Thanks all
He did come downstairs for the inevitable big argument; but has since explained to me how awful a person I am and how I in fact 'caused' the argument by my actions. Can't believe in the past I actually used to buy that crap.
Anyway, first friend has arrived 20 minutes ago so now he's the life and soul of the party.Bottom line;
£49k paid off
