    How long ago was it you first got in touch with them - sorry too many posts to go looking back through. It can take a few weeks. Remember they are helping a lot of people with their debts now. You will get what you need fairly soon.

    Also nobody has posted yet who is older than me Not everyone has given their age. Maybe they are quite happy for you to carry that can lol

    Hi

    Thanks realise that but I am just feeling a bit sorry for myself today. I do apologise:o

    YM
    Please don't feel sorry for yourself! We're all here! I've just baked two yoghurt cakes (courtesy of arkonite_babe) - I can't stop making them, they're so easy. I'm sure I found the recipe on the old style recipe index. The thing is you make them with a carton of yoghurt then use the carton to measure out the rest of the ingredients: flour two cartons, sunflower oil one carton, sugar one-and-a-half cartons, sugar - whoops, already said that ! and three eggs. Mix together well then bake in oven - about gas 5/6 depending on what your oven is like (mine is temperamental - pms, I think), I usually do mine in small glass baking dishes - they're ready when a fork stuck in the middle comes out clean. Delicious and different every time because you can vary the flavour of the yoghurt. Today I've done one with rhubarb and one with raspberry and cranberry. They won't last long! Sorry if I've rambled!

    I am sure they are scrummy mioliere but that is an awful lot of oil and sugar to just two cartons of flour - can't be very good for the waistline

    Hi

    Not that long ago really. I suppose I was feeling a bit left out. You are right at the moment I am a bit static as regards my DMP and I agree there are more people who need help now. I will now put away my childish Head, and in the words if Worzel Gummidge , I will put on my grown up head on. Many thanks for the chat I have to go as Dinner and Kids from School time draws near.

    I once again apologise and will keep you all informed when things happen. If I can offer advice I will.

    Regards

    Hi

    Not really. Just a bit fed up as I have not heard from Payplan yet. Ie nothing through the post as regards paperwork. Nice to have the cheque today but I have now got stamps on the envolope's ready to send to creditors. If i am honest I am panicking a bit regarding their response. I know I am strong and I can handle it but there is a little nagging doubt. Also spent a night shift reading about the new powers Bailliff's may have in the future and I suppose I am just looking at the worst case scenario.

    Nothing really but it has been nice talking about what to do but now I have to send letters.

    Just being silly really as I know that everbody on here has gone through this,or is about too, and I know i can come back here for support.

    Also nobody has posted yet who is older than me:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Many thanks

    YM
    You haven't said how old you are - I'm probably older than you! I'm even older than my DH! I might even be the oldest MSE - now there's a thought! I supppose now I should say how old I am - I'm 54 (OMG, now it's in print!) but I feel about 24! They say you're as old as the man you feel - well, mine's 49!

    Any size pot - because all the other ingredients are based on the pot you use you can't get it wrong. Of course, if you were to use one of the big pots you'd need a big dish to bake it in! I usually use the one-serving size and I get a cake about - I'll just go and measure it with DH's B&Q tape measure - 10" x 5" that's about 2" deep. I really want a slice now but I'll have to let them cool first!
