    The only bell end around here would appear to be you.

    As others have said, I really do hope you're a sockpuppet. If not, Hector's gonna bend you over the bonnet of your "prestige" car for his money

    I agree, I'm now convinced that Contractor79 is just a rather poor example of the species "Troglodites sockpuppetus".
    If he's not then he's terminally stupid and shouldn't be allowed out without responsible adult supervision...

    why worry about getting bankrupt, I heard that people will lend to you 12 months after that anyway
    would they refuse you setting up limited co if you had previously become bankrupt?

    just means you only pay like £10/month to live when you're on the bench

    What is the point of this thread????

    You seem to think you'll get another contract quick enough, so why are you asking???

    It cured me of buying high priced, shiny cr@p and living beyond my means.

    I don't ever want to be in the place I once was....

    Do yourself a favour - don't believe the hype of the well paid ad executives - you don't 'need' more stuff....

    I now buy 'life experiences' not more chattels...
    Shhhhhhhhhhhh!

    The country needs people like this to borrow and spend money they haven't got on things they don't need to lift us out of recession.
