[ridingjoker]

ooooh i get to start the thread.
unless i'm being thick and cant find it.

lou - go on send me a pic of dark horse i'm so nosey.

ninah - i think thats really rude of your friend. if she didn't have anything nice to say she shouldn't have said anything at all.

oppalage? wtf? where did you see that? French one legged race?

let it out janos, let it all out, you'll feel better afterwards

am fed up too as its "handover friday" and I just hate having to talk to him

god I hope it gets easier!

It's just...the bloody RUDENESS of it you know? I mean he couldn't even be arsed to make a half baked excuse! At least that would have been POLITE.

It's not like I have a tonne of spare time and being pissed about like that just makes me .

I'm not devastated or anything, I barely know the bloke after all, just really fucked off at being treated that way.

Sympathies inthemists I hate handover time too. Just having to face the bullying controlling tosser pisses me off.

ninah- in lou's email extract, see above.

ah, apologies! what a charmer

oh janos how rude of him

i think oppolage is meant to be apology lol

darkhorse has made teh kids a den and started building hte camp fire for marshmallow toasting later

i have pics on my fb for those of you on it

Meh, he's clearly an arrogant tosser. To the kerb with him I say (and gives me an excuse to order in pizza, as if I needed one!)

I had a wee neb before lou. It looks fab, am vee envious of your gorgeous garden!

hi all, quick peek. trying to be tidying up and getting dc to bed.

who's on dates tonight?

janos - that is very rude of your fri date.will catch you up on msn if your back on later.

asbm - she's out with the puppy dog isn't she?

is everyone else in tonight and mn-ing?

Aww thanks rj.

I'll be ok when I have a minute like I say...just grrr.

asbm is with puppy dog tonight I believe

Are you seeing marvel this w/e after his brush with swine flu? So unfair that should happen.

yeah, supposed to be having our first night out since got together properly tomorrow. i'm going 2 dive thru to birthday party, then he's cooking me dinner at his. then out to pub, then back to mine.

we're debating if he should pop over tonight when he finishes his shift. just for a quick visit

A late visit for coffee, is it ?

there will be NO coffee on offer.

i'm on a date lasting til monday

its a full house tonight, 5 kids darkhorse and my mate has just turned up!

I am in tonight. DS1 is moaning about something to do with his PS3.

Handover tomorrow and he doesn't want to go!!

All this hassle is doing my head in.

Samename not been in touch. Was talking to RL friend today and she wondered whether its just not right from what I have told her.

Lou, all this marshmallow toasting is melting my heart, are you sure he's not the one for you?? Look at the DC's faces.

Handover time didn't last long for me as he lost interest years ago but the few times DD has gone on her own created anxiety in me so I can imagine the face 2 face.

SCL and Nina seems like you are both in the Mr right now relationships. You will both know whether it's go or no go.

Janos, sorry this week's date didn't turn out good.

RJ sounds good with Marvel.

Asbm how's it going with Indie, have I got the nickname right? Think I'm losing track here.

ITM Good luck for Sunday and your cycling.

Ragged, how's the quit?

Phew, it's not often I remember everyone, sorry if I've left anyone out and for getting it all wrong. You have to remember my age.

Meh, thanks eve but his loss I feel!

scl, that sounds really tough. Your poor DS. Is there any kind of solution? What would XH be like if you said DS didn't want to go?

arrrrgggghhhh I punched through a board at my martial arts and, just through sloppy technique, have managed to REALLY hurt my hand! It is all swollen and REALLY painful!!!!! Grrr at myself.

eve- I am still quit! It has been nearly a week, and I had beer tonight (pain relief ) and actually don't want a fag!

lou - this sounds very serious with darkhorse you know. putting him on the insurance and everything! spending all weekend together and having a mate round too...

janos - that is rubbish, especially when you dont have the kids. I HAVE to go out when I dont have ds, so having a cancellation (or a blanking) is just crap.

am looking forward to hearing about anyones dates tomorrow...

do you think it sounds serious? it was all good fun anyway, and he jusst brought me breakfast in bed

omg don't know what to do (sorry a bit off topic) - spent morning running around with dcs and they are now both at exhs.

Since then have had a whispered phone message from ds2 saying please pick me up I am so bored and a txt from exh saying ds2s bhaviour the worst ever!!

I'm at work have plans for tonight and tomorrow morning.

exh just has to deal with it doesn't he? I don't even know whether I will reply to the txt.

Oh scl how stressmaking for you.

Yes, you can ignore the text. It's not your job to go a-running and sort things out just because he's whinging.

Unless you want to reply and say Deal with it! That would be entirely fair

And by 'he' I mean your XH NOT your DS!!! Just realised that wasn't clear.

my ex BIL and SIL are coming to visit them there so I hope that they will distract my dcs.

If I did reply it would say you're their father -deal with it!!

DS1 has seen right through him and DS2 has a bit but I think he is a bit jealous of his half b and s and he doesn't feel comfortable in dh's p's house.

Also their routine with the dts appears not to be able to slip by even 15 minutes!!

Oh and have just removed my profile from the dating website I am on.

Had a look earlier and samename is still on there. We are meant to be meeting tomorrow (we did speak last night) but I have decided anyway to take the summer off and maybe reconsider in the Autumn.

However I did send my email addy to one guy on there who works in a famous garden so he could keep in touch if he wanted. Told him things were so so and that I would be deleting my profile for now.

Is this the equivalent of a dating flouce!! LOL

lol @scl flounce.

so is samename back in the bin?

my exp has just told me he's working till later tonight and will i go sit in his house with dc and put them to bed for him while he works? then go collect them before lunch time tomorrow??

wtf is the point in that. then i do everything except give them their cereal??

told him sat night is his resposibility. if he cant be there then he needs to organise a sitter.

so waiting on a call back.

so i'll either have to get bro round to babysit as he has nephew tonight anyway. or else just have marvel round once dc in bed if exp cant get a sitter for couple of hrs till he finishes.

haven't told marvel. he wont be best pleased as gone to a lot of effort sorting dinner i think.but suppose he can bring it here or i can still go for dinner if i get my bro round.

asbm - where are you? are you still on your date!!!???? thats almost 24 hrs now!!!

Scl like the fact that you sent your addy to someone before the flounce. Good move.

I've been sending messages back and forth today to a new one of POF. He gave me his number to text to fairly quickly so . Told him I needed more background which he has provided.

He's only been on it a week, aww bless. Was just thinking that the last couple I had been chatting to were to slow on the uptake and this one has already suggested meeting up. It's either Mr Cautious or Mr Overkeen.
