Got myself in to a bit of a mess

And done something really silly.

I was caught doing a driving offence months and months ago. Due to money issues one thing led to another and this was not paid by me, no real excuses at all

And today when I was out and about the police came to my door, with a warrant for an arrest in my name, which means I will need to go down to the police station. I know I been very silly and must have thrown letters away without opening them, but I honestly had no idea I was supposed to be in court.

I’ve been reading messages on Mumsnet for years now but your story has made me actually join so that I can leave you a message of support. Well done for getting things sorted, it must have been absolutely terrifying going through all that for a simple driving offence, things can easily escalate and push people to their limits. Give yourself a huge hug, put if behind you and know now that you can face anything.

Thank you for the kind words, was a horrible experience to tell u the truth

Was cacking myself at the thought of going in there early this morning and handing myself in, the fact I thought I may have covid last night made things worse
