Boys declined on polishing for me today, far to busy on there computer games, my youngest will soon be on my PC so Im just catching up on the forum for abit while Leah has her lunchtime snooze! The weather is horrid so I cant kick the boys out to go play.

I wish this weather would go away, its dragging out the winter!

I've no grandchildren here this weekend for me to force into child labour...so hubby has had to do it. I'm being rather spoilt of late as daughhter was on holiday for Easter hols and did all housework, now hubby has been on sick for two weeks so he's done it and the cooking. Back to dr's yesterday and now it's infected and so another week on the sick for him so another week of no housework/cooking for me...could get used to this lifestyle.
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

Hey forum, hope your all ok,

In my recent post above I decided we were not going to try for a full & final offer of payments to date. But now I've had more time to think I'm not so sure I've made the right choice.
We are no where near having enough money to buy a car at the moment even with a months break, some overtime that's not much we are losing hope. Finding a car that's got a mot for 10/12 months for around a £1000 is not going well. My original plan is to save save save till we have abit more, but it's coming to light it's just going to hold us back on things we need.
We need to buy things to protect Leah & protect stuff from Leah! And now expenses are slowly creeping up in the household budget on baby milk, food & the boys needs with them growing.
The things in hold ate new mattress for the boys now they are dry at night. Our own bed has collapsed, currently being held up with bits of wood! with all the sudden bleeds at night (sorry for to much info!) I ruined our mattress & carpet which is cream (landlord choice not ours!) with my husbands back condition we really could do with a orthopedic/memory type one & a new base or something.
We moved into this rented property 3 years ago now & know the landlord wants to sell it in 2. I had hoped to start saving towards a large deposit as there are no private land lords in our area & estate agents check your credit file! So we are doomed when we need to move before we even start without a large deposit to offer because of our poor credit rating.
Im Really starting to wonder if this is really worth struggling onto to the end for the sake of our creditors. I know in the 4 years we have paid in around a £1000extra, probably more ive lost track, so if you knock that off what we are expected to payin the next 10 months, leaves only just over £1000 left, our dividend would not have much effect to end early.

I'm just pondering over it all n it's driving me mad so thought I would share.

Lyns I would go for it, as even if they don'y accept it you haven't lost and you can just continue as now.
As you say finishing a year early isn't going to affect the dividend as you have managed to pay extra in.
I know it is daunting though, rocking a boat that is steady at the moment but fingers crossed it will be worth it in the long run.
If life is what you make it, I must have been in a strange mood when I made mine

Hi all - thank u, I'm seriously now considering it. When they boys are back to school I'm going to get my paper work out & look at what extra we have paid in. I've kept a financial diary since the start of the Iva to keep tabs on it all, I know it's definitely at the £1000 mark.
Ive got the number for GTs department to have a chat about it, I just need to get some confidence in me to ring!
