Hey guys

Just thought I would update you all on what has been happening. My better half had her second appointment with cab today and things are looking alot better. Bassically the girl at cab has arranged all interest to be frozen and has worked out a repayment plan that will see us nearly £100 better off each month.

Thanks to everyone that posted. All your comments were really helpful and helped put things in perspective.

So glad that things are getting sorted out. Enjoy the wedding - the fact that you have worked through this together is an excellent sign for the future. Best wishes, xx.

Hi all

Thought I would give you an update

The wedding went ahead as planned on the 25th of April, easily the best day of my life bar my daughter comming into this world. Married life has been bliss so far and we are both sitting down and working at our finance a lot more openly. Although things are very tight as with most people, it just feels a lot better because we know exactly where we stand.

Anyways, big thankyou to everyone that replied to this thread. It gave me the push in the right direction.

Feel free to post up your new married SOA and we'll see if there's any savings to be made. Started reading this thread with dread then noticed the date. Really chuffed for you guys.

Best wishes to both girsl and yourself.
