Afterwards he said he didn't mean it, but i think he did.
It just came right out of the blue, after him not seeing them for 3 weeks, he just said, if he got himself sorted out with a job etc and a place to live round here, would i consider him having them for 6 mths and then me and so on and so on.
I think the colour pretty much drained from my face in about 2 seconds flat and then i recovered enough to say, over my dead body.
He said why not and I said because they are my kids and what the hell would i do without them, to which he said obviously, they are his kids too and what do i think he does without them.
He then said, he didn't really mean it and would never do that to me, and I said well don't ever say it then, and added that i'd never allow it anyway.
