Hello from a Scottish sequestratee!

Hello everyone

I just wanted to introduce myself.

I'm currently waiting for my sequestration (the same as bankruptcy in England) to go through the sheriff court (have been waiting since the end of June!), so I'll soon be a fellow bankrupt!

I have to say that it's a relief not to have to worry about paying my many creditors any more, although it's a bit sad that it had to come to this, especially since I'm only 26!

    Welcome. :)

    For some reason we don't get that many people from Scotland posting on this forum, which leaves us all a bit stumped when someone does.:o

    If you can add your experiences to those of everyone else here then that would be great.:D

    The law may be different, but the emotional rollercoaster aspect of BR will be much the same.
