I think you taken wise precautions...just in case...wives are wives. But often their friends and family members try to cajole and influence them to "make mischief". I think you've been sensible.
Divorce & Spouse Moving Out....
- Thread starter Sandyb
- Start date
That and that rather be out shooting I'm spending time with my daughter, which I previously took for granted. making the most of it until the day she moves out, as just don't feel anything towards the soon to be ex-wife.
Yes you need 50:50 custody. Please remember kids are not pawns in a battle and they can and will be manipulated as I have found out. You just need to be there for them. It will change over time and they are also good at playing the situation. What you have to consider is that years down the line there will be combined family events which you and your ex should both attend so its best to fit in with your offspring wishes.
It will eventually turn out fine.

I have also just been though this, 4 false alogations (made specifically to cause me harm as I was an FAC holder)and 8 months till my FAC was returned, she was not even cautioned or talked to regarding her behaviour and waisting police time.
As as an FAC holder be very very cautious, I strongly recommend you store your guns with an RFD ASAP, a woman scorned in a moment of madness is capable of anything and saying anything no matter how well you think you know them.
Guns were stored a couple of weeks back now, she doesn't know, so much so, she asked why I hadn't gone to the club on Sunday, but was back late Saturday night & getting to the safes through her boxes would have been inconvenient. She has no idea they're not here....
Things are looking fine, and if she ever did make false allogations, no one in my family would ever talk to her again, let alone our daughter when she's older.... Will keep away from the house until divorce is sorted. Plenty of time & years to do that, so worth the wait.

Hello Sandy,
Did you get a receipt for the storage of the guns from the RFD?
You might need this as a quick means of proof........

Yep, got receipts for everything, even put my sub 12 ft.lb air rifle in... they’re now in the safes instead of my guns...

Hi. It's a difficult time for you all.
i have been through it.
my advise is that you need to take the long term view, and that means doing what it required to maintain a calm situation for the sake of your daughter. She will no doubt love you both and be very troubled by what's happening.
sorry if that's a leature, but I was given the same advice and whilst it was dificult to do it, I am glad I did.
so..
re your firearms - When I was going through this, I was concerned my ex would make up a tale that I threatened her with them, just to make trouble, so I took the proactive descision to move them to a dealer (informed my police) and left them there until the house was mine and the locks change.
Admitedly some inconvienience, but I slept easy.
re the locks - I'd say don't change them until the house is yours.
I am not a solicitor, but I don't think there's any merit in claiming you need to change them early because of the firearms, because they are locked in a safe. And that's been ok whilst you were together.
As I say, it's a tricky time for you all, good luck.. M.
