    Yes, this would only apply if your father is on any housing or council tax benefit.

    As for not goin out, well thats the only pleasure I have in life so im hardly going to give it up without a fight.

    Then in my eyes you are not ready to be helped on here, some people are giving you excellent advise. If you don't want to sacrifice your lifestyle then it's just a waste of time the others helping you on here.. :confused:

    Sacrifice my lifestyle?? I go to blackpool or southport once a week for a walk its hardly living it large is it?

    I cant put this any clearer I pay my father £120pm whether I work or not, I pay council when I am working as he loses his housing/CT benefit.

    Whats wrong with you people, I ask for advise and I get slagged off.

    OK ill give up everything! I still cant afford to pay the bills so what now?

    @troo if you only spend £60 a year on clothes you must look like a proper tramp.
    That's just plain rude. I hope you apologise for that comment to someone who's trying to help you.

    While you ignore what every poster is telling you and are also rude to them there's nothing we can do to assist.

    It costs you over £100 a month, something you cannot clearly afford :confused: Going for a local walk is free :rolleyes: after you have cleared your debts, then is a time to go for expensive walks in you wish :confused:

    When my world crashed in around my ears I was told "beggers can't choosers".
    I have made sacrifice after sacrifice and so have my children.
    The road can be painful and long. The sooner you take the first steps the closer to the end you are. I am not at the end of my road but I'm a good way along.

    It will not be easy and people here will help but you have to want to be helped.
