Seeing the coffee has reminded me of the Kenco Rappor Coffee jar (200g?) for M at £2.34. And the Cheese Feast Pizzas may be on vs M at 2 for £3 again (Tvs M?). And the Rustler's Chicken Sandwich, BBQ Rib and other one should be at £1 for M.0

Mother has 2 kids (twins) only expected 1, never wanted more.
She plays the off agaist each other, slagging them off if they didn't come up to her expectations
Nobody is good enough for her daughters unless they're rich as f**k.
Along comes grandchildren and unless the daughters do as they're told, they'll be cut out of the will and it will go to grandkids.
Grandkids include my wifes son, £ signs in his head (lazy B*st*rd)
And then a great grandchild appears, so she not only has control of her kids, but her grandchildren too.
Pressure from my wifes parents and from her son has forced her to do all of the carp that's happened. I don't hate my wife, I still love her but I feel sorry for the way her parents are and the way they feel that need to contol everyone around them. They couldn't control me, so they forced my wife and I to end.
Sorry peeps. I'm just at a lost end at the mo.
Sounds like you could both do with mediation or relate.
Yes it is a good idea to meet wife for a chat but as straight after mil visit today please get a mate in to housesit if you go to meet wife as they will know your movements (maybe).
Everyone is different, maybe it could work with you living in seperate houses (atleast while mil is alive). I think you need to work towards talking to wife at least until she has given back half your savings as if she is genuine she knows this was wrong.
She had no right to send tax disc back if not registered owner of car they should not have given her a refund.
Important you get all paperwork together and sit down and register for utilities, broadband ect. Council tax will be drastically reduced amount as you are currently on esa.
I know there are varying opinions on here but you need to get things in order before before any talks with wife. You need your car road worthy or it will not help you back on your feet.
Look on the bright side. All those utilities to set up along with car insurance great oppotunities to use topcashback and build a little money for the future.
When all this is done you can talk to wife with a clearer head as your house will be in order.
I hope I am of some help to you.
I was locked out of my home by ex who moved his g/f in and denied my mother access to collect a few of my clothes (we split whilst both working on cruise ship so had a couple of days for mum to go in and get my jewelry and laptop but my case was lost travelling home so I had no clothes and his g/f who had jumped ship without uk visa was wearing them)
Police escorted my mother and gave her 5 minutes to grab what she could.
I rented a flat and only had a duvet borrowed from mum and a laptop yet I remember dancing round to britany spears and christina Aguilera.
To say at 40 I had nothing is an understatement. I had to wait 7 weeks for him to go back to sea and his g/f to be deported then I went to police station and asked for help. They got a locksmith out and I found my ex had put tennants in property to stop me returning.
I gave tennant a new key and said I would take what was mine (everything except new telly as I had before I met him) I only took some things as felt guilty leaving tennant with nothing as he was covering mortgage. I bought beds off ebay to replay the double I took. I left sofas and dinning suite. I only took pc as I wanted something off it and ex had passworded it. It actually took me 18 months to even bother to get password off it. I took the washing machine as it was on hp and mum paid it off and kept it. I had already replaced things from ebay.
I remember a very good friend of ours coming to my new flat to see me. Typical of her she bought a couple of bottles of wine over and was shocked I had no fridge. Really didn't bother me as was hot summer of 2006 and I used to go to local pub for bucket of ice.
Sorry only a small part of my story but will help you understand where my (what I hope are helpful) posts come from.

Do I remember right. If there is something you want that is being reduced the next day you just put it in basket to hold price but don't need to check out until you have seen offers for each day.
Not sure would be get away with £50 reducing to £25 as I didn't get my xmas bonus. Might bulk up with non consumables mum can take back for a refund.
Mind you its not £50 a week just 3 weeks out of next 6.
Guess we need some good pp results like the granacha going back down in mr A
Signed up to shoppers thoughts and got on next Orchard trial but nothing from bzz for ages.
Sil had some vanish and a bottle of red through post from advent wins but only chicken tonight mocs for me and not the free jars I won either just 50p off.
Dd not had persil yet either.

Oh I don't know much about putting in basket and holding. I will probably do my shops on a Tuesday night for delivery next day. The £50 reducing to £25 should work. TS and I tested the theory on a previous offer and it worked
I don't find it's any good aiming for a PP on a half price shop, Ts are different to As and the price you're paying on the day (the half price offer) is the price that will be compared.0 -
Off to bed folks - hoping I sleep better tonight. ((hugs)) to the people who need them - goodnight0
