Hi all
I have decided that ITS TIME!!!
I WANT TO PACK UP, RENT OUT THE HOUSE AND TRAVEL! AND I WANT TO DO IT NOW!
There are some things around the house that need to be taken care of first. The main one is rehoming a family member who is very much loved. If you or someone you know might be interested please let me know. I can send pics if interested.
He is a 23 year old Australian Male. He was working full time until he went off to travel Europe for 6 weeks and his manager decided they coped quite well without him so he was no longer needed. Now, he only has his weekend job, which is DJ'ing in Melbourne nightclubs. He also likes to produce a bit of music at home and even has a contract with a label of some sort. He likes to do 'house music'. If you can learn to block it out you will find its not too bad. He is looking for full time work though. He only spends about 3 days a week at home, the rest of the time he is off with his mates.
As with all young men, cleaning is not high on his priority list and neither is paying board or chipping in for bills. After all, he does need to save for his next Europe trip and he would one day like to buy his own home......... so why should he help pay someone else's mortgage when he is trying to save for one of his own.
He has his own car. Its old but it goes. It hasn't had a real service or new tyres in a few years though so I don't know how much longer it will go for so someone living close to public transport would be good.
He doesn't talk much when he is home and he is a bit of a fussy eater so someone patient and flexible is needed.
If you are interested please let me know. You would be doing me and Ug a huge favour. We would really like to travel and he is the main reason we can't go as its hard to rent a house to someone with a room already occupied.
I may also advertise him on Gumtree or similar.
Thanks in advance.
Vicki and Graeme

Have you stolen my son. :laugh: :laugh:
-
i can easily teach you how to change the locks on the house if you like
-
throw him on gumtree, if he is lucky he may get a trip to nigeria
-
Have you stolen my son. :laugh: :laugh:
YES!!! YES!! I am so very sorry. PM me your address and I will return him immediately. Or you can send the police to pick him up. But probably tomorrow... He isn't here right now.
-
Just change the locks when he goes out one day.
At 23 years of age and being a male, he should work it all out for himself within the week.
Oh, once you've changed the locks, start the car and floor it and don't look back.

Change the locks ;D
Wrap his lunch in Melways or Perthways
Put up the " For Rent " signs .
Don't feed him & he will go somewhere else
Sell him for Medical Experiments , he will get used to that strange metallic taste in his mouth & the wire under the scalp
Change the mobile number , always call from a phone box then move .
Don't answer to MUM or DAD , that really stuffs them up .
Offer them money that never arrives to shine them on .
Ring the OP Shop to take away all their kit
What else do you need to know , We can help :cup: :cheers:

Load all his gear into his car leave enough room for the drivers seat to recline and send him on his way... He'll sort himself out soon enough ..

If only it were that easy. He works as an apprentice so he never has any spare money except for computer games, Mcdonalds, HJ's and pizza. I just serviced his car (Avalon) for him a a few weeks ago. I paid for the filters and the oil and he watched me get dirty ??? Noticed his tyres are shot and he needs a wheel alignment. I have booked him in at a mates business this Saturday, he is looking after me, 4 tyres and a wheel alignment $365. Oh yeah, just paid the rego on his car a couple of months ago. Paying for his dog to be desexed this Saturday, paid his TAFE fees this morning. The list goes on. Kids, they are expensive little toys to own.
-
I Paying for his dog to be desexed this Saturday,
Havn't heard it called that before, normally refered to as a vasectomy, maybe you it has a different name down south!
Good idea though, if he can't pay for the other stuff then protection won't be high on the list
-
Does she have a boat ? if so, what condition is it in ? :angel:
And does it have a motor

My son is now 27 and 'almost' living full-time with his girlfriend. He still drops off his washing and pops in for a meal at least once a week. God love his mum, she's a trooper and does everything he asks.
He can talk under water with a mouth full of marbles and never shuts up, but I miss him dearly. He's my mate and best friend, apart from the missus that is.

Can't live with them....can't live without them. My kids are still young but we have that dilemma every time we send them off for a sleep over. They may do our heads in a fair bit but I miss them to bits when they aren't here.

Do what my mate did; 18th birthday, one backpack, one round the world ticket and 10,000 beer tokens; off they went on the condition they did not return. Reckons it was cheaper than keeping them at home.

I'll sweeten the deal.
I'll throw in a 20years old loving cat . FOR FREE.
It very loving. Doesn't talk back,and eats cheapo no name dry food.

Vic and Ug,
Me thinks you're exhibiting one fatal flaw. You're trying to sort him out.
Sell up, or rent it out. Give him written notice. There's no incentive to go get a job and provide for one's self, like the parental life-line being cut, particularly given that from your opening description, he's not been retrenched, nor does he seem too concerned about the basics of Maslow's Pyramid of Human Needs because you two are meeting them.
