    Good excuse to get a new bed.
    "Break it in"
    Then thank her. :twisted:
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    Did she leave you the bricks and mortar?

    Surely the fact that marital bed has gone is a good thing...

    That's the good thing about divorce - you no longer have to try to understand :D

    I got "divorced" once and was relieved when she put all my stuff in bin bags. I just thought it saved me a load of hassle in collecting my stuff!

    ouch. But you didnt want to keep that bed, anyway! Beds are very personal, spend a long time in there. Wouldnt want to keep a tainted bed.

    An ex-SIL took the light fittings from the walls and ceilings (wiring on show) only left the wardrobes cos they were built in and she couldn't dismantle them in time.

    Mine took the plugs off my hifi equipment - put the party back nearly half an hour that did.

    when I split with my ex and left, by the time I went back two days later to pick up the rest of my stuff he had taken all of my referee kit (over £300 worth), my new road bike (the b*****d!) and my first edition Harry Potter books :cry:

    What happened to Londondol's post that resurrected this thread? Was my earlier guess correct? Do I win a prize?

    Nevermind your bed mate, I posted a thread on here yesterday and that's gone. I'd like to know where that's gone and why!

    You would think so. He did it out of spite firstly but then later on decided that he was going to give it to his new girlfriends son :evil:

    Sister-in-law. She didn't ask the boyfriend to help her I guess and bruv was supposed to be working long hours that day. Fortunately his neighbour phoned to let him know what was going on so he arrived with enough time to change the locks.

    I sometimes wonder why y'all get married.
    When I've been to someone's third wedding it get's a bit - well - How long is this one going to last ?
    </smug>
    Then I guess you don't have to get married to have a messy breakup.

    Some of our friends have wandered arround a bit, and then settled down with folk they've known for thirty years. And everyone who knew them must have thought - you obviously got on well thirty years ago, so why has it taken so long ?

    Because deep down, they thought that they should/could have done 'better'. ;)
