!!)

But with regards to guitar lessons, how long has your son been playing? As you have internet access he could get all his tabs off the net. He could also use powertab which is a free programme and very helpful for beginners. ultimate-guitar.com and mx-tabs.net are also really useful. You'll also find a lot of the best guitarists - Slash, Bradders, Clapton, Weller - were all self taught! :beer:

thanks for that Tristesse, will look at that on the internet, sounds interesting.

Hubby is really pleased with all you guys, it feels like we're no alone.

Does anyone have or had a similiar debt ? We are so determind now, once a month i want to update, and also advise of any good changes.

As we speak, hubby is taking photos of all the things we want to put on Ebay tonight.

Thanks

Just wanted to say well done for taking control - with your commission and some budgeting you'll have the debt down and a more secure future for you and your kids.

Good luck!

Re your rented TV. Have you had it long? Try calling the rental company to cancel it if you've had it a while. When I did this they called me back a couple of days later and offered to let me keep the TV, Video & portable TV for a one off payment of £30!!! Basically it was going to cost them more to collect it from me than they could make from it as it was on old'ish model.

Worth a try, Good Luck with all your efforts

Hi
If you feel guilty about stopping the charity donation, have a look at https://www.pigsback.com. The points you earn from click throughs etc can be exchanged for a charity donation voucher. I've thought about this as we have a charity linked pet insurance that is quite expensive. Making a donation this way seemed a good compromise.
