    .........OH is thinking of asking if that female friend can stay here... lets see if he dare.. and the woman whose house he stayed at when he was supposed to have been taking his mother home a couple of weeks ago.. I have her name, address and phone number... now... do I ring her and put the fear of God into her.. or do I let it ride and drop it in conversation with his mother? Oh the temptation to turn up on the doorstep lol


    :eek::eek:

    Just spotted this, what the fck does he think he is playing at??

    I guess by your post you didn't know. Staying at another female's house with your knowledge is one thing, but words fail me.

    And as you pitching up at yours to stay, I know a few choice words if needed!, !!!!!! I am shocked.

    One question if he was taking his mother home, where was his mother, while he was stopping over else where? or did he drop her off first and then stayed else where!

    Not sure if DD will be going to school tomorrow, they have swimming in the afternoon and have to walk to and from the secondary school round the corner.....in the cold with wet hair!!! I'll see how she is in the morning....she woke up earlier from her nap, boiling and crying, I gave her some cuprofen(??) and she seems ok now though........we'll see.....

    OH, DD and her friend were fed, friend gone home and DD in bed. Dishes done and HHI got done eventually!!!
