No I'm not married to one I just know someone who is.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

Originally posted by KyajaeAny male contractors (or for that matter, lesbian contractors, equal ops and all that cr@p) have this problem where the money coming in seems like a shopper's charter when in reality it's there to cover the lean periods. Any advice on how to tackle this minor inconvenience in one's financial planning.

Get rid of credit/debit cards and use cash only when shopping.
Also if you own a ltd, tell her the directors have cut your wages in half ,
then keep this amount to cover the lean periods.

Just enjoy it! Any decent contractor's other half should be dressed in a fur, AP undies, and a nice pair of Louboutins. Surely you don't want her going around wearing joggy bottoms and a fleece? Yuk!Comment
