Hi Mrs. Probably not gonna be on this weekend, but just wanted to check in and see how you getting on. After Monday hopefully things will be more settled, either way. Not knowing is probably worse than anything at this stage. Hang in there chick. Come Monday you can at least start making a plan. xxDebt free as of July 2010 :j

I am very sorry to hear all the stress you are under and i am too dumb to have any advice but i can offer hugs and someone else to listen to you if that is any consolation. xSAHM getting organised 2010.

I would go to court Monday - I wouldn't be able to bear not knowing what was going on and wouldn't trust them not to stitch you up...

Oh dear mrcmr, I'm afraid in your position I would be VERY angry with your OH indeed.
In situations like this, every member of the business has to look out for himself, and watch his own back. Your OH doesn't seem capable of doing so right now.
Is there anything you can do to get him fighting out there in the business, rather than fighting with you?
There is a limit to what you can find out about the business, unless you are a member (do you hold any shares in it by any chance? That would give you a little power).
What you really need is for your OH to talk to the lawyer on Monday a.m., before court, to find out just what the situation is.
And he REALLY needs to go to the court. Whatever the proceedings are, all directors should be there whatever.
You don't want the others to do something like suggest your OH had offered personal guarantees for debts or whatever, and him not there to deny it.I try not to get too stressed out on the forum. I won't argue, i'll just leave a thread if you don't like what I say.0 -

im struggling to be honest with him at mo.Highest Debt £581,000 Nov 08 and now owe nothing! yes really! I have learnt my lesson the hard way!
