    Rachelsmum10 BR on 15 Feb 2012

    After nearly 18 months of indecision and uncertainty, we have finally done it. I thought I would feel elated once it was over, but instead just have a very flat, down feeling???? Whats that all about. I will need to allow myself a little bit of time I guess to 'grieve' about this, but then I'll be giving myself a kick up the bottom to get on with it! We have OR interview next week Friday, so we are all fully prepared for that and have our paperwork in order, so it shouldn't be too bad. Our outgoings are just about the same as our incomings so I am worried that they will make us cut back on certain things so that they are able to at least get some money from us in the form of an IPO. It will make our budget even tighter than it is now :((. Will post week after next once we know the outcome.

    Hi Rachelsmum10 and Welcome to the Feb BR Club :beer:
    Dojoman will add your name to the front page.

    Take your time we all react differently, there is no right or wrong way. Once you have spoken to your OR hopefully it will bring more closure ;)

    Best wishes

    Hi everyone, welcome to the February 2012
    Bankruptcy Club.

    This club is for everyone who has gone or going through the process of Bankruptcy during February 2012. So please feel free to join and post.

    Pop your name on here, the date that you went Bankrupt and the stage that you are at now in your Bankruptcy. And then just keep everyone in the club updated throughout the next year about your journey through Bankruptcy. That way we can all stick together and compare notes and we will be there to support each other throughout the different stages in our Bankruptcy.

    Remember this is your board so keep posting.

    Obviously anyone can come on here and post anything that will help us all and you are all welcome. Any important questions that do need answering are maybe still better posted on the main board but if you do put it on here, then maybe we can help each other.

    Hopefully it will be an extra place for friendship and support as we compare notes and discuss what is happening with our Bankruptcies.

    Please leave a post when you have been declared BR, and I will update the list.

    *PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE TOO MUCH INFO, THE IS ARE KNOWN TO FREQUENT THIS SITE AND TOO MUCH INFO MAY MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO IDENTIFY INDIVIDUAL CASES, SO KEEP INFO TO A MINIMUM, ie USERNAME AND DATE ONLY."

    Hi All,

    I'm going BR on Monday and can't wait. I'm not bothered about going to Court and i'm not bothered about the OR interview as from what i have read on this forum there is nothing to worry about.

    I have had an awful time over the last 10 months and i'm looking forward to putting the past behind me and moving onwards and upwards.

    So hopefully by Midday on Monday i will be free from my Debts.

    This February will be one to remember, Birthday on 12th, Valentines Day on 14th, Bankrupt on 20th, and our 27th Wedding Anniversary on 22nd.

    Now I do feel happy (even though the journey's just begun really), with the interview done I feel more confident to take on what's to come and change the entire way I deal with my finances.

    I want to thank this fantastic forum again for the advice, support, humour and common sense that is generously given out - there is no way I would have got this far without you all, you're all :A :A :A :A:A :A xxxxxxx

    (.........sounds like an Oscar acceptance doesn't it??!!)

    Aww, wishing you all the best Flo, your year will fly by! You come across as such a nice, caring person xx
  • Thanks Angie xxx - your story really took my breath away, I don't know where you got the strength from to get through it but I can understand how this forum helped :)

    I hope you keep posting.

    With love to you xxxx
