lou33 · 23/04/2010 17:36

the straight talker who restrained herself this afternoon in sainsburys when i came face to face with a tit of a boy who had upset my oldest

i only spat at him that he was a little scrote

would have said more but dd1 was there and asked me not to and then when she left dd2 kept reminding me not to make him cry

he looked scared shitless tho

ninah · 23/04/2010 17:57

Good luck for party mrs h, rather you than me 8 in the house
kdk sorry about date, but good for you, being seen going into A Pub with A Man

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/04/2010 18:00

ohh it's fun to be the talk of the school gates..i LOVE IT lol

ninah · 23/04/2010 18:21

Like I said since I moved in there are 3 or 4 more ..
My neighbour was agog over xmas as I had TWO men staying in succession
didn't tell her no 2 was gay

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/04/2010 18:27

nah..let her think you're having a gangbang lol

ninah · 23/04/2010 18:29

I asked him to bring his black bf but he was at a prince tribute concert in belgium

aseriouslyblondemoment · 23/04/2010 18:42

aww what a shame.....now THAT would have been the talk of the village for ages..

Monty100 · 23/04/2010 18:49

Lol at you lot.

ASBM - you have mail .

Lou - forgot to say your garden is lovely!

Ninah - when are your visitors coming? I hope they're enough to give your neighbours something to talk about.

Eve - I think it's beer o'clock too. I have to wait as I have a very strong feeling dd is about to ask me for a 'taxi' . Still I can pick up a beer supply while I'm out .

Kdk - that's a shame. Still if it was ok, nothing lost. I'll swear you read munter's message wrong. But if he's a munter it doesn't matter. lol

DP is 'having a couple of pints for St George's day and then going home to get showered and changed and he'll be over later and if I want to go out we could go to the Friday night live music pub'. Yeh right. What'll probably really happen is, he'll have more than two pints and won't want to either drive home nor go out later, he'll end up here in his work clothes, buy a curry, snooze on the sofa, have a shower and hit the sack . The other scenario is he'll be so late I won't want to go anywhere. He might prove me wrong, shall we open a book on it?

Do I sound miserable??

Juice - I hope you're out enjoying yourself

kdk · 23/04/2010 18:56

@ Monty - why do you think I read it wrong? To me, saying things like 'unconventional' and saying you'd be allowed your independence is shorthand for saying fb or no-strings but I bow to your superior knowledge! Still was a munter though!

lou33 · 23/04/2010 19:29

my first thought was that the munter was wanting a no strings fling, or rather someone who would be ready willing and able when he wanted, but of course wouldnt see him in the same way

bf is finally on his way to see me

but working tomorrow

which means i have boris all day as well as dora a cat and 3 hamsters

oh and 4 kids

SingleMum01 · 23/04/2010 19:30

Evening all, definitely wine o'clock.

Nothing from older bloke today after he left me hanging on the text yesterday. Really can't see why bother to text me after he'd said it was over. Definitely got to get those dating boots out again And where's my rebound man when I need him

kdk - got anything else lined up?

Lou - how are you feeling now?

Why are all the blokes in their 40's fat and bald

lou33 · 23/04/2010 19:34

i feel fine thanks

i just remembered the advantage of having an 18 yr old child was the ability for them to go buy alcohol, and pay for it themselves, so i pinched a glass of her wine

i will be done in when bf gets here, i already had a bottle of beer

DONTtouchMUMSspecialJUICE · 23/04/2010 19:35

monty - go pub yourself .. seriously though. you sound like on last legs with dp. i can hear the stamp of feet for his marching orders coming in the distance.

sm - where are you?.. i'm guessing disappeared with chat to dad2, oh.. and as for your fella now in contact ... is he after friendship? can you do that?

hark me.... rofl... i'm not best example of that. i have a small list now of ex's who are "friends"

lou - 2 weeks.. thats not too bad. colposcopy was 6 weeks. so considering it was work down there it sounds quite reasonable. at ex offering sunday

belle - did you see marine?

elast - you going to see him again?

asbm, janos, everyone

eve - is athletic gone yet?

my exam - pretty confident i passed. as for distinction.. will need to wait till june for result.

motorola is making me cheesecake .. but cant be arsed seeing him. he left his phone at home today so not to annoy me as i was busy with exam.. he still managed a phone call and 10 texts

irish is "bored" .... it all goes terribly tits up when he gets bored... told him i'm not coming out to play till start of week. think he's angling for me to ask him to come over.

but i cant be arsed. and the house is a mess. and i really just fancy being on my own ALL wkd. been neglecting the kids with studying. so be nice to just do some fun stuff with them.

pc - hi, glad your in better mood.

ninah - you should move here. they dont bat an eyelid. mind you... i will admit to having a little gossip other day.. on of the mums is pg again. she has 5 kids under 5yo when this one arrive we're all thinking she's nuts brave

kdk - so.. your date turned out to be a poker porker? but will you go for another coffee?

piratecat · 23/04/2010 19:35

hi all I've a big glass of red on the go.

so glad it is the weekend.

single, what was last contact with older man?

lou33 · 23/04/2010 19:38

2 weeks is forever juice!

i was pestering him the next night , but he wouldnt give in

though he is faltering now i know it

Monty100 · 23/04/2010 19:42

SM - Has rebound man abounded?? Older man should do one actually now I think too. Why are all blokes in their 40s fat and bald?? Well, I was musing upon this earlier, obviously not all are, but it's really hard to find an attractive man in his 40s/50s whereas women are often still very attractive. (Hypothetically of course).

(Have been doing too much Statistics coursework with ds this week).

Kdk - maybe I'm not reading it properly.

Anyway, 'cheers' everybody am cracking open a beer now. And happy St George's day to those who are patriotic .

elastamum · 23/04/2010 19:57

hi all! Thank you for being so friendly and helpful with your good advice - feel back on track now!

Have opened a beer and am planning a weekend of fun stuff with my boys. Not going to think about men at all (well might sneak a quick peek online later if i get bored)

SingleMum01 · 23/04/2010 20:01

Juice - I'm still here! And well done on exam.

Juice and PC - I've no idea what older bloke wants last saw him Sun, he wanted to meet Thurs, then text Wed to say he felt there was something missing so to call it a day. I text back to say yeh the something missing was the compliments he didn't pay, didn't say how he felt etc etc and I wouldn't trouble him again. So I was surprised when he replied. He then agreed with what I'd said and said what was causing him an issue was I seemed distant when he kissed me on the Friday (this was prob cos I was thinking I've got to get to school). Anyway various texts were sent with the last one from him saying his friend had turned up leaving me in the air and nothing since. I know he's out tonight so am not expecting anything now and like I say even if he did now .... I still feel like crap though, must've got under my skin more than I thought. Do you think I ought to text him in a few days or just leave it?? Been back on dating sites and got a few lined up just in case

Don't know where rebound man has gone - think we must've scared him off!

Cheers to all with a glass x

Monty100 · 23/04/2010 20:02

Hi Elasta - any more from him? Is he contacting you when he gets back? Good plan too putting them out of your mind and getting on with things.

elastamum · 23/04/2010 20:15

Hi Monty, No idea! sent me a message saying what he was up to but nothing much else. Dont think this one is going anywhere somehow,

thesouthsbelle · 23/04/2010 20:21

just gonna be catching up.

quick Q before I do thou. is 44 too old do you think? I thought marine was 42, he's not - he confirmed today he's 44 next month i'm 28, that's 16 years, he doesn't act or look 44, but is it a bit old really?

off to catch up - oh and KDK - WOW Kudos for being the talk of the school.

SingleMum01 · 23/04/2010 20:25

Oooh Belle - are you going on a date with him yet?? What's in 2 years! I don't think so but I go for older guys anyway - unfortunately now I'm older they're pensioners, lol, not really!

lou33 · 23/04/2010 20:27

ive dated guys 16yrs younger than me if that helps

if you like him it doesnt matter

thesouthsbelle · 23/04/2010 20:39

sm - oooh rebound guy! lol. did we scare him off them - damn it was looking at hats as well. ref older one - leave him to it, hold your head up high n shout NEXT! the ask them to form an orderly queue. lol.
