Hi to all, hope you have all had a good day

Have just got back from a day climbing with DS2, who qualified for the national finals in his age group. Am very proud

Traveller turned up first thing and stayed to watch and chat for a couple of hours before pushing off. Dont really know what to make of that, although expect MILY will be along later to give me a lecture about wasting my time with the wrong man Expect to be seeing quite a bit of him over the next few months though as DS2 is being coached there. am sort of hoping it will just develop as friends, he hasnt changed a bit from last year.

Have had lots of lovely txts from GW. Am going to invite him to dinner, although not sure how far i want to take things as he is still living with ex. All very complicated

elasta's ds2 - congratulations
elasta - please stay away from gw, if he is still living with his ex, you don't know exactly what the living bedroom arrangements are, i don't want you to get hurt ((())) and same with traveller, just be friends

snape - will do lol

good evening everybody
a little bird has told me that some poster on the FIT leave in south east lnd
if you can/want, can you give us a shout

posterSSS

not me sorry, i'm opposite side
hi helena

hi aurora
have I read correctly? Did Snape really take a picture of Train Man?

yes i think so

:( aurora

GW worries me too with his living arrangements, but it could all be fine. Can you go round there? That would clear it up a bit tbh.

Have had an awesome weekend and trying desperately not to fall for Smurf. Went round on Friday night after a meal out with MNers, had half plans with Carrot for Sat afternoon but he didn't call me, so I didn't bother either. Psycho came to pick me up early evening so I could grab my car, and I went back until I had to leave to collect the kids today. Was meant to be seeing friends last night. I am a terrible friend when a naked man is on offer . He said he wouldn't ask me to stay for the evening as my friends would hate him, but if I chose to then he wouldn't kick me out . It is easy and fun. Def seeing him again Thurs, probably some other random time during the week too.

flame :) @ smurf!

helena .....maybe....

i had a (completely above board and fully-clothed) dream about trainman last night, in which his name was Christopher.

a Platonic Man-less weekend. i miss him. :( but i'm watching 'being human' now and lusting after Mitchell, so diversionary tactics!

oooh Mitchell....the one man I would totally break my 'no men with long hair' rule for

We spent Sat in pubs and shooting things in his flat with an air rifle. So different to my usual types

cor i have missed loads!

how is everyone?

dora has made great progress, and aside from a massive healing wound on her belly and still looking a bit skinny, she is almost acting like nothing ever happened

she woke up dp this morning by standing on his chest, putting a paw on his face, then dropping a toy on him to throw for her to play with, lol

i took her back to the emergency vet today because i had to give them an insurance claim form, and thought it would be nice to show them how well she is doing

the vets who admitted her and operated on her werent on duty, but the receptionist was, and she was delighted to see how much better she looked, made a big fuss of her and gave her a tiny dog treat

she said it was great to see her, as they dont usually hear how the animals get on, just see the sad poorly ones

eddie is ok as well

my life atm has been consumed by sick dogs and their complicated timetable of medication, so dont have anything else to add for now

:)

Oh Lou, so pleased to hear that both Dora and Edie are doing well. You really have been through it lately. hi to everyone else

Have had a really busy weekend. Piantballing for DS1's b'day today. Both boys all really happy and tired tonight. have spend the last hour doing school uniform - lucky me..

Have had nice e mail from GW. Am trying to find time to see him again, but not easy unless he comes to stay as he is so far away.

Will be seeing traveller anyway next couple of weeks, but have decided that he will make a much better friend than a BF. Ironically the kids really like him, especially DS2, as he is a climber and happy to talk climbing with him and give him some help. How great is that. I meet a man who I can now see is unlikely ever to make a BF. He happens by chance to meet my kids and they get on really well. Thats the story of my life

Hello all :)

Will try not to miss anyone out...

elasta, great news re Mr GW. Agree that traveller is not bf material but should definitely be used as free climbing instructor. Well done to your little one too :) Also, as someone who spent over a year living with exH after separation, I urge you not to rule him out simply on that basis.

lou...good dog news, hope this week brings less drama.

flame...sounds like an interesting evening. What have you got planned for the next date?

aurora...hoping for a quick appt and good news at the drs.

snape...looking forward to the next train man instalment. I'm almost tempted to join FB just so I can sneak a look!

mily, any more dress news?

tookool, where have you been all weekend?

sponge...grrr at ex. Twat. What about your imminent date?

eve, how was your date on Saturday?

Hello ninah, flf, sin and anyone else I've missed (sorry!)

Mad weekend here, at union meeting all day Sat and had to speak in front of 150 people using a microphone in huge conference room . Out from 9am to 8pm by the time I had also picked DD1 up from school. Have been glued to my laptop and dining room table today, getting mid-term assessments, planning folder and next week's (ok, I admit it, I only got as far as tomorrow lunchtime ) lessons ready. TLOML was up north this weekend and had a lovely time with his DD. Apparently he showed her the picture of himself and me on his phone and said 'Who's that?' pointing at himself - 'Daddy', she said. 'Who's that?' pointing at me - 'Mummy', she said Is it a two year old thing where all men are Daddy and all women are Mummy?!!

Have a good week :)

grrr...said it was offline then posted it twice!!

Oh well, not the first time I've repeated myself and it won't be the last either.

I promise I'm not trying to fill the thread so I can start the new one again!

yay lou. glad that dora is on the mend, thats really fab.

flame - sounds like its going really well. congrats.

sponge - did you have a date this weekend in the end?

snape - train man???

Had a bit of a revelation this weekend and have taken my profile off all dating sites. I cannot be arsed, not one little bit. I had a lovely weekend with DD, and ive got the joy of 6 more of them.. will no interuptions.. i dont want to organise babysitters... plus i want to get the house totally spring cleaned and the garden sorted nice and early.
I realised i was looking for excuses to get out of next tuesdays date, and i was going to go, more because i felt that i should, than i wanted to, if that makes any sense at all. So, profile gone, poof!

:)

I did give my email address to one guy, who ive been chatting on and off to for a while... but ive told him im not dating for the next 6 weeks or so... we spent a good few hours on msn last night.. but we shall see.

AND, and heres the killer. Mr Big does, 100% have a girlfriend, which is what i suspected. Only saturday he was talking about us meeting up and sorting it all out. Its just wrong. The whole thing is just wrong. I cannot decide if i should have a go at him and tell him its totally inappropiate to talk to me like he had been when he has a girlfriend, and that if i were her id be fuming...
or
to just leave it, say nothing and just dont talk to him. again. ever.

So, date free... and that way for a while.. and bloody happy about that fact :)

actually. Thinking on the drive to work. Im just not going to say anything and being honest, what can i say. We arent together... its his choice. Howvever, i do think its a perfect example of why i shouldnt be with him. If he thinks being with a girlfriend while telling somone else you love them is acceptable... yeah.. thats just not on, and i dont want to be part of that anymore.

So, the plan is, quietly go, when he contacts me, which he will do, and i predict about 2 weeks tops, i shall just tell him that its no longer something i want.

good plan?

and can i still be part of this thread, even though im on a dating strike?

Sounds like a good plan to me.

And yes, you'd better not sod off just because you're not dating.

Know where you are coming from TK. I have come to the conclusion that dating doesnt really make me any happier. I toook my profiles down a couple of weeks ago as the house is up for sale and we might be moving so didnt seem much point.

So at the moment its GW - next date this weekend and possibly the odd coffee with traveller. If all that goes tits up am just going to give up until I sort the rest of my life out. Wont give up this thread though
