    LOL his missus i fully understand the kitten getting in the way - they are just too cute not to play with all the time :)

    Hope you enjoyed your tea out too :)

    I ran out of my tablets yesterday so head is all swimming around this morning :( have to wait until 3 to get my script so not likely to get a lot done today - will try to do a few bits that don't require too much moving around!

    Are you up to date with your payments? if so they will not even consider it! If not up to date then the first step is to contact them with details of your income and outgoings and ask for the interest to be frozen, or consider going through stepchange debt charity with your income and outgoings details and they will get the interest frozen on all your debts :D

    My debts have had interest frozen for about 4 years and i was paying £50 per month off 12 different debts so they were getting very little. I was in a strong position to make the settlement as i am not able to work and not likely to be able to again, and the debts were at a level it would take me many many years to clear them - think it was 34 years at one point :o:eek:

    Yes I think getting the interest frozen would really help, 3 have wrecked my credit rating again and now my option of a balance transfer for some of the smaller debts I wanted to consolodate has been removed so I feel like all the good work I have done recently has just been erased! I might have to visit the citizens advice beaureu for some help on where I stand with 3.
    But i will call B card and see what they think about freezing interest, I can send them info on my income/expenditure :)

    I MUST get things done tonight. Still haven't posted that mail from over a week ago! Kitchen looks like a bomb has dropped in it ( I leave Hubby home alone for one night...I'd even made a meal fro him, he just had to reheat it!) and there's paperwork strewn all over the lounge. But kitty is sooooo cute! hee hee!

    Can I join in this challenge?

    I have two lofty challenges to accomplish.

    1. I'd like to go from unemployed to self-employed.

    2. Win the heart of my wife back :-(

    6 months should be enough time to accomplish at least one of these :-)
