Just found out that my ex (who owes me approx £kkkk in unpaid c/m from decades ago and who has resisted all efforts by various agencies to make him pay up) is gifting the child he's had in the meantime and who is now adult, the full deposit for a property.

Which is fine, except that the person concerned is also about to acquire most of my DD's house contents.

Which is fine, except they are not coming to collect these large items but want them delivered 40 miles.

Which could be fine, except that the vanloading and delivery now apparently has to take place on the very same weekend that she's moving house herself with two small children.

Which isn't fine. Not at all.

I have just spent half an hour on the phone soothing my vexed and stressed DD, and to my credit I have made no comment to her whatsoever concerning the first paragraph above.

There's a lot to be said for integrity Seren, and it appears that you'll walk away with yours intact:)

Hi everyone. Have sort of caught up but haven't gone back too far. RL a bit mad again. 3Dogs, your lists are amazing -- thank you.

Does anyone know, please, if the Sharpies are still comparing to S at £5 and if they are still being sold without the shower holder? I've the chance of going to a different A this weekend and have been rejecting them on the grounds that they don't have a shower holder.

Going to bed now but really hoping there will be a reply in the morning.

Night all.

I can't answer definitely Picasso. But I'm sure it was Braveheart who was buying them v S. Might be worth searching his posts:)

I have 'I'm only human' song going off in my head..... and today I used it rather appropriately!

I went in Tesco to get diesel, the chap two people in front of me paid and left, then the next woman went to pay. The SA realised that she had charged the 1st chap for the woman's petrol and not his... so I run out and call him back.... he said some really horrid things to the SA..what a nasty man..... I was trying to calm him down, and then ended up singing 'I'm only human.........' Well me, the SA and the other customers laughed... he clearly did not have a personality!
But was he a dancer??

" Are we human or are we dancers?"

Thanks TM, much appreciated.

If I'd known what was going to happen I would have offered to become DD's tenant myself and let her take her time in sorting out her stuff...
