    They are so nice inside too, there's another complex about two minutes further down the road and a friend of mine has one there. She's my age and already has a mortgage, and a baby. I really feel like I've spent too long faffing around :(
    It was faffing around that ended up with me having 2 kids at 22 ;)

    Toto, sorry to be nosey, but how long ago were your defaults?

    that's ok snags. The defaults range from around 3 years ago to 2 years ago, some accounts took forever to default which is why they are so spaced apart. There's a CCJ which was paid off in full which was about £600. Before that it's all pretty ok, and I never had any mortgage issues, always paid that on time even in the we can't eat months. Hubby has 2 defaults which are a couple of years old too, from the same problem but he had a lot less credit than I did.
