    Hello all,

    I thought an update was in order.

    Well things have changed (a bit) so hopefully it will all come out in the wash.

    The cottage by the sea fell through and they though they have sold the old house are waiting to see if they can get a mortgage on a new one.

    Its seems Uncle had taken out loans for Baby and not told Aunty and its affected their credit rating due to available credit.

    Currently, the excuse being, rather than renting somewhere they have moved into their respective parents houses. personally I think this might be the precursor to a separation announcement

    Baby did come home to the old house then met up with some friends got drunk had a big bust up with them as they would not give him some money he stormed out and is currently whereabouts unknown.

    So i am hoping as the sale price of their house is in the bank that aunty will just split and get a little flat somewhere and have the peace she deserves.

    this seemed to be the plan. I just hope she sticks to it.

    Do you think she will want to live alone? Is she not liable for her OH debt? Surely they were married for decades...

    I hope Aunty gets her share of the money in an account that nobody else can touch!

    Aunty need to make sure that all debits from the bank account require two signatures, or it will be funding baby's new exciting life.

    She risks being left with nothing.
