Wow, that's made me giggle :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Hope you are ok today PG and don't get so annoyed with yourself as I reckon I'd feel the same way, even though I know there is absolutely nothing they could do. Knocking on the door, whilst not pleasant won't kill you. After all, if it did we'd all be dead already with the number of final demands we've had in the past.

We seemed to have lost a ] somewhere along the line which is why all these quotes have gone weird.
Anyway, :j the cheque. Enjoy the feeling of having won against one of my favourite Predators.

OH. WOW. PINOT. I've just read about your cheque! That is the best news ever, congratulations!! Please will you nip round and sprinkle some of your luck onto my diary
??!
Not so good about the dodgy-looking blokes, very strange. Have you had chance to ask any of your neighbours if they knew anything about it? I'd imagine they stuck out like a sore thumb to everyone in the street.
I agree that you need to keep a healthy emergency fund. It's easier to sleep at night when you know you have a fall-back if needed.LBM Dec 2011. Aimed, but failed, to clear all unsecured debt by Feb 2019. Finally free of unsecured debt 21st May 21!
Debt Dec 11: Unsecured £69,579 + Mortgage £59,948 = £129,527
Debt May 21: Unsecured ZERO! ZILCH! Mortgage £22,3320 -

I hope you saw your name mentioned on the very first page !!
These pesky babies, dont they know you are busy ? x
I know you had mentioned you were thinking about a diary, but as you didn't mention it again, I thought instead you had a full time job keeping up with mine:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.
Fabulous diary PG, still have so much to trawl through. I thought I was busy!!!
Fantastic news on the cheque:D. Damn it, why didn't I take PPI on anything:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

Glad all was ok and you guys are safe.. Must have been scary.
Nice of the postie to bring you a cheque!! X0 -
i am glad you are all safe too. what a weird thing to happen but if they were out there for ages they would have knacked if they were debt collectors, as they didnt get any dosh just sitting in their car. I think they were just trying to talk privately and are just weirdos.
