What are my goals?

The True Path of Romance

My immediate concern is to rid myself of the lipoma on my neck, this is causing me constant pain.

The next step, literally, is to get my right ankle fit to carry some weight so I can walk with less pain that I did this month.

After this, I can concentrate on clearing my overdraft, the cause of which is a scam I was involved in with Pamela Olsted, and a lady "claiming" to be her sister. This will take several months, I was promised a loan refund, but I think that is part of the plot to keep me paying them, that comes to an end this week.

Once the operation on my neck is over, and I can walk easier, I shall arrange a meeting with my friend, Svitlana, in Didcot, hopefully in time for my birthday next month.

Romance in Didcot

Glad all over

I am planning to be clear of my overdraft ASAP, I have given up hope that the sister of Pamela Olsted who involved me in one of her scams will refund my loan.

I am forced to make further cutbacks in my household spending, I have few personal needs, other than going to lunch at a friend's cafe in Redcliffe, Bristol.

One week she says she needs £20 to pay bank fees, as the loan is 90% clear, the next week it has dropped to 65%, this has been going on for over a month, and I have ended the payments.

I am hoping to be clear of my overdraft by January. If I can be in the clear, it will make life easier for Svitlana and I.

One of the things I wish to do first is to visit Svitlana in Didcot, we can't plan that until she returns from her trip to see her family in Ukraine. After a couple of day trips, I will consider buying a Senior Railcard, if we get on well in person, I have no doubt we will.

Svitlana did suggest a sleepover at some time, this would make it more pleasant for us, as I won't have to worry about the retrurn trip to Bristol

The Overdraft Trap

I am in the same situation almost as Katie Price, we are both victims of a scam. Ironically, the began around the same time, nine months ago. I was approached by a lady "claiming" to live in Bristol, UK, who said she wished to have a relationship with me. She only wanted a relationship with my acount, I ended the friendship, if it was one, in June, 2026. Since then, a lady "claiming to be her sisiter, said she would pay the debt. I was wary of the second lady from the off, while it would have been fine to pay the £3,000 I am owed, she offered to pay £15,000 for my kindness, this is why I think it is a scam, as well as the fact, she keeps asking for £20 to pay bank charges, one week the debt is 90% paid, a few days later it drops to 65%, then goes back, only to repeat the run.

Unlike Lee Andrews, these ladies didn't lure me in with the promise of a false crypto account worth millions of pounds, neither did they offer marriage.

My new age will begin once I can clear my overdraft, then I can begin a true relationship, with my friend, Svitlana, who lives in Didcot, Oxfordshire. Svitlana did ask, genuiely, if I was interestd in a second marriage? A situation for me, which is awkward due to family issues. If it wasn't for family matters, I would consider the matter

The Overdraft Trap

The wait is off

 I was a Palooka 

I'll wait and see

The problem with an overdaft, is once we use it, it is hell to get clear.

Though I have been told, repeatidly for the last month, that I will be sent a refund for the loan I sent to Pamela Olsted, I won't believe it, until I have the money in my bank account.

Her sister has promised to repay me, but if one sister has lied to you for several months, why should you believe another sister?

At one time, PO "claimed" her other sister died from Covid, at first, I believed her, I thought knowing my wife had passed away not long ago from the illness, she wouldn't use it as trick to get money.

On my way back, in the winds and rain, and walking on a broken toe, the truth hit me, if she is after money, there is nothing to stop her using Covid as a twist
