Hi all
It's been a while since I updated and my debt has gone up:o. I'm #97 and my target was £5608 but my debt increased overall to £7438. So I've paid off a bit more and my totals are now sitting at #97- £4463/£7438 (60%). I'm still aiming to be debt free by the end of the year:D0 -

I haven't heard anything about mine, but the last letter I got said that they have some policy where they pay the funds within 5 days of maturing? I'm happy to get them in a week, I just don't actually know when they will turn up!Became Mrs Scotland 16.01.16Became homeowners 26.02.16

Way to go Jemma - you handled that situation with your boss sooo well. You give so much to everyone! You deserve to get oodles of support back - Hugs :kisses:'You've got to tell your money what to do or it will leave!' Dave Ramsey0

Jemma - really impressed with how you handled the situation with your boss :j:j. Now he knows the situation, hopefully you will not be faced with this kind of issue again. As I've said before, I used to get panic attacks, and so did my DH. Mine stopped after a few years and were more to do with a feeling that I couldn't cope when I first had children. As they got older and they survived (!), my confidence grew and the panic attacks went.
My DH had them in crowded situations, like shopping centres, public transport etc. He now has them under control and he did this the way you are going to - by facing the situations when he felt he could. For example at first he travelled (to work) on trains which weren't crowded (and got off if too many people got on :eek:) but he gradually got used to it and now he's fine even when the train is rammed with people.
Best of luck.
PS I bet Jake's Mum has a shovel she can lend you to get rid of the horrible person in your brain. She's certainly lent out heavy pans to people before now!
