Hello everyone,
I posted a thread a few months ago about my Debt Free Direct IVA and the awful predicament i was in due to my mum been seriously ill.
Well i just wanted to update my situation.
At 12.22pm on wednesday 7/11/07 we were declared bankrupt!!!!
I cried for half an hour with sheer emotional relief after a terrible year. After loosing my mam in August and living in a place i hated, here we are in rented accomodation with my two boys and a fresh beginning!
I can not tell you the relaese of life i feel.
For those of you who read this who remember and advised me at the time, my deepest thanks to you all!
