    I have my BR date as the 27th May, excited and nervous at the same time. No matter how much reading is done on this forum, there is always a worry there that something will not go as expected.

    Just remember to put your pants on before leaving the house and everything will go fine ;)

    Hiya Mykidsrcool (love your username) and welcome to May's BR Club, I have added your name to post 1 :beer:
    You will be alright (honest) as long as you have sought advice and do let us know how you get on.

    Best wishes

    Thanks ifwisheswerehorses, and took me a while to think of a worthy username.

    I have sought advise from multiple charities, Stepchange, Payplan, CAB, CAP to name a couple. I feel confident in my SOA and it certainly helps having these forums to look through and know that i am not alone and my situation is not unique. It can be hard to work out the SOA when your children are only with you every other weekend and holidays.

    It is right that I should be feeling excited that (if all goes well) I will be declared bankrupt in less than 2 weeks?

    If thats how you feel, good for you (it's nothing to be ashamed of, no longer struggling to make ends meet is something worth looking forward too!) :) I was pretty nervous leading up to the event which turned out to be such an anti-climax :D

    Stay happy and heres to a brighter future :)

    :staradmin Hi Everyone and Welcome to the May’s 2014 Bankruptcy Club :staradmin


    This club is for everyone who has gone or going through the process of Bankruptcy during May 2014. So please feel free to join and post.

    Pop your name on here, the date that you went/are going Bankrupt. Then just keep everyone in the club updated throughout the next year about your BR journey. That way you can all stick together, compare notes and be there to support each other during the different stages of your Bankruptcies.
    Remember this is your board so keep posting :hello:

    Obviously anyone can come on here and post anything that will help and you are all welcome. Any important questions that need answering please still post them on the main board, as you will receive more advice and help.
