    Meh I just feel like crying tbh :o

    I don't think the fact I'm £60 behind on the council tax arrangement helps, and I know if this is broken then they'll request the whole amount in full as I've already received one reminder :o:(

    That along with OH needing the £175 by the 13th or I don't even want to know the consequences.

    I just feel I don't know where to start :o

    Along with the fact my chest is still really bad and just walking upstairs makes me feel like I want to collapse in a heap!

    Boo. Need to stop feeling sorry for myself :o there's people so much worse off :o
  • HI you have every reason to feel cr*ppy.

    Right i'm going to be blunt your OH needs to get his head out of his a*$£ and stop piling everything onto you, he is an adult and needs to start acting like one, which means paying bills and paying for things for the kids before buying himself new toys and going out with his mates. At the moment he is acting like a spoilt teenager that wants everything his own way.

    If he NEEDS £175 by the 13th then he either needs to go and earn more money or sell something, why the hell should you and the kids go without and also why should you risk having to go to court because he isn't being a man and facing up to his responsibilities.

    Sorry if I have been too blunt.

    I'm in agreement with PWPS.

    Is the £175 the money for the stag do or is it for something else?

    You mention dire consequences but who are they dire for? Surely if he just owes his mate £175 they will be fine with it or is it another court fine?

    Definitely not to blunt. Alot nicer than what I have said about it to him.

    I don't want to say too much on here, its just not a nice friend and even if he does pay on time I'm still worrying about the situation and I don't know how I can fix that. More than just money being chucked at it.

    And while I think it does sort of worry him, he doesn't seem no where near as concerned about it as me and yet its all his doing.
