    I will stop paying Fine number 1 and remove it as soon as I get confirmation they have his new address and I know the bailiffs won't turn up here when he doesn't pay.

    Kids all bailed out on me and are asleep :rotfl::rotfl:

    Morning :D

    Headaches shifting which is a relief was fit for nothing yesterday evening! Even the small's kept checking I was okay :o

    New washer in :D old washer out... total cost £11.25 :D happy with that and a new 12 month warranty.

    Need to go grab milk and electric today then I can pay what ever I have left to the council tax.

    No meal plan done yet but today will be something with chicken and tomorrow will be beef roast, with the leftovers from the roast pies will be made :D

    So todays plan is
    Shop for milk and electric
    Make something good with chicken ;)
    Bake some snacks (letting children help so they are entertained)
    Board games and popcorn this evening.

    Weather is dreadful, so no park or playing outside :( Oh well only day 1 and we have lots to keep us busy ;)

    Glad you're feeling better, Hidden. Bit wet here as well but we've been for a long walk and done the shopping already. Brand new washer? Great. I was lost without mine when it broke down a couple of weeks ago. Have a good day.

    Brand new washer :D Can't complain about the online company about anything. Manufacturer total different opinion! £11.25 for them to bring a brand new washer, remove the old, install the new and take the old one away!

    The weather seems to be drying up, you watch it will start pouring down just as we set out to get milk :rotfl:

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

  • Hi HI :wave:

    Glad you are feeling better. x

    I was also going to say should you still be paying his fine. I understand though way you did but should you not put more to your own than his? Or is there a minimum? Also can you not let them know he doesn't live there anymore or do they require his new address as confirmation? Do you know where he is staying at the moment?

    Will you have a lovely weekend with the kids. It is lovely here this morning, no rain at all thankfully.

    They have his new address now ;) and the amount paid is set by the court, I have a feeling they are just going to go for an attachment of earnings but not my problem anymore :p

    Walked to town for milk and electric and a few other items fell in the basket £5.67 spent in the supermarket and £10 electric.

    Got some reduced meats and fruit and veg I couldn't leave, its rare I catch reductions. Kids are happy there's a huge amount of fruit again and a good variety and things we don't usually buy because of the cost :o

    Weather stayed dry and looks like it will brighten up so they are out in the back playing why I do some cleaning, we will save the baking for when it's raining ;)
