Morning everyone, my mother is comming over for a show down with my dad later. It's not gone to plan for her and now she is skint stuck in a flat in a rough area with no money, my brother hates her, my dad couldn't give a flying flip flop her new fella can't understand the urgency of needing to find somewhere else to love (apparently the sheltered accomodation he is in doesn't allow for others to move in) and me I'm stuck in the middle with only my childrens best interests at stake. I went to the cab and they are too busy so I phoned them and they will call me next week to arrange an appointment. It's jus occured to me that If I am made homeless and my ex finds out, she will have me back in court pronto RE my residency order. Inally my girl friend has flown off to the canary islands for 11 days with her parents. All in all I'm one stressed out bunny!TOTAL AT START £13606.90 27/03/2018

Well I'm back, washing is all pegged out, and im showered and dressed (of a fashion, will need to change before I actually go anywhere)
OH is STILL playing on his new game!!
We have to go out later to get supplies for tomorrows bbq from his mum, but not til about 2ish, so I still have a couple of hours to relax.
Down - it sounds like you're in a pretty difficult situation and I'm afraid I cant offer much help, but what I will say is that you need to focus on the wellbeing of your children and yourself, the rest are all grown ups and can battle amongst themselves. I also noticed from yesterdays daily chat that you live not far from me, im in the grubby city though in Stoke not in the pretty town like you are, so feel free to pm me if there's anything I can help with locally.
Loves to everyone xxxx0 -
Good luck down. We are sill here and I've not finished packing
Better run before I get caught here...
Managed to get a bargain pressie for Mum tho, the joys of online shopping - plus quidco cashback

Morning all (just).
Katsu, enjoy the camping, sorry the fairies are on strike!
SRM, sounds like my kind of day you've got planned (apart from the ironing).
Hello Sarah, don't think we've chatted before.
Pooky, sounds horrible, take it easy.
Sally, sounds like I've missed loads!
Down, try not to get dragged into it all, easier said than done though I know.
Well, I've just ordered my new motability car! I've gone for a Vauxhall Insignia (the new Vectra), it's loads bigger than I'm used to but has all the features I need for no advance payment.
Then tonight I'm going to a 'gourmet wine night' which is part of the Leeds Loves Food festival, it's a four course meal with a selection of wines for £33. That's assuming I haven't melted into a little pool of goo by then, it's so hot!Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
Thanks guys my head is in a spin. I just feel like packing my things and telling the whole world to get fuuu...nnnkkkyy

I think it is about time that I bit the bullet and started being a grown up and remove myself from all of this and get my own place by any means nessasarry. If only I didn't have two ccjs.TOTAL AT START £13606.90 27/03/2018

Great news on the car Ames.
Down - Have you spoken to all the letting agents in the area regarding your CCJ's I'm sure there's got to be a way around it.
I spent the morning lost in the land of blogs.....managed to make myself one in the process
