  • Huge Congratulations! :j

    It was reading your inspiring threads - along with others - on here that encouraged me to join MSE earlier this year and plough headlong into my debt. So thank you for that, and I hope you don't disappear totally!

    I'm so sorry to read about the trauma you had to go through to get this, but I do hope that the compensation really benefits you and your family

    Have a very Merry Christmas and a stonking 2008! :T

    Weller that is absolutely the best news I've heard in a long time. Money is never enough compensation and not as good as a 'sorry' but I'm so glad that you won't have the debt (and soon the mortgage) hanging over you. Here's to a fabulous 2008 :T

    Weller, I'm so pleased to hear your news - it couldn't happen to a nicer or more deserving person :j :T

    Like some of the other posters, I'm sat here with tears in my eyes thinking about what you went through. The money won't make up for the lack of an apology, but just try to put it all behind you and enjoy spending it.

    I'm not sure champainge will go too well with Baileys, best drink em separately I reckon

    I'm off to have a Baileys in your honour right now hun, cheers and have a fantastic Christmas :beer:

    By the way, dont even think about leaving us ;) :rolleyes:

    I'm really chuffed for you Weller. What a fantastic Christmas present, even though the reasons behind it are rather sad.

  • Glad you finally have some closure to your horrific experience. Hope it gives you the chance of a new start for your family and allows you to put the bad times behind you for good.

    Take care
