I don’t think it’s too difficult. The sister looking after the mum should just tell the sibling acting the c**t that for reasons of long term financial planning she will need to start charging for time worked as a carer, and send the c**t a bill for their share of everything that has been done so far.

7/10 Wednesday.

More fool them. Short term gain but long term damage. From your perspective it’s perhaps a good thing that you can put their name in the drawer marked “c**t”.

Got a few grand back when my old man popped his clogs 6 years ago, what little there was was split evenly between me and my older brother. Paid off the credit card. When my old dear and stepdad go, whatever there is will be split between 6 of us, I imagine. Whatever the case it’s really not worth falling out with folk over money at times like these. Unless someone is quite obviously trying to rip the rest of you off, you just accept your lot and get on with life. There was a story in the press recently about some old boy who changed his will in his latter years and left virtually everything to only one of his grandkids, on the basis that none of the rest of them ever bothered their arse to visit him. The rest of them were none too happy and were taking legal action. In cases like that, f**k them, the old c**t accumulated that wealth, it’s up to him where it goes. Personally, if it was up to me, I’d set inheritance tax at 100%, and apply significant penalties for anyone trying to get round it. Sure, it would affect a lot of people who don’t have much, but it would affect those with plenty far more.

I lived more or less upstairs from the Willow for a while about 20 years ago. The variety of punter it attracted was quite something.

I don’t work at that level, as my wage slip will testify.

Not sure what to make of that article, other than it was mostly shite. As for the bold Sydney, good looking lassie, sure, but bordering on the “generic blonde with competitive advantage”. The Liz Hurley thread offers more.

8/10 Thursday.

The amount involved I wrote off at the time, not that it was particularly significant in the grand scheme of things. I done it with the expectancy of losing most of it. The 10k figure I have decided on will basically cover some stuff I want done at home and the likely tax bill I will get from the transaction in the first place. This stuff is starting to get too close to regulation for me to stay involved, so now happy to take what I can get before it becomes a headache at work.

Hopefully hit the hundred grand point soon. Wish I’d invested more than beer money when I bought what I have. Will punt most of it at the point mentioned above which will put me about 10 grand up no matter what happens thereafter. The even smaller bit that remains I’ll keep just in case.

On an hour before it opened, only got through 15 minutes ago and f**k all left. Settle for the Germany tickets I have I guess, still annoyed at spending 390 Euros on them though.
