  • :rotfl: :rotfl: First parapraph..well what can I say:A (surprised you stand up on the train though - you could blackout when you stand up - how very noble of you!
    second paragrah...no..did not miss this 1...your getting enough money in to pay for it and 2...who would look after the little one while you got on with your holiday if you did not take her! Youpay for her drinks and taxis etc..oh because you live in the same house!!!and because you ft hundrends of ounds a month and she get £50 a week!

    Holiday - I dont have to take her because DS is staying at Grannies he is not coming with us.

    Drinks/taxis/food/club entry - I am not obliged to pay for her "nights out" in her leisure time!

    Affordability - as said once before, I have a lot of outgoings too. Diesel alone is £60 a week, thats the whole of my DLA and a bit more.
  • yesterday I told the lady in the chinese she's charged me £3.20 instead of £3.75,


    Were you buying your son's homecooked meal??!

  • Having just read all these posts - I do feel sorry for your little lad. A lady ( or young girl) who is looking after him but never does anything. Mum who works and studies ( WHICH IS GOOD)
    Have not read once the words play,cuddle,kiss,laugh with the little one from either of you.
    Must be very difficult but to halt the juice palava - could you upp her money and let her buy her own food. just a thought.

    I've said this already somewhere in the last 20 minutes but cant fine it. I'm with my son from getting homet at 6pm til 9pm or later. All weekend, and Wednesday 7am-12noon. During uni holidays (some 20 weeks a year) I'm with him a full, additional 3 days a week.

    I'd say that was more than other full-time working parents.

    :eek: :eek: :eek: quality.............not

    I have just read the whole thread and have chuckled to myself as how many times OP has contradicted herself.....

    I think she is a TROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL and getting peverse kicks from annoying people !you haven't annoyed me....I think you should get DLA for your memory blackouts or just being a compulsive gymnast with the truth!!!!!!!
    Oh....I'm not going to lie to you......At the end of the day, when alls said and done......do you know what I mean.........TIDY

  • Yes my blackouts do worry me, who wouldn;t be a little concerned?? And yes I've had to re-apply twice I think. Think its a life award now cos I've not heard anything for just over 2 years, I was anticipating a renewal form back in September.

    You haven ot heard anything for just over 2 years ...mmm..so your son WAS born on the last application then:rolleyes: If you have had a life award then please can I have a photocopy as my two brain tumours, and 20 seizures a day only get me 18 month renewable awards.
    I have had brain surgery - sorry if I am a little confused sometimes ;)

    I'd guess as soon as the little one is in bed. OP wouldn't dream of fainting for real, or in her house! No benefit (literally) to her in that.
