This thread is well over the 20 pages limit now.

Anyone who feels the urge to do so can start a replacement.

The current Mrs BSG-75…..etc etc

I see http://www.mocgb.net/forums/images/smilies/yahoo/39.gif , once again I can recommend The Strangelove plan, this would involve the “If you really want to keep this amicable” approach.
This means calling the shortly to be Ex Mrs BSG & putting your views across in the harshest possible manner, offering helpful advice on getting her head & a$$ wired together.

Telling her that if she keeps this behaviour up, you’ll have to review the current arrangement & make adjustments as required, to ensure that the children are looked after in an appropriate fashion.

Firm but fair BSG, firm but fair……

So, the grass is not always as green on the other side as you think my friend. ……….;)I did allude to the situation not being quite as rosy as you thought in an earlier post.:)

yes your right i cant write the new pm off just yet but didn’t he just give yet more money we can ill afford to another country?

it is and isn’t the reason i am leaving for the states, speaking further to the new employer things are not so rosey there either. and there is no guarentee of being paid, so i may just take a couple of months there as honeymoon and test the water. i certainly dont wish to jump from the frying pan so to speak.

Ah, now I am with you – a you tube classic! However I think I would not yet compare our current PM, who has been in office for but a few months heading a coalition with a slim majority with an PM and ex- Chancellor of 13 years of office behind him and with 3 elections giving his party solid majorities. Which is the point Daniel Hannan was making, of course. And which is why you are leaving us for the US.

i was watching an old eu meeting on youtube where gordon brown got told he can’t borrow any more from the EU, he can not repay a debt with a debt he was told, and it was made clear (at the time) just how far in debt this island is. not long after that i think he sent 7 billion or 70 billion to a country that just had a disaster. now the new PM whatever he is called is no better.

why dont we have some one in power that knows what they are doing? this country makes me swear daily.

Your first paragraph is confusing – can you clarify?

Why is it that people keep trying to convince me to do things I don’t want to do at the moment??

Does the word “No” not mean exactly that wherever it is you come from?! 😡

I’ll second that last thought! Nothing should have been “ring-fenced” least of all overseas aid.

Listening to the woes of poor old Shrek Waynetta Rooney and how he wants to leave MU (probably for more money), awwwwwwww diddums, while at the same time the news of thousands of servicemen and woman and civilan workers being made redundant, bases being closed, local economies affected under the defence review…

How about pulling the plug on the billions we send abroad in overseas aid, before pulling the plug on out defence spending…..

Fecking Fuming…..

The divorce is just a part of it, isn’t it? Now you have the tensions of co-parenting with the children split between you. A great chum of mine had a bad time of it but others have managed to work it out well. Fingers crossed it’s early days….:)

The current Mrs BSG-75….. has kids over hers for a “sleep over” on saturday, lets them stay up Sunday past 10:30, sends kids to after school club on monday evening, then my lad has scouts. so muggins here gets a zombie to stay for a couple of days who has seemingly had something less than 20 hrs kip in 3 nights, plus a busy schedule of clubs etc.

sent home from school all sick and floppy, falls asleep as soon as he is home….

she has to let them do everything they ask as her dad never let her do anything….. but doesn’t see that nippers need “down time” and sleep and rest….

no not at all. both british,

i’m one of the best 3000gt mechanic/specialists in the world who are capable of fualt finding in a heartbeat and repairing said cars well within a dealer time scale, indeed i can cut dealer times to a quater.

companies in the states reconise this and want me with them. this company is no exception.

the US is rapidly coming out of recession by having or rebuilding industry. something this country lacks now its all been sold abroad, we only have a few major manufacturers, so we buy in more than we export. its going to take a while for the UK to come out of this. alot longer than usual.

Presumably the only reason you are welcome there in a period of recession and high unemployment in the US is because your wife to be is a US citizen.

its double what a mechanic gets over here. see i could go work in a garage/dealer and earn what 21k max? ok its not double but its 56k USD PA, in concord NC so thats real good money because its fairly cheap to live there.

i could work for a guy called Ray up in Long Island earn $30 ph but its heavy living costs there.

i been swinging spanners since i was 8, i had a couple of years laps when i went operating excavators just for a change, i was earning good money but its mundane work. i prefer fixing things than anything els.

It turns the entire basis of gainful employment on its head. An individual works and received remuneration for doing so. End of story until the state decides it will take a percentage of the money to provide services everyone can use.

The proposal effectively says that the state takes all the remuneration before distributing a percentage of it to the workers. I suppose it comes close to the Marxist doctrine whereby we all work for the state anyway.

What the government should be doing, of course, is hugely simplifying the entire tax system so that it works smoothly.

i’m unemployed but i do not claim, the reason is i paid my stamp all the time i worked from being 16. i’m now 39 i been unemployed for a while about a year. the government should work it the same way the americans do. if your not a citizen you get nothing you get sent home. you can not even own a car without a green card and state licence.
here anyone is welcome to come buy a car and claim benefits moreso if you contributed nothing.

i may have paid my stamps since i was 16 but if i cant do it on my own i will not ask for help. i asked once and got refused. i will not ask again.

i get married on 30th this month then go back to the states to a well paid job, and hopefully in time become a US citizen, to me this country has gone.

so this country makes me swaer on a daily basis lol
