Hi Scarlett,
It was a very enjoyable break, and even civil war amongst the two remaining "sprogs" left at home hasn't taken the edge off it.
I was desperate to avoid a BRU/O so I really do know how you feel, but in the overall scheme of things I don't think it makes that much difference. We've cleaned up our credit files, and applied for a credit card, and been turned down, but applied for a mortgage and were accepted. It's a very confusing world at the moment.
We used our pre-paid MasterCard to hire a car abroad, and really, we don't need credit for anything else. I felt vulnerable being abroad without a credit card but the gold ingots we hung on to were some reassurance ;-)
The one thing that I find hard to accept is that the I.S staff are monitored on the number of IPA/O's and BRU/O's they impose, and that just seems perverse to me.

I did not know that....... good grief

I'm the sort of person though, that I don't seem to think life is 'normal' unless I've got something to worry about
Look as long as you dont mention the loan shark that gave you quarter of a million for your OH to play in that big game, you know the one, the guy you had to hit over the head with a spade and bury under the patio to shut him up, you will be fineThats it, i am done, Blind-as-a-Bat has left the forum, for good this time, there is no way I can recover this account, as the password was random, and not recorded, and the email used no longer exits, nor can be recovered to recover the account, goodbye all ………….0 -

Think you might have to get permission to have them there."Well, that sounds like a pretty good deal. But I think I got a better one. How about I give you the finger, and you give me my phone call"
