    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.

  • Afternoon Wannabe. Sorry I didn't get to post at the weekend, I was reading but managed to lock myself out of MSE on my phone somehow.
    Hope you are feeling so much better and on the mend. Hope everything comes together and you manage to sort the payments needed.
    Hope you're having a lovely day.

    Sounds good to be getting an early night, at one point you never seemed to sleep so that is a big positive.

    I'm taking the two bigger debts being investigated away from my list :o It isn't really my debt,
    nor is the new debt, Debt 1 or the court fine :cool: But these I have to continue paying for now.


    So this is where I stand. Hopefully will make at least some sort of payment to something tomorrow.
