My son who takes home £300 a week says he needs all his money to pay his bills! His girlfriend also stays at our house every night! I do all his washing, ironing cooking, make his packed lunch etc and think he is now taking the mick. Would it be too extreme to ask him to pay up or leave? It wouldn't be quite so bad but he takes a £100 out every Saturday night!!!

Iknw we should not do it, but I bet most of us are guilty of using little white lies to get out of avoiding certain family members and rekatives. My children have been know to come down with quite a few last minute tummy bugs! Yes - I know, I am a terribkle person - LOL. Sometime however a pre arranged meeting looms and you realise that under no circumstances can you face it, there is something better on TV, housework calls, you have some shopping you really need instead, you just don't want to make that visit. Come on, give me a laugh, ease my conscience, share with me!!

I think the area that I live in could be alot safer but im near family, shops and schools so I like it.

Pepa is the name of my dog, she was abandoned three years ago, you can see her in the picture. I wish I had more time to be able to have another pet.
