    That is a great update. Good luck in working on your relationship and sorting out your debt.

    Have you addressed your spending problems? How did you get to £60k debt in the first place?
    The OP explains her spending issues:

    have built on being on own at weekends, its also an child hood thing where I had nothing but watched my sisters have everything, also lots of arguments at home where I would just go and shop, I think most people these days have debts but not this amount
    I said on the OP's other thread that I'm not sure if a compulsion like this can be cured very easily.
    Let's hope a happy marriage and not being left alone at the weekends can stop it.

    aww the lovely Pollycat, if only I had you as a close friend. Luckily I have sonny supportive friends to be there for me and I have some nice weekends planned already also exciting I have a holiday to look forward to with the husband and with the stress of past few weeks I've lost a stone so look even better than I did. Little steps forward but its progress.

    OP, why delete your original topic? If everyone did that after getting an answer then these forums, and forums like it wouldn't be full of useful information.

    Oh, I don't think anyone could get any useful information from anything the OP has posted.
    I suggest you take a look at the OP's other thread.
    How sad can he/she be?
