I really thought it was tomorrow.. hubby can take him but I asked DS1 to pick him up and apparently that 'interferes with his plans'.. well F*** your plans brat..

Sometimes he is the most horrible, selfish, arrogant piece of dung worm dung ever to draw breath.. the rest of the time he is just an a$$hole!! Fortunately my sister is half decent and might collect him for me.. or my mother or stepdad would.. but it is a faff getting into town and back at bedtime.. and I'm out at 6pm..

Hugs confused newbie....really hope he's ok.
Dusty - i'm not sure why they've separated the year 5 and 6 as for the last two years they've had two mixed classes. DDs teacher for next year took DDs present class this afternoon as her normal teacher was away. Apparently the child who is normally a total ***t started playing her up and she just looked at him and said 'you don't behave like that for me - end of story'. He didn't so much as move for the rest of the lesson. I think her reputation precedes her as they all know she won't take any nonsense! Yeahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! I saw her at hometime and she came over to say that I had no need to worry about discipline next year as it just won't be an issue.
You know that really long list I had earlier, the one that just said revision. Guess what? I've still not started. I really must start now!0 -
Hi All
Many many many thanks for all the words of encouragement - we all appreciate them here.
Pre-march out was okay, apart from the fact that we have to pay £200 to have the house cleaned (aparently its compulsory here).
Have registered with another houseing agency. This is one that provides low-cost accommodation for ex-services. Its called homes for heroes and they specialise in for the disabled. Well i'm ex-army and disabled! So the application has gone in my name. They are classing us as homeless now as we have only been given another couple of weeks. And ...... there is a house in Elgin possibly coming available soon! Apparently its empty now so please keep your fingers crossed!!!!!
We are also waiting to find out if we can get an interest free "pay what you can when you can" loan from the british legion so we can pay off all our debts and not worry about stuff like the car getting repossessed! We also have someone looking to see if we can get our car and trade it for a cheaper smaller car, and get our car finance paid off in the process. Now that would be a big bonus!
So fingers crossed that this house in elgin comes our way and soon!!!! That would be such a big weight off our minds, that and the money for the loans then we would be able to concentrate on getting on with our lives!
The complaint is in, but apparently they can still kick DH out of the army, and let the complaint run its course. If they find in his favour then he will be allowed back in. If that happens they will be getting a one finger salute from me and a lawyer will be getting us shed loads of compensation!!!
We have also asked the legion for info on business start up. DH has an idea for a business and i have an idea for one, and we could run the two at the same time, as one is day time and the other is night time. DH said that the legion sounded quite interested in us running the two together so thats an option.
And DH may have a job! A company he called today were most interested in his military qualifications and sound quite positive. They are in inverness but if he has to commute then so be it!
Thank you to you all. Will keep you updated. Please keep your fingers and toes crossed for this house in elgin! I think if we could get this place then things would be great. It would be a home, our first proper home that we could decorate and make our own.
Thanks all. love you all for the support

yeah im ok. Bit upset but ok. I dont think hes playing away but its the woman i caught him (purely by accident) having VERY dirty "text sex" with when i was 14 weeks pregnant, after meeting her in some mobile phone chatroom.
Im not thinking theres anything going on now or in person god hes out at work so much he doesnt have time to see me nevermind anyone else... and shes saying he hasnt text her in a while...
BUT he promised me he'd deleted her number and would never speak to her again..... Which obviously he hasnt when "Donna" flashed up on his mobile! :mad: She is saying how she "loves his friendship" so doesnt wanna stop talking to him and only text to see how his fathers day went and then gushed on about how she didnt wanna break up the family cos he is always going on about how much he loves the baby.... so he has obviously spoke to her in the last 8 weeks!! (oh and i did notice she didnt mention how much he loves me though and when i pointed it out she was like "oh well erm im sure he does")
Maybe im overreacting but he knows how hurt i was and ive never stopped him talking to anyone else.. (im not like that i usually just bite my lip if im jealous and vent to my mum or something...) but she was just supposedly some random in a chatroom and he knew how much i was hurt by it and how much it meant for him NOT to carry on talking to her for the sake of our relationship.
Think i will go to my mums in a bit for a chat.. cheer me up hopefully. But if you hear on the news in the next few days about a man being murdered in liverpool by being beaten to death with a breadmaker...... you know the cheering up didnt work :rolleyes:
(*mutters to self* Pah, bet if i went the doctors they diagnose me with PND at the mo..... more like PAD.. partners a di**head )0 -

Johanne - definitely a case of PAD - they can be so thick at times!!! Hugs xx0 -
Johanne.. I've had PAD for years!! lol.. the PND and PTS was just a bonus!!.. Have a dog biscuit.. in fact have 2.. lol.. I hate men.. they are all rodents at heart.
