Sorry, loads of x-posts there!! Blush

MRsC please try and play by the rules. Be the one who makes him look like the twat he is. I know you don't need this shit and there are only so many last straws you can handle, but you can do this. Just think of him having his dick slammed in the nearest door - because it will be. Don't give him any ammunition. You've had really good advice here, be strong and go with it.

TheFormidableMrsC · 24/03/2015 21:58

Thanks everybody and Teapot and Pointy for recent contributions. I take on board everything you say but I can't deal with it tonight at all. I am utterly battered. Am keeping up appearances for public and kids, that will do. Other than that...

Just as an aside, having lied to his mother that he no longer has online banking, money has mysteriously appeared in my bank account. He doesn't realise this is no longer about the money. I have had enough.

AcrossthePond55 · 24/03/2015 22:06

Poor you. It's just like being pulled every which way. All I can say is that you must try to keep things separated. You don't have to facilitate contact, but I think you may need to allow it for now. But let him do all the logistics and present you with a proposal which either is or is not convenient for YOU.

The cheque thing was very childish of him. But don't let him get to you or try to make you do something not in your best interest. You know that's what they're trying to do.

Things are off kilter here. My brother has fallen off the wagon, hard. He's in rehab now. Breaks my heart, he really hates himself when he falls. Just say a prayer or think a good thought for him. He's a lovely man and so devoted to our mother.

TheFormidableMrsC · 24/03/2015 22:56

Across thanks for posting my love, I just wanted to say that I am so sorry to hear about your brother and cannot begin to imagine how tough that situation is for you all. He mustn't hate himself, it's just being ill, so glad he is getting treatment. He is so lucky to have you behind him. Prayers and good thoughts are there in spades for him, I am sure not just from me, but all our lovely friends on this thread and beyond...sending lots of love xx

It always gets silly extremis just before a hearing. Will bring pineapple tomorrow.

May offer judge a slice. That'll flummox everyone in the room.

I'll walk with you over the finishing post. xx

Izzie595 · 25/03/2015 00:46

I can't deal with it tonight at all

Nothing practical to say. Just, you have been under incredible strain through no fault of your own, for a very long time. Just a big big hug. I've not done the financials and kids stuff, but I can still relate to "I have had enough".

I hope you are fast asleep now. Best place. Xx

whyMe2014 · 25/03/2015 00:46

Just lurking....best of luck for court. You can do it. Especially with WWK with you. xx

TheFormidableMrsC · 25/03/2015 11:21

Thanks everybody for posts and good wishes. I have in fact reinstated contact given it is (I am told by everybody) the "right" thing to do. Let's hope that comes to pass. My little boy has been through enough. I have made it clear that I do not want him to have contact with OW and H has stated he is putting in an application to court (again)...which will be a whole new thread entirely...WWK, can't wait to see you. Have just put clean sheets on your bed x

pointythings · 25/03/2015 16:31

What are you going to do with the pineapple, WWK? Insert it, I hope...

iwashappy · 25/03/2015 17:08

Good luck for tomorrow, hope it goes well. xx

TheFormidableMrsC · 25/03/2015 17:13

WWK IS IN DA HOUSE.....Grin

Bogeyface · 25/03/2015 17:15

I thought I felt a tremor in the force!

Pauline, be afraid, be very afraid........ :o

iwashappy · 25/03/2015 17:16

Hello Mother Hope you remembered the pineapples.

Notabeararaccoon · 25/03/2015 17:17

Good luck tomorrow MrsC, will be thinking of you. Xxx

Finally remembered my MN password Blush
Hi MrsC and WWK l am so glad the pair of you are going to face the gruesome twosome tomorrow (if you have not partaking in too much vino tonight).That pair don't have a hope in hell of making it out of court alive with the pair of you as opposition.
Good luck tomorrow x

bobs123 · 25/03/2015 18:14

Good luck tomorrow "MrsC" . Hope you're feeling better prepped now that "WWK" is there. Will be thinking of you Smile

TheFormidableMrsC · 25/03/2015 18:15

That picture is a pineapple I have to say....never going to make it as an award winning photographer!!

Inlectorecumbit...bless you! So nice to see you here! No wine for us tonight, we are on tea/green tea and WWK is currently steaming through bundles and coming up with all sorts that the common or garden self-repper may have "overlooked"...she's good!

inlectorecumbit · 25/03/2015 18:26

WWK is currently steaming that got me worried for a moment. Steaming=pissed as a fart=drunk in Scottish lingo
So glad she is with you.Keep the wine for tomorrow xxx

TheFormidableMrsC · 25/03/2015 19:28

Ha ha, I can't say we won't both be steaming tomorrow night (within reason)....anyway, we have a very firm plan and a way forward. Lots of typing and printing to be done tonight. Wine can wait! :-)

TheMShip · 25/03/2015 20:11

Have a fun evening together, you fab ladies Brew

You know everyone here will be cheering for you tomorrow!

Izzie595 · 25/03/2015 20:42

The best of luck to both of you. Have a productive night, a successful day tomorrow, and a thoroughly deserved glass or three tomorrow evening

strong123 · 25/03/2015 21:20

Best of luck for tomorrow xx

WellWhoKnew · 25/03/2015 22:29

Hello - all going well in Chez MrsC: she's written a lovely "position statement" ready for court, which I can confirm is currently merely updating her legal bundle over an ironing board, cunningly observed by a pineapple.

She claims she's about to hit the wine and then the sack. The voice of reason that is WWK, suggested drinking the wine, and sleeping it off in her bed, like a normal person does.

She's going to be fine...
