    PA is usually quieter on the weekend ;) you know I'm a fan :p

    Agree with the others, a big step so no surprise you feel a bit uneasy.

    Remember only way is up now ;)

    It's only natural for you to feel a bit of an anti-climax after such a significant step. But a step forward nonetheless. Onwards and upwards. Good news bike is being fixed by someone who appreciates it :)

    Re bike maintaineance have a look on YouTube and look at the global mountain bike network they put some canny vids up re bike mainteance. I recently re set my front mech up, it kept not dropping onto the small chain ring. I saved myself a 15 quid payout for a bike mechanic tune up.

    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.

    Hi folks

    received word that my application for sequestration has been granted.
    Meeting with my IP / Trustee next week to finalise the necessary paperwork / arrangements...

    The next four years are going to be tough, four years of living strictly within my means.
    I will do this, I will get through this...

    So, this means you lot are stuck with me for a while :D
    I'll get the kettle on and make some more scones eh? ;)

    Thanks everyone for your help and support thus far, please, stick by and help me thru the next four years

    I finally got to the end of your amazing journey. I couldn't stop reading. Your diary had me smiling and chuckling on more than one occasion uncannyscot. :D. So glad it's been granted and you are able to move forward now. Hope your Lass is doing ok too.

    Just wanted to add my support along with all the other lovely people. Loving the baking and the cat rescuing stories :A. I have been looking into rescuing a dog after my boy had to be put to sleep at the end of May :(

    Having issues with our finances it's not really practical at the minute but I will never say never.

    I have subscribed and will be following your journey and look forward to more pics of your cakes etc.

    Coffee and a scone please :D
