Sorry to hear about your gran. Tell her I wish her well and hope they find what is wrong so that they can at least treat her. Nothing worse than having something which they don't know what it is.
:j at you losing more weight while I have been away. Honestly I did not check here when I guessed why you wanted to go to town Friday. I have to say even though the credit card has the higher interest and is in that sense logically is better to pay off first, I can totally understand you doing HFC instead. The psychological reward of finally not having to deal with them any more is well worth doing it now rather than later. So go you....cannot wait for Friday just for that moment. I sense a celebration! :beer:0 -

Why am I not surprised? It's been obvious that you want HFC gone.
And that's progress. Good cause for celebration!
One nice thing about the work you've done already: you aren't on the edge any more, so you do have flexibility to do what you like about repayment order.0 -

Haha
I can start to relax a little now, the end is near so I can afford more than the occasional treat. Thou I must remember not to go mad!!

It will be great to have one debt well and truly gone! only 5 more days and you can breathe freely (is that the only HFC one you have? will you be fully away from them then?)Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup

I just have one loan and one credit card now. Soon it will just be the credit card.
A huge difference from when I started, I had the credit card, 3 bank loans, and a loan from my mum!!:D
2 of the loans were/are HFC, it will be great to get rid of the idiots!!
