    Usual drivel if you have debt go bankrupt and wallow in self pity.
    Yes - that looks like the usual drivel you post.

    I think the clue was on the tow away truck. They had a sort of people carrier. They're never cheap.

    It all went wrong for them when he gave up his job to look after one of the boys who was ill/had a bad leg.


    Difficult to know as you don't get the details, but I think if she was self-employed and didn't pay the tax, then he becomes her employer by default and is liable. Maybe that £5k was an estimate. Certainly the amount she was receiving for his care wasn't in itself enough to pay tax on, but you never know the full details.



    Hopefully not mine, that's where I sleep.

    the people carrier was was ancient!!! it looked like it prob wouldnt even go,maybe thats why they took it on the truck!! lol
