  1. I have only read what was quoted of TX Rover but copious studies have shown that the best outcome for children of seperated couples is shared equally split with set routines.

    The adjustment of any routine to children, with or without disabilities is unsettling and has to be carefully managed. Once seperate then ideally you have to live life making them the first priority and consideration, not that that always happens.

    However, I'd also not be taking advice from someone who's every post seems be AI generated.

    I actually read this twice, as felt sure I'd missed some key aspect.

    Force somebody to take glimepiride, douse them in caustic fluid, leave them dead for days, they end-up a vegetable... sentences 7 years 9 months... 18 months suspended... 6 months suspended.

    WTAF?


    Huddersfield: Family members jailed after abusing son's wife - BBC News

    Huddersfield: a man and his parents have been jailed after a court heard his wife was forced to take medication and doused with a corrosive substance.

    Ambreen Fatima Sheikh suffered life-limiting injuries due to their abuse. The court heard Ms Sheikh was "tricked or forced" into taking the anti-diabetes drug glimepiride, which induced catastrophic brain injury, in 2015 after she was brought to the UK from Pakistan following a 2014 arranged marriage. She was also doused in a caustic substance, thought to be a cleaning fluid, at the family's home in Clara Steet, Huddersfield, in the days prior to her hospital admission in August 2015. There was a two to three-day delay between Ms Sheikh falling unconscious and the family calling an ambulance.

    It was initially thought she would die but she began to breathe for herself when her ventilator was turned off in hospital. Prosecutors said she only survives by being fed through a tube and will eventually die as a consequence of what happened to her. Now 39, her injuries have left her in a persistent vegetative state from which she will never recover, the court heard.

    "It is difficult to imagine a more serious injury short of death," Mrs Justice Lambert remarked.

     Ms Sheikh was said to be in good health before her collapse and there is evidence she was a teacher in Pakistan.  One witness said she was "intelligent, bright, ambitious and happy-go-lucky" before she moved to the UK. The trial heard that soon after Ms Sheikh arrived in the UK the family became unhappy with her housework and chores.

    None of the family gave evidence in court and the judge said she could not say for sure when the abuse began. Asgar Sheikh, 31, was jailed for seven years and nine months at Leeds Crown Court along with his father, Khalid, 55, and mother, Shabnam, 52. Asgar, Shabnam and Shagufa were also found guilty of doing an act intending to pervert the course of justice. Asgar, Khalid, Shabnam, Shagufa and Asgar's brother Sakalayne Sheikh were found guilty of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice. Sakalayne, 25, was given a six-month sentence, suspended for two years, and his sister, Shagufa, 29, was given an 18-month sentence, also suspended for two years.

    I saw this and sent it to a friend who's a PF (Scottish obv different) asking how the f**k it wasn't attempted murder. It's horrific.

    I parked in Stirling today. The ticket machine was broken. Called Ringgo, and got an automated message saying to download an app.

    Decided to chance it. Didn't pay, and got no ticket. 

    I'd seen the wardens lurking so they must have spotted the car heading up to park circus and pretty much followed it round.

  4. I've not been to a game in a long time so my musings are from what I read here and dad.

    Mackay had lost dressing room, Adams came in and made an arse of handling the press and chucked players under buses then reversed bus over them.

    Don's a liked figure at the club (to best my knowledge) I think we have to write the season off, if we don't drop automatically likely playoffs. That isn't going to be on Don though.

    If Don can start to get the players heads up and working for the jersey then that wouldn't be a bad outcome whatever league we are in. 

    Whoever's doing the scouting needs fired though. It's always going be tough attract young lads to Dingwall, I left the Highlands at 18 and have no wish go back.

    If you can, take some time to enjoy yourself. Do somethings that are just for you that maybe you’ve not been able to as a husband and a dad the past few years. That’s what I’d do anyway. 

    Your situation is one I find myself fearing a little bit (even before you shared your story). Just that life, work and kids will slowly erode a marriage away until the point you realise it’s gone. My wife and I are very happy just now and talking about a 2nd bairn so sounds silly but I reckon it can creep up on you. 

    I totally get what you’re feeling though, I can’t think for a second what I’d do as a single man at this point. Probably just be tragic and throw myself at my career. 

    To read you're considering another kid is brilliant news and hopefully it's more enjoyable this time.

    Signed my marriage away today. Pretty fucking surreal tbh. Still not even sure why we did it but have certainly reached the point of acceptance. Fingers crossed now only 3 or 4 weeks till we're in seperate houses, but thats the scary bit in my mind.... What does life look like after that. I've so much in the past few weeks to try an dmake sure it all happens so she can get the house she wants that I havent permitted myself to let all that out.... I dont want to be skint or lonely.... I suppose I can work on the second one myself. Time will tell for the first!

    I'm not going to lie, the first few Thursdays I left the kids at nursery I sat in the hall and cried. Ordered dominos pizza and ice cream and cried some more as I missed them. The youngest was 18 months (she was 11 yesterday).

    But in time it came to Thursdays and I was pleased of the break! I found Saturdays a struggle, I couldn't justify the cost of football (I was on benefits and paying my ex money-long story always get a lawyer quickly!) and my friends are married so was family time.

    Once the spring came, I got to know the neighbours in the tenanment block better in garden on nice days. 

    You'll get into a new routine plus you're on the to do list now too 🤣

    They are currently around the 5kg mark. The vet said they would be about Lab size.

    Sadie was 2.5kg couple weeks ago. She's managed a month without seeing vet but in on Monday for weigh in with nurse. I think she'll be a smaller standard daschund. I laugh when people ask if she standard or mini as not like they're shadow sized 🤣

    Shame. you aren't keeping one I'd liked to have seen the grown up end product!

    We've been experimenting with leaving Millie loose when we've been going out. Decided to try her in the living room with Morse today and left a trailcam on top of the cabinet to review any hilarity on our return.

    Literally the first video after we drive away, right in front of the camera...

    Good lad Morse!

    Haha, funny you say that. We have a person coming from Skye in a couple of hours to collect the white one!

    They're more the size of dog I like. I do love our hamster of havoc though and her personality is huge.

    Is that rug a family heirloom?

    That's not an apple turnover. I'm thinking roll 'n sausage or bacon. Looks like brown sauce on the plate.

    It's a roll 'n' link with tomato sauce. Each dog had also had a link too.

    Tbf, everything has moved along at about the correct pace until this. It'd the fact that they have say and done absolute jack shit about it that bothers me. Iv said to them repeatedly, anything I can do to help things along, please tell me. It turns out, there was something I could do, and having been told about it, had done about 1.5 minutes later. 

    The obvious looming possibility here is that this final part drags on too long, meaning I can't secure the funds needed to buy her out in time for her to fulfill the (ill advised) bid she has in for a house, and her purchase will then fall through. It's an utter fucking shambles, and not of my making either, but I'm the one wearing all the fucking pressure over it. 

    Bit ranty tbf, but helpful all the same. Venting it here prevents me from the no doubt less than constructive act of giving my solicitor both barrels....

    If she has bought a house before you've had time to release the funds then hell mend her. I know that doesn't help you but she needs shoulder some blame here. You'll end up with the kick back as all that's wrong if it falls through.
