    About the cancer, there are some quite credible alternative viewpoints that cancer is actually a nutritional deficiency. And can be treated by consuming vitamin B17, which is found in Apricot Kernels.

    Do a search for Edward Griffin's film "world without cancer" on google video and make up your own mind.

    Good luck.

    This guy Philip Day also has some good info,
    and his material is slightly less dated.

    That man sounds like a charlatan.

    There is litttle or no evidence to support his claims and proper double-blind scientific trials have never been carried out into the effects of apricot kernels.

    In fact the so-called active ingredient B17 is banned in a lot of countries.

    That's interesting. Although both points are covered at length in the video.

    The debate at scienceforums seems far from conclusive.

    Even if the B17 "magic bullet" isn't true, I've heard of plenty
    of "miracle" cases over the years where people changed their diet and
    then suddenly the cancer went into remission.

    If I had cancer I would want all the information I could get.

    did you read it?


    i went bancrupt in april this year, i am now discharged

    thats 3 months ...less even

    12 months is the maximum, not many get that far. In some cases as with the OP, there had obviously been extensive and timely discussions and investigation before the actual court order took place.

    Therefore no real reason for the Official Receiver to investigate further or drag it all out unnecessarily. After all, most of the courts are snowed under at the moment.

    A good friend of mine just filed at Brighton, they have a 4 month backlog and are processing 50 bankruptcies a week, He got a date in September.

    Probably shouldn't even be buying a house at this time or you might just find yourself back in bankruptcy proceedings :rolleyes:

    What is it with you people ?

    thanks for your comments and i will tell what it IS with us people - its that just because we are bankcrupt people seem to think they can talk to you however they like. if you have nothing nice or productive to say then say nothing - thats basic manners.

    i dont have to defend myself but most of us who are in this situation arent proud of it but have probably struggled for years to pay debts off or just put food on the table. please dont think im being dramatic with that, walk a mile in their shoes before you judge and count your own blessing because you just dont know what is around the corner

    what is so wrong with me now wanting to start again???
    not all of us are in this situation cos we like to spend money we dont have.

    If I had cancer I'd want to take drugs that had been properly tested in double blind studies.

    This is interesting, there's obviously a stigma attached to bankruptcy, this is somewhat archaic in this day and age, I imagine you must think Sir Alan Sugar is a right sponger, He's been bankrupt twice.:confused:
