Eek, bet that was a bit scary though les. I don't care if they were police, what were they doing mounting the pavement?!

TheLadyEvenstar · 08/05/2009 23:12

Dal, they were chasing a young lad who was cycling along. But the cuffed him and then uncuffed him very swiftly.

I can't and won't dare repeat what I said or called them ooppss

Inzi, great! We can compare notes and do it together . I think it's a great plan, can't beileve I didn't think of it before. I need to look in to the self employed aspect of it as I don't know how to go about paying my own N.I, anyone know??? I've heard I can earn up to about £6000 tax free, anyone know if this is right?

Inzi - What pricing structure do you think you'll go for?

TheLadyEvenstar · 08/05/2009 23:14

LMAO that makes 3 of us with the ironing business idea then!

TheLadyEvenstar · 08/05/2009 23:19

Oooh all very exciting. I don't think there is nayone else doing it here but have only cheked google. Will have to look round local shops etc where they might advertise to double check. Think i'll have to be quite reasonable cause there are not many high paid jobs here (I don't think there are anyway )

As you might have seen from my thread inzi, I can't decide whether to charge by item, weight or bag???

Dalrymps · 09/05/2009 00:00

Well, i'm off to bed ladies, thanks for your help, chat tomorrow, sweet dreams!

Don't worry about the other company inzi, it's jusr business after all, you can't stop competitors (I sound a bit wall street there don't I lol). I'm sure they'll still have their fair share of regulars anyway, it's not as if you could single handidly take all their customers!

I want to design some leaflets for myself but still can't settle on a name!

TheLadyEvenstar · 09/05/2009 09:33

WhiteWineAndJaffaCakes · 09/05/2009 11:16

Muppet - well done on your assignments. Sounds like Tobias will be making an early entrance! Love your description of Ollie.

LES - great news about the landlord.

FT - at your dh babysitting Alex in the pub.

Dal - ironing service sounds like a good idea. Ironing service near us has name "Good Impressions" (with the 'press' emphasised). Lol at Dylan throwing a tantrum over a brush - Anya's just done exactly the same thing but she wanted ME to do the sweeping and wouldn't stop crying until I did . She follows me round and points at piles of dust - didn't realise that it was such a good game . (PS I'll email you some stuff about tax/NI)

LLL - hope your ankle's getting a bit better now.

Stefka - hugs to you hun - you can always share a glass of wine with us when your dh has finished his assignment.

Dalrymps · 09/05/2009 11:30

WWAJC - Lol at Anya pointing out piles of dust for you , glad Dylan doen't do that or we'd be here all day!

Thanks in advance for the NI/TAX email, in case you don't have my email it's sweedy 2 uk @ yahoo dot co dot uk obviously without the gaps and dots are .'s

NeedCoffee · 09/05/2009 11:48

Morning all, i take my hat off to you alkl for doing the ironing business ~Ha, I HATE ironing and only do what i have to, funnily enough, i blew my 10 year old iron up yesterday, so Rich bought me a new one last night, its very funky, its purple with lots of buttons and self cleaning, still not doing any more ironing though!

How about 'pressed for time'. can't think of any more lol

LES the Wed 27th May to the Fri or Sat are looking quite good for coaches, will arrive at tea time London St pancreas, wherever that is, does that sound good to you? will only be me and the 2 girlies, you seen any cheapish places to stay near you? xx

Muppet-well done you for revising, and sounds lovely gettinmg Ollie involved with dinner

I'm thinking of doing a uni course in September along with level 3 of my AAT, i think its going to be quite difficult, especially as i have been looking at going back to work-but if i don't do it now, i may never do it, what do you all think? Its a business and management course.

NeedCoffee · 09/05/2009 11:58

wwajc-pmsl at having to sweep up, that is so cute, send her here and she can be on dd1s back as i'm sick to my back teeth of having to point out piles of dust in her room that she is blind to!

Dalrymps · 09/05/2009 12:31

Just had a message from my mum

Just a load of sh*t again. Saying Dylan and I are her main cincern (not true, she is her main concern). Saying my email states I have sent it so we all know where we stand, but they haven't known where they stood for the last 6 years (they have actually, we have all told them several times). Saying they are not going to give up and have been to see the police and the police said they are not doing anything wrong as they haven't broken our property WTF?. I doubt very much they have mentioned that they obtained my address without me wanting them to have it or that they have been leaving harassing answerphone messages or that my mum jammed her foot in the door and screetched through the letter box, if they had of then I think the police might have taken a different view on things !

She said I 'wasn't brought up like this' and that as my email says I haven't done anything wrong, well apart from going along with 'silly people'! She also said about DH 'I don't know if he's got in too deep already' [angry} meaning he has brain washed me AARRGGHH!

She said they are not going to be 'pushed out' and that they would come here again as they still ahve my wedding dress (that she has had several oppertunities to return but chose to keep as a bribery tool) and it is too upsetting to have it in the house so they be coming to return it (just another excuse to turn up here).

They said that my DH throwing Dylans eater egg over the wall when they wouldn't leave was 'disgusting' and that they would 'never forget that' and that they would also 'never forget not being told they had a grandson'.

Then she tried to sound nice and concerned for Dylan by saying she hoped he was ok as he wasn't well last time (meaning when she came up and he had a virus). She then said oh well I think you're just using Dylan as a pawn in your game anyway (meaning she didn't believe he actually was ill when she came here - HE WAS!). She said we were very cruel to do this to him .

I'm so Fcking Sick of this Sht (please excuse the language) WTF is she flippin well on about?! She is actually totally mad, I do believe that. I have NOT been brain washed, I DO NOT use my son as a pawn in my game . I am protecting my son from her utter madness!!! I feel like she just keeps leaving these awful messages to try and drag me in to a 'who did what' discussion and therefore 'have it out' with me. I also feel sick and upset as she keeps saying 'we won't give up' 'we won't be pushed out''the police say we're doing nothing wrong'. These comments make me feel like I have no control over the situation and whether they're in my life or not. Like I just have to sit here and keep taking the abuse and there's nothing I can do

NeedCoffee · 09/05/2009 13:02

awh Dal, she is so manipulative, don't get upset by what she's saying, she is trying everything she possibly can to get you to react, they hate the fact that they have no control over you.

If you wanted to reply or talk to her though, she is actually guilty of theft by not returning your dress, and so i would mention that when you see a solicitor about the injuction.

Dalrymps · 09/05/2009 13:20

I know that really NC, just hard to ignore some of the things she says. I've texted to say that as already stated I do not want her to turn up at my address for any reason, I said I don't want my wedding dress back and she can do with it as she wishes. To be honest it's the least of my worries and I don't need a dress to remind me i'm married. O accepted a long time ago I wouldn't get it back and have photo's anyway.. I'm actually more annoyed that she stole my album of wedding proofs and bottle of champagne our best man bought us on the wedding night . I do have my wedding album though and fil kindly 'took' our proofs from the photographers website and put them all on disk for us so we do have them. She also has a dvd with the wedding speeches on but I can get a copy of that. Oh and she has the top of my cake but she didn't preserve it in anyway and says she thinks it's not edible anymore now anyway... She would still have my wedding certificate as she 'accidentally' put it aside the day after my wedding so I forgot it and I asked my brother who was there to get it for me but she wouldn't let him have it . I only got it back my sneaking in to her bedroom and finding it the last time I was there before we stopped talking for 3 years! God knows if i'd have got it otherwise

She's just called again now, i've answered and put the phone on record. If she's going to keep harassing me she can talk to nobody, see how she likes that.

NeedCoffee · 09/05/2009 13:59

sorry Dal, i don't know what to say, she is such a cow and its great that you are such a good person and a brilliant wife and Mummy despite them. Try and ignore her, maybe leave the house for a walk or go in the garden?

Have to go now, staying at my Dads tonight, he acquired a static caravan for when we go stay(probably because last time, Shannon filled her nappy, then took it off and wiped it everywhere when i was asleep i burnt there work top with the kettle that you put on a hob, and also dry boiled the kettle, so i think they like to keep me out the house!) so i'm taking the girls and Richies Mum and her 2 year old to have some wine frsh air and need to get going!

Hope you all have lovely weekends xxx
