Thanks folks
Wish it was as easy getting a good deal on insurance...
I have stayed with current insurer (despite them being expensive), as I couldn't find any other decent insurer willing to let me pay monthly.
Due to my circumstances every one I tried wanted full payment. Current insurer was the only one that said "no problem" to a monthly DD. Admittedly it's first time in ages I've had car insurance and they were the only ones who accepted that I had any No Claims (as I had been with them previously) and granted a "discount" but £60 per month??? Hopefully, next year I'll be in a better position to find a better deal...BUGGRITMILLENIUMHANDANDSHRIMP I TOLD EM! - Foul Ole Ron
It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

Morning Folks
New day, fresh start an all that jazz...
Need to complete and return revised I&E to the trusty Trustee, looks like there will be no real change in what I have available for the DCO payment but will have to wait for their response...
This evening I shall be moving the brew onto second stage of fermentation and transferring from brew bucket to the fermentation barrels. It will brew in these for a further 12-14 days prior to bottling. The smell of the brew atm is asolutely gorgeous
Right, busy day ahead, must finish coffee and get to it.
Have a grand day folks will pop in an oot as time allows throughout the day.

Morning Uncanny,
Boo to the car insurance, that's a pain but at least it's sorted for a year now.
The homebrew sounds great, hope it tastes as good as it smells.
Have a lovely day x0 -
Delighted you managed to get the car situation sorted!2019 Aim: Save £10,000
Don't sacrifice what you want most for what you want now0 -
Glad all's well that ends well with the car. Shame about the insurance though. Home brew sounds great

Morning folks
Thanks everyone for input and support
I have another wee quandry...
As I am doing a bit o travelling for the company (with more in the pipeline...) my boss is considering giving me a company credit card to cover expenses, such as flights, accomodation, meals and other business travel expenses.
Boss knows that I am currently going thru Sequestration and that I was recently discharged with a further three years of DCO...
This will be, as I understand it, a business account operated by and for the company and I shall of course have to account for every spend made with receipts etc for everything each month. Which is not a problem, as it will only be used for work related expenses.
IF I am understanding things correctly, as I am discharged from my bankruptcy and therefore no longer under it's restrictions it is possible / OK for this to happen. My boss believes so and I may be worrying over nothing but thought I would put it oot among my good friends on here for discussion...
At the moment all my travel bookings are made by my boss and I am given "pocket money" cash to cover the other essential expenses. Boss thought it would be best now I am discharged to "have me on the company account"...
So, thoughts???BUGGRITMILLENIUMHANDANDSHRIMP I TOLD EM! - Foul Ole Ron

I think it is ok as I am sure someone else I know had a similar situation.
You could always check with your trustee.
