Sorry sweetie, I have nothing to share. I have had a sheltered upbringing and I am a really nice girl...


Cmon, even nice girls have secrets DM.


My first brush with the law was stealing a Mars Bar 3 pack from "Crazy Prices" supermarket in Northern Ireland - the "in store dectective" said - "we may have crazy prices Son but the sweets are not bloody free" - he promptly called the friendly/legendary Royal Ulster Constabulary who took me home and recommended to my Dad that I got "a damn good thrashing". So much for community policing in the late 1970s.

My Dad, credit where it is due, did not thrash me - in fact I managed to convince him I was driven to shoplift due to having had less pocket money than all my friends and managed to generate a pocket money increase from the whole debacle :)


I'm wondering if this son/dad pocket money negotiation was the highlight of my finacial negotiation achievements as I have never had quite the same success on pay review discussions, but then the COO is not may Dad.

I doubt it legal as we moved to forest hill when I was 5. If your boyfriend was the owner of the ginger cat that I painted black stripes on with my mums nail paint to make it look like a tiger then your boyfriend will defianetly remember me. I was a very naughty cub.

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.  
    • I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
