What fabby blog entries throughout the festive season.. I have so enjoyed keeping up to date with you all in this way...

It has been very hard to decide re awards.. so hope you will agree re: the following.

Gold award goes to
Clarey Farey for her blog 'My journey so far'
Clarey Farey is 38 months into the IVA so its is great to get perspective on the homeward stretch.. the first entry gives loads
of information re: the how and why, and the second blog entry shows life in an IVA can be a positive experience..
Well done and keep blogging!

Silver award goes to
Lizj72 for her blog 'All I wanted was a baby'
This is a great blog.. reality alongside life, the events of the last year would have felled anyone else, but this blogger shows incredible optimism.
Congratulations !

Bronze award goes to
Isthereanend for her blog 'There is an end'
Again this blog shows guts and reality mixed with a huge dose
of optimism.. it also shows how this forum can rally round in the most unexpected ways.
Read this blog to see what I mean !


The 'I will survive' blog goes to
CJ01 for her blog 'My story'
Not only a great blog to read about christmas, but anyone who can still be positive with a broken leg 2 weeks before christmas is definitely a survivor.
Keep going !

It has been so good to see all the blog updates,
Thanks to one and all for all your contributions..
Keep blogging, the next awards will be here very soon !!

Wow! What can I say? I was so chuffed when I logged on just now and saw that I had won!
I have read so many fantastic blog entries on here, and found it a great exercise writing my own...........never thinking for a minute that I would win!

Thanks to everyone who posts on this site and continues to provide support

And well done to all from me. I feel a little guilty accepting an award as my blog is really my lifeline to get all my feelings down. I love to read others and often forget the time when doing so! I plan one day when my IVA is finished to read it all through and hopefully know then it will have all been worth it.

no one need feel guilty about accepting the blog awards....they are a window into peoples lives and anyone....myself included...who is vulnerable enough to write the most intimate details about their debt..marriages,,jobs...finances etc...deserve huge encouragement and i know that the folk behind this forum hold everyone who blogs in high esteem....and the reward of vouchers is just a small token of encouragement and thanks.....

so keep blogging and enjoy the vouchers...
