Borrowing money and accessing credit is not cheap. Interest rates vary but these days, they do tend to be high – there is no avoiding it.Just a simple search on the internet and you will find many stories about people who have entered into loan agreements without doing the necessary checks and research. These people have ended up getting into worse financial trouble which resulted in terrible experiences with less than trust worthy lenders. Don’t be one of those people!Always make sure you are fully aware of your own financial situation, your earnings, your expenditure and exactly whether you can afford to borrow money, before you go ahead and commit to any loan or type of credit.If you don’t consider what you can truly afford you may find yourself struggling to pay back a loan which will result in further interest and charges making the whole situation worse and the debt larger.Always be careful. Think and then think again before applying for any type of loan or credit. Always do your research and find out all you can about the lender you are considering. Look for trusted companies who have a track record in the financial sector. Make sure they have transparent and clear terms and conditions and that they answer all your questions. Good companies will NEVER try to ‘sell’ you a loan. If this happens, don’t fall for it. Lenders are there to help you, they are NOT selling you a product!While you may be suffering from a financial emergency and in need of emergency cash very quickly, try, wherever possible to consider all the ways you can access the financial help you need. Only borrow money as a last resort.Consider whether you can put things off for a week or two until you are paid, or can you borrow the money form family possibly? Sometimes these options will help you out and prevent you having to borrow money.If you do not have these options and you do need to consider a short term loan, always take into consideration how much you will be paying back. You need to be certain that when your next wages is in the bank, you can pay off the short term loan fully so you don’t incur late payment charges.The amount you can borrow depends very much upon the lender you are considering and how much the loan costs. It also is dependent upon what you earn in your regular monthly wage.The most important this is that you are in employment and receiving regular income into an active bank account. If you can meet these requirements and you have calculated how much you can afford to borrow and pay back, then a payday loan can really be helpful in an emergency.Do as much research as you can before you complete an online application form. The best lenders will provide clear and easy to understand information on their websites. They usually have a good loan calculator too so you can work out how exactly how much a loan will cost you.Always check there are not hidden fees or additional costs associated with borrowing. Make sure, before you apply, that you are aware of exactly how the loan works.The best thing to do is to compare three or four reputable lenders. Compare their prices, their interest rates and their services to customers. This will give you a good picture of what the best option is. Your best option is the lender who can help you financially at a cost you can afford and who are responsible lenders who offer all the information you require before you apply.So, before you apply, check the terms and conditions; check the APRs and check their reputation. Don’t believe the hype and fancy advertising or classy looking websites!By doing these simple things you will find a trustworthy lender who has experience in the world of finance. They’ll be able to help you in your time of need and you’ll have the peace of mind knowing you can afford the loan and know you will be able to repay it when agreed.

Shoe Repairs And Several Other Things When I Was 7
My Dad repaired most of our shoes believe it or not, I can hardly believe it myself now. With 7 pairs of shoes always needing repairs I think he was quite clever to learn how to “Keep us in shoe Leather” to coin a phrase!

He bought several different sizes of cast iron cobbler’s “lasts”. Last, the old English “Laest” meaning footprint. Lasts were holding devices shaped like a human foot. I have no idea where he would have bought the shoe leather. Only that it was a beautiful creamy, shiny colour and the smell was lovely.

But I do remember our shoes turned upside down on and fitted into these lasts, my Dad cutting the leather around the shape of the shoe, and then hammering nails, into the leather shape. Sometimes we’d feel one or 2 of those nails poking through the insides of our shoes, but our dad always fixed it.

Hiking and Swimming Galas
Dad was a very outdoorsy type, unlike my mother, who was probably too busy indoors. She also enjoyed the peace and quiet when he took us off for the day!

Anyway, he often took us hiking in the mountains where we’d have a picnic of sandwiches and flasks of tea. And more often than not we went by steam train.

We loved poking our heads out of the window until our eyes hurt like mad from a blast of soot blowing back from the engine. But sore, bloodshot eyes never dampened our enthusiasm.

Dad was an avid swimmer and water polo player, and he used to take us to swimming galas, as they were called back then. He often took part in these galas. And again we always travelled by steam train.

Rowing Over To Ireland’s Eye
That’s what we did back then, we had to go by rowboat, the only way to get to Ireland’s eye, which is 15 minutes from mainland Howth. From there we could see Malahide, Lambay Island and Howth Head of course. These days you can take a Round Trip Cruise on a small cruise ship!

But we thoroughly enjoyed rowing and once there we couldn’t wait to climb the rocks, and have a swim. We picnicked and watched the friendly seals doing their thing and showing off.

Not to mention all kinds of birdlife including the Puffin.The Martello Tower was also interesting but a bit dangerous to attempt entering. I’m getting lost in the past as I write, and have to drag myself back to the present.

Fun Outings with The camera Club
Dad was also a very keen amateur photographer, and was a member of a camera Club. There were many Sunday photography outings and along with us came other kids of the members of the club.

And we always had great fun while the adults busied themselves taking photos of everything and anything, it seemed to us. Dad was so serious about his photography that he set up a dark room where he developed and printed his photographs.

All black and white at the time. He and his camera club entered many of their favourites in exhibitions throughout Europe. I’m quite proud to say that many cups and medals were won by Dad. They have been shared amongst all his grandchildren which I find quite special.

He liked taking portraits of us kids too, mostly when we were in a state of untidiness, usually during play. Dad always preferred the natural look of messy hair and clothes in the photos of his children.
