Do Lloyds pharmacies have an annual conference that you could 'crash' with permission of course!
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
any trade fairs coming up? Not Lloyds specific, I know, but will get your 'message' out there.

Hi everyone, I just wanna quickly touch upon about not revealing one's debt to people. I for one have chosen not too divulge any of my debt details to anyone. Things are quite tight at the moment and I am finding that we are having to duck and dive going out with friends, having to lie more and more to friends abd family about the reason why we havent yet bought a house etc etc. It does become more and more tiresome having to hide behind it all. Personally I want to tell the world because in actual fact my lightbulb moment almost 2 years ago now was the most liberating experience of my sad little life so far. My financial situation will be changing for the better quite considerably in the not so distant future and whilst I was conisdering telling friends and family I am gonna put it on hold until I can see if the extra money allows to do more things and therefore maintain our debt free image without wasting it all if you see what i mean. I dont think it is the inability to buy things or go out that is the problem it is the deceit that is the worst so at least with the extra money we shall not feel quite so stifled. Does that make sense?Debt Apr 06 Huge Debt Now Small in Comparison:eek:Debt Free Date March 2011

Hi flares...good for you!
As long as you're dealing with it it's up to you who you tell or don't tell!
I wouldn't be surprised if many people that we all know are also having debt problems but just haven't had their own LBM yet.

Linda, being as the weather is so nice at the moment (ha!) DH has decided we're going to have salad tonight! Sometimes I wonder what goes through his head! Salad is good for the summer, not on a miserable day in March! I might actually say I'll have pasta and pesto instead!Official DFW Nerd Club #20 :cool: Proud To Be Dealing With My Debts DFW Long Hauler #109
