Monkeys Fist 45764 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Aye, take care Craig, have a beverage and be there for the kids, about all you can do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6949 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Cheers gents. It's fucking awful knowing there's fuck all you can do. And bizarrely I've found myself bending over backwards to offer all help I can to my ex. I guess it's partly due to having been through that myself, partly that it directly affects my kids and the rest that I suppose I'm a decent person. Beverage has been had. The boy, his mates and I are having a drunken giggle. I feel the need for a blow-out coming up though. No doubt will be a messy one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catmag 337 Posted October 14, 2022 Author Share Posted October 14, 2022 It’s going to be rough but just be there. You’ve been there yourself so you know that there’s nothing that will make it hurt less. Keep doing what you’re doing - you’ve got this. And take care of yourself too x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 24153 Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 (edited) Pretty pissed off. Trying to sort out my Dad's affairs, and need to sell his mobility scooter. Put an ad up on Gum Tree, they removed it. Put it up again, again removed. In their T&Cs they say they will email the reason why. They didn't. I'm totally scoobied as to the reason. Managed to navigate the website and send a query off to them. Look at the reply the cheeky fucker emailed me back. The cunts. I want now to organise a toontastic boycott of Gum Tree, including @Christmas Tree , to bankrupt the bastards. Thanks for helping me out here. 👍 Oh, and if anyone wants to buy a second hand mobility scooter, PM me. Strangely enough I'm thinking of @Christmas Tree again here.

Surreymag 71 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Take it to Benidorm every fucker has them if if they don’t need them. It’s hilarious watching them going along bit dangerous at times due to how people use them. They have double ones as well🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
