Tell youre ex misus you've had a £10k wage cut!!!

Today.
I had to tell my ex misus that as I had been given the wonderful new year gift of a £10k wage cut this would effect the child maintenance by a whopping £150 per month in a downwards direction.
suggestions to keep it the same included
1.Get a second job to pay her.
2.Move out of my 2 bedroom flat and rent a room.Wouldn't matter about the kids not seeing me every other weekend.
3.If i didn't pay it she would no longer do any pick ups or drop offs as she couldn't afford the petrol.
4.To pay her out of the £90k divorce settlement she gave me.(Newsflash i earnt it all and she kept £300k.)After her affair!!!

And people find it offensive that I refer to it as the ex harridan!!!!

She loves me really!!!!

Hope you told her where to go with her suggestions! Knowing you I'm sure you politely rebuked her ideas

Hi Haway,

Its a great word Harridan isn't it! I love it!

What did she say when you told her?

Given the crap news that your wages will drop so bloody much & thinks its great you are keeping a good sense of humour about it all.

I doubt your ex is.

Just asking. Isn't there a variation clause that will cover you for this type of financial problem allow you to alter the maintenance payemnt downwards?

I am grossly offended with the use of that vulgar word describing your poor ex missus Pete!

I would expect she will make it up on tax credits anyway, my ex is getting a whopping amount from them.

BTW, i had to tell my ex that i was being paid off and all i had to give her was 20 quid a month!

I think that it is very irrespnsible to deprive his ex of income. He should get on a plane to India and sell a kidney immediatelly.
I am surprised that the courts don't order all men to do this.

No that is not nearly enough. A kidney and a pair of t...icles at the least!

The kidney idea is all well and good James but supposing you got divorced again in x number of years?
