 My sister looks after her sons finances, he is 21, he is self employed and if she did not do this for him he would never save gthe money for the tax man etc. This way, his bills are paid on time and he knows exactly how much money he can spend on himself.
 Personally I wouldn't look after my son's wages as I am crap with my own money! lol Maybe I should get him to look after mine?! :rotfl::rotfl:

Plus the workmen are inconsiderate b*stards, they have broke my Sensored light out the back, not replaced the washing line they have taken down. The vibrations in the walls even made the plug to the washer come out of the socket!!! Plaster has fallen off the walls, the idea was to retie the brickwork. Kinda Ironic.
 Ho and Im going back up the allotment to do some more digging.
 Oh dear, hope you can get a "positive result" from the council, if they are anything like mine you'll be waiting weeks!
 My light broke in my bathroom and it took them two weeks to fix it - can you imagine, going to the loo and having a bath in the dark for two weeks!!
 Have fun digging, still peeing it down here..BSC No: 2450

Maybe Ill take some pictures, and withhold some rent, to cover costs of replacing said knackered light, and some polyfilla, ho and £20 per hour for my time repairing there cockups!!!"Well, that sounds like a pretty good deal. But I think I got a better one. How about I give you the finger, and you give me my phone call"

            I dont know if this is a positive thing to do today but:
 I am looking after the kids (boy 3years, girl 5months) for the weekend, the wife is going to visit some friends from this afternoon till sunday afternoon.
 I have looked after them seperately for 2 to 3 days before but never both together for such a long period of time, i have a feeling i am going to be run off my feet.
 I honestly dont know how she does it every day, all i do is go to work lol.:grouphug: hehe it always makes me chuckle0
