Good afternoon little men!

I think you both are still at school playing your little hearts out and learning lots….

I thought I would write you both now as I have been in front of my computer since about 6am, I am having trouble on one of my tasks getting the required info but will try again tomorrow , my email inbox is up to date at least after yesterday….so much for trying to take it easy as a full time Dad ….maybe once this current project is done things will be a little bit more relaxed….let’s hope so….

O before I forget , we got some directions from the Court , they have still not answered my questions but have given permission for the full psychological report to be released not just my part , so I am sure the “other” part will make for some amusing reading for people…..to see what some people have said and claimed…….

I emailed the Judge also this morning to ask how much does she earn if she can afford to pay 1500 pound for two hours contact , will be interesting to hear what she says , keeping in mind she said it will cost 90 pounds a hour…..the funny thing here is boys the person who wants the contact supervised it seems under UK law has to pay for this service , so I hope your care giver has been saving her benefits seeing that she is not willing to agree to normal contact ….least she will have to use her own or I guess her spokes persons chq book for this going forward….. Remember what I told you both about monkeys left alone with enough rope ……

We have had such strange weather here the last couple of days ,it’s dark overcast and humid , feels like Durban if I am honest…. We have had lots of rain but I think a lot more is required to rescue the farmers and livestock in some parts of the Country…..

I see your blog is going nuts also today it at 4800 hits, as you both would have seen we are also getting more and more comments , I think it is the greatest compliment as a blogger if you get comments , positive or negative as this means people care enough to take the time out of their day to firstly read your blog and then secondly to comment , I must say I am shocked at the level of traffic your story is getting……just shows you how much people care and how relevant the posts and topics are……I have told you both before we 3 are not alone in this…..

Well little muppets I hope you both will also again have a fantastic day at school tomorrow , end of yet another week of not knowing how you are , what you are doing and if you are safe and happy…..breaks my heart…..

As always pals I will see you both later tonight under our big old green tree in dream land , bringing you both double bear cuddles tonight…..

Night , night little men , happy dreams of fun school days and all your little friends ……

Love you both extra TTTtttHhhhhhhissssssss much and miss you both double that and more …..

Love you little men….

Dad xx

Dear Mr Ferreira

Re: Agreement for the provision of Contact Services for Oand OFerreira and Mr Phill Ferreira

Further to our discussions with Becky Butterfield (Children’s Solicitor) I confirm that Core Assets Contact Services will undertake supervised contact to be funded by Mr Phill Ferreira.

Services to be provided

The programme will be co-ordinated by Chiz Onuora (Core Assets Contact Co-ordinator) who can be contacted at Liverpool office, chiz.onuora@coreassets.com or 0151 733 5790.

Agreed provisions

• Payments must be received two weeks in advance of the Pre-Contact Assessment/Contact Agreement Meeting, and two weeks before the commencement of each group of four contact sessions. Payments can be made by cheque payable to Core Assets Children’s Services or credit/debit card as detailed on the attached Confirmation of Agreement. A receipt will be provided by Core Assets Children’s Services.
• The service will be reviewed after the fourth contact session.  Core Assets staff will provide a report for that review, and parents and children will be invited to contribute.

Fees for the Services

Charges are normally reviewed on 1^st April annually.  Any increases will be notified in advance. Payment for each group of six contact sessions must be received before a Contact Agreement Meeting can be arranged.  Contact sessions will only take place once payment has cleared.

Cancellations

Core Assets Contact Services appreciates that due to the nature of work with children/young people and their families, there is a chance of last minute cancellations and events beyond the Funding Parent’s control. Core Assets Contact Services will operate in a fair and reasonable manner in regard to cancellations and deal with each cancellation or alteration on a case by case basis. No fee will be incurred if at least 24 hours notice is provided. Core Assets Contact Services will aim to ensure that staff are available to undertake the programme but where this is not possible (e.g. due to staff illness) no charges will be made or alternative dates will be agreed with the Funding Parent.

Either party may cancel this agreement at any time by giving 7 days written notice to the other party.

The Funding Parent undertakes to fully comply with the terms of the Core Assets Contact Agreement which will be drawn up at the Agreement Meeting.  Failure to do so will result in the contact session being ended immediately.  If the failure is serious or persistent, Core Assets Contact Services will terminate this contract by written notice to the Funding Parent, and will refund payments received for future planned sessions.

Confidentiality

Due to the nature of work and services carried out by Core Assets Contact Services, all information pertaining to children and young people and their families will be treated with the utmost confidentiality and only shared with those persons directly involved in the cases. Core Assets Contact Services operates a highly secure database to deal with each individual child / young person or family case. The Funding Parent shall treat any information received from Core Assets Contact Services as confidential. Core Assets Contact Services adheres to the legislation surrounding Data Protection and is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office.

Dispute and Complaints Process

Core Assets Contact Services has a clear process for complaints which will be provided at the Contact Agreement Meeting and can be made available at any other time on request. We encourage parents to highlight any areas of concern as soon as they arise, so that they can be addressed before reaching formal complaints procedures if possible.

Insurance / Indemnity / Liability

Core Assets Contact Services confirms that it has substantial professional indemnity and public / employers liability insurance for the manner of services being delivered and will maintain this whilst engaged with work under this agreement. Both Core Assets Contact Services and the Funding Parent agree that neither party shall be liable to the other for any indirect or consequential loss however caused. Nothing in this letter attempts to exclude either party’s liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

Events outside Core Assets Contact Services’ control

In the event of any unforeseen circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Core Assets Contact Services, for example (including but not limited to), severe weather conditions, Core Assets Contact Services will not be liable for any losses of the Funding Parent caused by such events. Core Assets Contact Services will endeavour to work with the parent to find alternative dates that meet their needs.

This letter constitutes an agreement between Core Assets Contact Services and you as the Funding Parent, and overrides any previous or alternative agreement.  Should you wish to proceed in accordance with the above terms, please sign and return the attached Confirmation of Agreement

Yours sincerely

A good read ….

This is very sad…..

Good afternoon little men!

Hope you both are having a very good fun day !

I got the quote from Corrassets for the contact , tried to copy it to post it for you but I need to scan it, it seems , the cost is 2000 pounds for 4 sessions locked in jail for 2 hours plus 190 pounds for the risk assessment, so if you add my flight , car hire and hotel , each two hours will cost around 1500 pounds. I am told Cafcass has to fund part of this as it is their recommendation so I have asked the question, I think I know what the answer will be but I asked. Just got an email from your Solicitor to say Cafcass will not fund , they seem to forget that I have suggest 3 different contact centres of the past 11 months , one even in Chester which have all been ignored and rejected by your care giver…. So what do I do little men? …

All the psychological profiling was completed today, so now we wait for the report and recommendations, going over the file from the start today was interesting to see how your care giver changed her position and allegations from April until Sept , looks like two different cases, all part of the games they are playing I assume…. I had to go look up the old emails etc. to send to the psychologist, he also read your blog today, I think he liked the photo’s of you two monkeys……

Tomorrow I need to sit and get my “work” stuff sorted , the emails are building up from today, guess it will take me most of tomorrow to clear the back log , I have some meetings confirmed in Bloemfontein and Klerksdorp next week also , so lots of time in the car it seems , I have not had a road trip in ages so should be fun seeing the Country again, can’t remember the last time I had the opportunity to do so……

Have no clue what you both have been doing this week , but I hope you have your rain coats as I see parts of the UK are getting very heavy rain and massive flood warnings around the South West…. Hope you are safe…..

Hope you have your stuff sorted for school tomorrow champs , I know you two will have a great day of learning and lots of giggles with your little friends…. O , I hope B&B are doing well and that you both are having lots of happy times with them….

I will see you both a little later under our big old green tree in dream land, can’t wait to give you both some warm dry cuddles…..

Night , night little men , warm , dry , happy dreams of Sunny days…..

Love you both around the world and back and miss you more….

Love you boys ….

Good afternoon little men!

Hope you both are having a fantastic day and doing well….

All I can say is so much for me trying to not work , been a bit of a mad day here setting up meetings for next week , viewings etc, but a fun good day all and all.

I am going to the psychologist tomorrow again, guess we will find out shortly if and how crazy I am , lol…. The Court has just emailed to say they now want us in Court for the full day on 28 Feb instead of the 3 hours that was agreed, but you know what boys the Judge is still not willing it seems to release the details of the evaluation they had done at the airport…as I have said before I smell a rat …. Let’s see how much longer they can try and hide this information…..

I hope you both have seen the nice lady called Babs has written to me again , it seems she can not believe the level of contact your care giver is allowing me with you both , keeping in mind she has never claimed that I have done anything to either of you but yet we are being treated like criminals so she can get her kicks and control the fact that we can only spend time with each other in the jail….. Hope when I do go to jail for fighting to have a normal relationship with you both , you two will come visit me from time to time , O and remember it is a little rude to throw peanuts at people even your Dad when he is behind bars , lol ….. Least we will get to spend longer and more regular times together as I think visiting hours are weekly at jail and not every 3 or 4 months as suggested by the Judge now… See always a silver lining , no matter what…. Guess that is my disturbed personality that always sees the bright side of things,

Ouma and Oupa are sitting here, and says I must send you both all their love , and to tell you they miss you both greatly……

Well champs as always I will see you both a little later under our big old green tree in dream land , no monkey business please , lol , can’t wait to give you both a dream cuddle….

Night , night little muppets , happy dreams of more regular contact when I am in jail….

Love you both all the jails in the world full and miss you double that…

Love you boys ….

Hello little men ,

Just to show you how thick your care giver and her spokesperson are , she emailed me on my Birthday 23 Jan and 24 Jan on my hotmail which has been the same since 1999 but now she does not know how to contact me , how strange?

I also see they don’t use the cheap backyard solicitor anymore and the spokesperson is now acting in full for your care giver…..so the true colours will now come out for the world to see…..

More games I guess , and I am told I am the crazy one ??

Love you lots..

Dad xx

Dear Mrs Ferreira,

Thank you for your email. I acknowledge receipt of your statement which was hand delivered to my office.

I will arrange for it to be scanned in so an electronic copy can be sent to Mr Ferreira, as he will need to have sight of this in advance of the hearing listed on 28th February. I have copied Mrs Hurley in at the Courts to avoid any duplication of work by them.

Kind regards

Subject: Statement from Xxxxxxxxxxx

Dear All

I confirm that my response to Mr Ferreira’s appeal to set aside the Final Court Order was hand delivered by my Father, Mr Steve McClure to the Court on Friday, 31st January 2014, at 1.40 p.m., all within the deadline as set out by Judge Singleton.
A copy was also hand delivered to Ms Butterfields Office and a copy left for Mr Peter Morey of Cafcass.

Unfortunately, as Mr Ferreira is now homeless and unemployed as per his recent email, I am not sure of his current contact details and have informed Mrs Hurley that I would not be delivering his copy directly to him.

Kind Regards

Xxxxxxx Ferreira
