Yeah it's a pain getting to Bolton from Cambridge. I thought moving further that way would be easier but it's quicker driving or getting the train from South London.

Although its got a.lot better on the train, there is a fast services from King's Cross but it's not cheap. 

But if you live more than a certain amount of miles from your kids and you have regular contact you get money off with the CSA so you can still have regular contact. For me it's about £60 a month off what I have to pay.

 

We’ve never done it through the CSA but doing the calculator I’d be paying another £70 a month compared to what I’m paying now (which was actually an over-calculation based on how many nights he’s usually with us) so neither here or there really.

im not talking Friday afternoon 

Taken him out for his tea tonight (bumped in to Mr Grey, oddly enough) and just dropped him off ahead of the move tomorrow 💔

His cheeky cunt mother text me while we were in the restaurant asking what time we were dropping him off. Let us have our time FFS. T’lad was on good form at least, particularly having seen his mates in the afternoon, and even got to see his cousin and my brother when they nipped in to the restaurant for a takeaway. 

Sorry to hear this Matt. I appreciate this is of no use but I sit on the other side having step kids live with me and I wouldn’t dream of leaving the area until they are adults as for me that’s the situation you inherit.

Hope all works out for you in the end.

Fantastic journalism eh 👏

Screenshot of the Daily Mail website, with the headline: "UK builders go WOKE: Study finds three quarters of tradesmen discuss their feelings with colleagues while two thirds shun the fried breakfasts and nearly half say they are history buffs"

The Daily Mail plumbs new depths.

Who the fuckery reads their shite?

Looking at who posts links to their stories would be a start as to its readership. 

I've decided now what makes my mood shit. Men. I attract dickheads it seems.

A lot of people apparently. Saw this article during a mental health stigma workshop at work. 

Bring us back to the good old days of when men had a fry up every day and boxed up all their feelings. Love that you're now a snowflake if you open up to someone.

My Mrs is fucking mental. 

Pretty convinced she's developed OCD (but not the cleanliness or tidyness type) and currently hates her job so talks of quitting work every day to start a shop selling scented candles or some shit. 

It's fucking ace.

So it's not even that.... 

Or maybe it's that....

Same here. 

It's fucking draining. Papping on about her woes whilst I'm trying to do battlenips...

 

Have a fucking day off love. 

My mrs is exactly the same, they never seem to just quit and go and open the artisan clothes hanger shop or just work at fucking Tesco though.

the anchors that keep us grounded also weigh us down

I can't beleive depression still exists

Ironically if I see a "live, laugh, love" type post i get angry, contemptuous and depressed 

Thinking about it i might get a poster that says "anger, contempt, depression" in a curly fun font printed on a5 and hang it up in my bathroom
