    It was that one but from A and did not compare to T
    Do I return it or keep it
    If you owned a shop and someone brought back cheese would you accept it ?
    Knowing it could be contaminated, would you bin it? or put it back on the shelf ?
    When next you go shopping would you like to think you might be buying cheese that someone else had taken home and then returned ?
    What would be your reason for returning cheese ?
    Please dont take this personally, but far too many people are taking the pi$$. I know you can probably "get away with it", but the food will just get tossed in a skip & the supermarket WILL cover its costs.

    If they will allow you to return it. Then they allow it and you can do it. If they want to know why.. say u bought the wrong one. (which you did)

    That would make me as bad as her. They'll soon learn how manipulative she is. I'll wish them well and wait for the blow by blow account.
    Imdebtfree - you are a better person than me as I would want to give their mother a piece of my mind. However, it's all about the kids and as you say, don't rise to it. What a shame for you though. xx

    Thanks all. The boys live with their mum and are aware how difficult she can be and have tough relationships with her. I do not want to come between them and whenever possible stand up for her OH had to fight through the court to even see them.

    They can have 2 guests each. The boys don't know I'm not coming yet. I'm sure they'll be fine and I'll get a second by second report from ds2! We are useful when there's early morning drop offs or inconvenient appointments

    what dose your parnter want? if he wants you to go then i suggest you go the sooner the mother sees it the quicker she will get used to it ,after all you sound like your a big part in there lives big time so if i was you id ask my oh if he wants me there if he says yes id be going expecially if school allowed it but if he didnt want me to go id respect that

    also might help if you point out she cant dictate when good enough ie appointments and droping off and pick up help with guitar practice but you cant got to the good bits it sound unfare to me

    i have opersit problem dd1 father "hasnt got time for parents evening , school plays graduation from nursery her dance class comps etc " but her step dad has steped up to the plate and he comes to all above with us and i am always left explaining how daddy is busy "working" when infact he cant b arsed :mad::mad::eek::eek:

    Some of us have a moral view of life and business, your views are well documented on various threads going back years.






    Dont bother starting an argument, I know you will win, and that you are always right, well, in your barely legal and morally corrupt mind anyway.

    Thank you. I'd love to have a go at her but the boys and OH would be the losers. So all of you heard my anonymous rant and I got it off my chest.

    Now to asda or tesco or both . . .
