    Looking like he might get in, fair bit of brown nosing going on :(

    not really, I think it's more a case of showing appreciation. I know that before I found this site I was going nowhere fast and thought that I would end up with bailiffs on the door, because there was no other way out. I was robbing peter to pay paul every month and it was only a matter of time before I ran out of credit. I thought that everyone in my situation ended up in court but thanks to Martins efforts in running this site I got invaluable advice that I wouldn't have gotten anywhere else and now I've got things sorted.
