    Nor would i my last employer were not understanding at all after 9-10 years i left as they were trying too manage me out the business or thats how it seemed.

    No training after long term sick, attendance plans not completed correctly etc, wages done incorrectly and not being amended when they made errors ie putting me on ssp when i had company sick pay left. I left the minute voluntary redundancies were offered with 10,000 in my pocket and walked into a security job doing nightshift

    its more hours 90 percent less stress.

    I return lol I have had a ruff couple of days but things are looking up, I was at a family funeral yesterday and I was expecting world war 3 too kick off but luckily it didn't.

    My 95 year old grand mother passed away, she has gone too the great RAF veteran cloud in the sky.


    It sounds crap this but on a positive note after mourning for the last week too ten days I am getting 1000 pounds inheritance.

    650 is going off debt 200 off the mortgage and the other money I am gunna treat me other half too a night away.

    Another couple of positives I now don't have too pay a local transport company 15 quid per month for a fine anymore. I was an idiot and travelled too work one day and forgot my wallet, I got a ticket and totally forgot about it. So this morning I am gunna speak with step change and up my debt management plan slightly.

    Overpaid a tenner on the mortgage today and and extra fiver into savings as opinium research paid the 25 I am owed. ��

    Well our financial situation sucks putting it bluntly at the moment my partner works as a teaching assistant in schools for kids with learning difficulties but she hasnt had any work for 2 weeks. She is paid weekly and the week before the kids broke up for easter she worked 1 day.

    Net result i have subsidised my other half the last 2-3 weeks and i have a fiver in the bank. Top cashback and opinion outpost my usual income top ups have dried up too nothing.

    Why couldn't Uktoluna pay faster

    Well thats me debt free at 42 lol i rejigged my dmp upto 234 pounds per month from 202. I have potentially a cash windfall coming but my dad was like a politician when i went for a drink with him yesterday.

    My gran mother passed away just before easter my dad said i have too meet him for a drink next usually we would just go out every 2 weeks. Hmmmmm i am intrigued gran spent the last 6-7 years of her life in a care home i am surprised she has any cash left.
