  • They're getting free lodging, and free marriage councelling. They're not going to buy the house if their marriage is in this state, they'll just string you along til you boot them out. Next they'll be claiming some sort of rights on your property!

    I think you are all just very cynical. Here we have a new poster posting about a serious, albeit sometimes amusing, problem and asking for our help and support. I think it's only fair that we continue to listen attentively and give our considered advice. Take your pinch of salt if you like. ;)

  • Afternoon. Well Mr and Mrs C still are not talking. Mr C went out to pick up the remainder of his run over clothing and his dignity. He banged on the caravan door, but she wasnt answering.

    In the meantime, milk has been spilt over the kitchen floor by the Jones' and Mrs J is cursing me as we speak.

    Sorry I forgot to post the pic. I will get round to it I promise.

    The wife and I talked about having a dog in bed the night before as we have enjoyed having a dog around the house (having no kids, pets seem wonderful) and despite his penchant for Rudolf and Sindy I thought she would be OK with it. Women and puppies go hand in hand.

    Pics, NOW Mr Jones. PS, I'm in Cardiff, would love to join you and Mr/Mrs C for a drink ;)
  • They have just come back.

    They have asked whether they could stay one night in the house rather than freeze and have offered £100 for the inconvenience.
