@Diane : He had relatives back in the late 19th century who owned a few properties in your neck of the woods. Think you'd be interested - I assume it's still on BBC Iplayer

As you see fit.
Personally I like any form of local and personal history, regardless of how one sided it may be.

Depending on the figures you take, every single person in this country owes between £15000 and £90000 as debt incurred by our governments when they borrowed to pay for lifestyles we cannot afford.

Though really you need to look at your personal 'balance sheet', no harm in having debt if you have assets too. For example, we are paying 1.49% on our mortgage, so right now not worth paying that off.

Afraid not.

......shows the place to be a right old sh*t hole....even tho most of the folk on it arent from Blackpool!

It's in program-makers interests to make their shows look gloomier and more seedy than life really is for most people. They love to adopt the the "shock and awful" principle. Perhaps the epitome of this was the "how clean is your house" series which was more about mental health issues rather than top tips for keeping things clean.

I will have to check with the wife if iam debt free from that move when i was 17

On Thursday evening at about 10pm, for the first time ever in my adult life, we were entirely out of debt. No mortgage (we downsized a few years ago and bought outright), all the bills were paid, no loans and the credit card we use for day to day shopping was even £20 or so in credit. Obviously, the next morning something had emerged and today we have used the card to pay deposits for holidays next year. It wwas a short lived joyous pleasure though!

So, the question is, have any of you ever been totally out of debt?

Calorific, well done an I myself will be in this position in 3 years but dont forget it has been a long hard road to get there and you have paid your way

Back to the original subject (bill roach can take care of himself).
I have owed 'diddleysquat for last 20 years.
I have edited this post and deleted the remainder of my comments because of the certain poster who follows me around, insults and stalks me .
He needs to get a job and occupy his mind.
No big deal though- I can handle it.

He's just showing himself up.

 

[sooey]

I won't care either.
