johanne the effect on his mothers benefits would be very small and cheaper for him to give her anything she does loose than a place of his own! If you get him to contact welfare rights they will be able to tell him just how little she'd loose so he can go back with the exact figures to his mother.

Dont be silly! She wont budge on the matter. I personally think shes too ashamed to let the neighbours know our relationship has broke down...THATS why she wont have him home. This is the woman who hasnt even told family that it had (some found out via facebook! ) who didnt tell rest of the family his house was repossessed everyone except his sis was told he'd "sold it"..... at FILs funeral i had alot of people refer to me as OH's "wife" too, strangely it was mostly her Union of Catholic mother friends who im sure she didnt want to have to tell that despite being 9 months pregnant i was "just" his fiancee, we werent even living together and i wasnt catholic! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: She is seriously miffed i put sarahs surname as "mine-his" on her birth certificate too, even though shes known by most places as just his.:rolleyes:

She is ashamed of him.... it comes across loud and clear... rest of the family all have well paid jobs, big houses, flash cars etc and are very middle class yet were up to our eyeballs :rolleyes:

Either that or shes niavely hoping leaving us in the house together will force us to get back together........ when in likelihood will just lead to one of us being done for murder :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Go Johanne! :j We won't split. Sounds like my MIL. (Irish Catholic, living in Wales) She's like that over me and one SIL's husband coz we's English! I wouldn't mind but we'd been married 6 months when I lost our first, 2 years when 2nd arrived and 9 years when DS arrived. She got married in December and had DH (1st of 7) in January! Talk about double standards. To be fair, she seemed to go very strange after FIL died, but my youngest SIL said she hasn't a maternal bone in her body. She didn't even send DH a card to congratulate him for his Foundation degree. I really grudge sending her a photo, but she can have it for Christmas, she'll get nothing more from me, and I've stopped sending birthday cards coz she never bothers with her grandchildren. :mad:

Afternoon all

Pigpen - repeat after me - I need sunshine. I really do think this winter will be really bad for people suffering from depression where they are that way inclined or not. Soappie's joke about solar power is true - we need sunlight to make seratonin (sp) did you know that 90% (or something like that) of our seratonin is produced in our gut and we all know what yours is like. IBS and depression can go hand in hand and it is not just because IBS makes you fed up. Add in the economic climate and we are all going to suffer. So we need you to get a grip - if you start crumbling there is no hope for the rest of us - chin up chuck x

Exactly right dusty - we havent a snowball's chance in hell of getting through the next few months without you pigpen so deep breaths and show us how its done oh illustrious leader!!!!
