Will be brief, daughter due to be sent down. Any one have a clue what to pack? Do we pack a bag? I've looked on line and it's a bit vague . Any help greatly appreciated.

Hope things are going ok for you Drinks. Belated Happy New Year x

The girlfriend is now an ex girlfriend. She is in a custody suite arrested for assault and criminal damage.
My fuckwit daughter is fine and , without sounding comical, has full custody of the hamster they bought together.
The girlfriend was high on coke and booze, when she chased and battered my daughter, who was sober.
I have reached my snapping point, I'm ill with whatever is going round.

Oh drinks, hugs xxx

drinkswineoutofamug · 12/01/2018 11:03

I'm not feeling it today Groove, I've got lurgy and a raging chest infection, which seems to be doing the rounds. Spent most of the night sorting daughter as she was having seizures, stress?
Seriously fed up

Gosh, you're both going through it at the moment Sad

But you're doing brilliantly. Get well soon and keep at it.

youarenotkiddingme · 13/01/2018 19:40

Oh no Thanks

Sounds like you're both going through the mill again.

Hopefully she remains an ex and your dd will start rebuilding her life - she has a fantastic mum by her side to support her whilst she does it

drinkswineoutofamug · 26/01/2018 15:21

She has court Monday for drug rehab review. The drug rehab she's been to about twice.

OP posts:
youarenotkiddingme · 26/01/2018 20:42

Good luck!

How are things - is the GF still out of the picture? Is that helping the situation at all?

drinkswineoutofamug · 26/01/2018 20:50

Yep the still ex gf lives in a different town now . My daughter has re engaged with friends which I'm hoping is good. Haven't asked if she wants company on Monday , her probation officer says it another tick box and it should be ok

OP posts:
youarenotkiddingme · 26/01/2018 21:05

Hopefully court will see she's taken a wrong turn but is starting to find the right path again now and needs nurture and support to raise her confidence to continue on the same path.

drinkswineoutofamug · 29/01/2018 01:50

So she's got court in 6 1/2 hrs.
She's still not home.
For some idiotic reason I've waited and waited up for her. The letter from the courts had a big fat you must attend so gathering this time it may be important.
