Need to share some UNEXPECTED news.

I have just got home, after a week at work, to a letter from the OR. With all the current hassle regarding my BI in the house, I very nervously opened it to find:


NOTICE TO BANKRUPT ENCLOSING A SEALED COPY OF THE EARLY DISCHARGE NOTICE



I have been discharged from Bankruptcy !



It's going to take some time to sink in as it was totally unexpected - the last time I checked, on the Insolvency Service Website, it said 'Automatic Discharge 26.10.07.

I now have a sealed copy of an early discharge - granted by the Court on 23.04.07.

I think I need a drink. :beer:

If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.
