Morning everyone! :wave:

[Deleted User] - I know what you mean. Mine died on me 2 years ago, I was at the height of the divorce shenaningans and the kids' father wouldn't pay a penny towards it, even though he was jointly responsible for the property. I had a blooming good cry too. I didn't have an EF then, but I was lucky enough to have parents who could help me with the lump sum, which I paid off over six months. I learnt from that, and this thread is great for keeping me on track!

Speaking of cars... my new one is still in the garage, and the Bluetooth thingy has completely foxed them! Vauxhall main office are telling the dealers it's nothing to do with the vehicle, it must be the six phones that we've tried on it that are faulty:rotfl:Fortunately I have a courtesy car, so am not completely stranded. Just imagine, once that's sorted, I'll only have final court stuff and mortgage to tie up, plus applying for a new job (yes, the axe is falling...). When that's all done, what on earth will I have to worry about?!! :rotfl:

Thank you Duran Girl, Carboot, crazy_cat and Helen it looks like my share of Boiler-gate cost is going to be around the £500 mark which whilst still painful still leaves me with a reasonably healthy looking EF :T I've got some extra hours at my 2nd job this weekend so will use the money to start building up the fund again xx

Making modest contributions to my EF. It now stands at £41.09, an increase of just over £13. I hope to add another bit to it when I get my expenses paid in a couple of weeks.

Morning Everyone....I'm sorry I didn't Update yesterday....I was feeling VERY sick and dizzy last night.....I think my Body is still getting used to my Diabetes Tablets....So I went to bed and had a good Sleep and I'm feeling a bit better this morning....


Although...embarrassingly, I have a rather large and nasty abcess on my behind!! I used to get abcesses a lot but haven't had one for a while....I'm hoping that once I start taking Antibiotics (which I will start today) that it will go down....fingers crossed!!


On the plus side, I added another Fiver to my Emergency Fund yesterday so I'm really pleased with that

DuranGirl - Hope the Car gets sorted hun.....


skye blue - I've Updated the First Page, can I just confirm that your new Total is now £67.50?? You're doing brilliantly...

Morning everyone!

Hope you're all well . I've added another £7.50 to my 3-6 month fund, taking me up to £85. I know it's not a lot but I'll get there.

Also "treated" myself to some vitamins because I'm sick of feeling zapped of energy all the time.

They're my treat of the week haha!

Morning LittleMissDetermined ... I hope you are well this morning You're doing brilliantly and I have Updated the First Page with your Total so far.....We all go at this at our own Pace....I'm nowhere near where you are....but we have to do what we can when we can because I always think if I put more money in there than I can afford then I will only have to take it back out again...


Keep it going hun.....You're AWESOME!! xXx
