    TBH we can't afford it either but Abbie wanted a new phone so the deal was once she gets her ema for staying on at school she'll be paying £30 a month to me so I can pay the phone off as it's on my very account xx

    Well I've been mega grumpy

    Parent dropped off her two kids and declared she can't pay me this week cause her tax credits haven't been paid :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    She doesn't know when she can pay me and had to cheek to ask if I can I feed them lunch......eh hold on whilst I take imaginary money out my backside :rotfl:

    This isn't fair and it's the rubbish side of being self employed I guess but that money was supposed to pay for my son's birthday weekend :mad::mad::mad:

    Well they ain't missing out as Kk turns 5 and Xander turns 12 on Monday so we are out on Saturday xx will juggle about money somehow xx
