NSD for me, too much stress!

    He got £300 less than he asked for, but was please with what they offered. As he wont tell me how much he got I'm not sure. I would guess a large amount as he is talking about getting a new fridge freezer, moving into a new flat and putting some in savings!!!

    He know's I owe money, but we haven't gone into figures, but he was telling me about it last night and said 'I'd opened a new bank account like that bloke on the net suggests' I thought... I know that bloke ;)

    Hi SK - Today I have spent 40p on parking and £1.60 on a Cappucino, whilst my wife was in ASDA (normal budgeted shopping).
    I'm no longer allowed to push the trolley around ASDA or TESCO because there is someone who follows me around, slipping bars of 'Value' Milk Chocolate into the trolley - which we only discover at the checkout, by which time it is too late to put them back.:rolleyes:
    I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
    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.
