getting debt paid and credit score file

hi everyone i have just paid a ccj off in full this month and sent away to get it satisfied on my credit file and have just made payment on a defaulted account (payed in full) and waiting for that to get marked satisfied i have one outstanding default from british gas for £186 that i hope to pay very very soon could anyone tell me with all these paid what impact it will have on my report/score i had problems late 2004 with my wife died of cancer and 2 defaults and the ccj from above recorded early in 2005 as these were just forgotten with the strees of losing a loved one and coping with our 5 month old son i was left with thing are better now so trying to get hold of my credit file any advice would be great!
