Where have all the fit, interesting and available men gone? Part 22

[Monty100]

Yay, did I make it to the bar first again??

mah just the festival
mind you packing for me and dc and every kind of weather eventuality you'd think we were off for a fortnight
it is fairylight who's on hol

eve the dinner sounded delish
ninah sounds as tho you had a good time did the kids enjoy?
betty glad to hear that all's going swimmingly well for you.are the kids a similar age to his dd?
and have they had any probs with the new man in their mum's life?
monty you're sounding v lurved up atm i have to say
the song is by snow patrol
scl how are things with you?

hi asmb, my 2 are 6 (almost 7) and 5, his dd is 2 1/2 so there is a bit of an age difference but they are quite good girls (without sounding too big headed) and have so far included her in everything when they are playing. I just have to keep reminding them not to do silly things like jump off of things cos she will copy them. And so far they have liked having him around, he doesnt spend a lot of time here, and half of that is still when they are in bed but they also like going to his house lol

Hi everybody. Quiet on here.

ASBM - things are tootling along pretty smoothly atm. Hope you're all ok too.

Betty - aww, dd's sound lovely.

Have been eating out again! It's DD's 17th birthday today.

And I missed yet another dress on ebay. Grr. Never mind.

Betty, I looked at a few of your fb pics and thought you had twins! They are lovely and if anything like DD at this age would make a fuss epecially of a little girl. I'm being nosy is that the bf if one of the photos?

Just been on fb and turkish delight popped up in chat. His holiday plans to Italy fell through due to work and he told me I would have free accommodation in Turkey. I'm not planning on going away this year, finances dictate, but got a nice warm feeling from that won't say where, it's rude. He was quite lovey so I ended the convo, food for thought though!

Not having much luck on POF. Signed up cos of the drizzly sunday and got 9 messages! One or two from ones I've ignored in the past. One was worth replying to but he lives a bit away, is quite a bit younger and didn't ask me a question on his last email so probably won't bother. Can feel a deletion of profile coming on. Might hang around and see if it improves.

X post Monty, hope DD had a lovely birthday.

eve you and turkish are getting on for a ltr by now, he sounds keen!
asbm yeah it was great, mostly I was working on the stall but dd had a friend there and ds found one and it was small enough for them to wander a bit without worrying
kids area was good too, bhangra, clay, stories, craft etc
bout time you bought something monty your cupboard must be bare lol
haven't seen nm/ex for over a month now which makes him ex, so congratulations are finally in order! I'm at the happily single but curious stage iykwim, it usually spells trouble

Ninah, congratulations. I think! Will you take a break or head straight onto a dating site?

Thanks Eve.

Lol at warm feeling. Aren't you tempted just for a quick week?

Cross post Ninah.

But I need that dress for a wedding in September.

Monty, I am! I think his English has improved. I reckon he might have taken a course. He also seemed quite genuine. Must look up airfares. He doesn't live where I met him but it looks lovely where he lives.

betty lovely ages
really pleased to hear that all's going well with all the kids,tbh lo's always love having older one's around and the fact they're all girls must help lots!!
have you met bf's ex yet?
and how has your exh reacted?
eve am trying to be encouraging here,you know where i live and you know that it's largely pond life round here, but there's always the chance that some decent bloke will come along,it can happen
mont happy birthday to dd,hope that she's having a good one
pleased to hear that things are good with al

Well this is it eve, I am really pretty happy now, and I don't want to jeopardise it! I am getting out, doing different stuff and meeting interesting people (not fia men)
but it's at times like this when your confidence is high you feel tempted to have a bit of a trawl
I was so glad not to be with ex at festival, he is v set in his ways. I want someone open to new things, interested in life and people, good conversations. BUT also reliable faithful and devoted. Tall order
I did have a bit of an oooooh moment when a chap asked me to do up his wristband. It's nice to feel like that, but it's all so disruptive isn;t it, you end up investing a lot of mental energy etc
I prob won't bother with sites yet. I may try to arrange a couple of dates when ex has dc in the summer ...
I am convinced I want to get on that sofa anymore though

ok, I let you off then monty lol
only 2 shopping months left ...

wow posted then seen all of yours lol
ooh ninah didn't realise that it had been a month...did you do the talk?
great that you could have a nice time without stressing over the kids and what they were up to
am lol @ eve and turkish delight omfg what a top name...think he earns best nick name ever on this thread
mont haven't properly been on ebay today,well i have, but not properly iyswim so i haven't checked out the dress but it's still on my watched list
i'm more than quietly confident that you'll get it tho as more seem to be coming on every day

Hi all, Can i come on here and have a silent scream????

Have just spend a lovely hour talking to traveller. Sent him a txt saying i was around this weekend and he was on the phone within minutes! In fact he rang twice as I was out walking the dog and the kids forgot to say...

But guess what, says he may have to go out to Jordan this weekend to finish a job. Is going to try to get out of it and will let me know - cant believe it. We missed each other by minutes last weekend and now looks like we will do the same again.

Think we are fated to spend the rest of our lives just talking on the phone

nah we never got it together, which in itself says more than words
dd misses him more than I do
still have some stuff to exchange if we can be bothered
yes turkish d is a good name and he seems to live up to it too

oh no elasta

elasta he sounds v keen
hope he can get time off

Eve - I think it has to be done.

Ninah - you do sound in quite a good place. Lol at only 2 shopping months left.

ASBM - rofl at Al.

I wore the Peacocks dress tonight and kidded on to dd I'd bought it in Hobbs . I told her it was £104 (random) and she said 'you never paid the full price', so I said it was on the Sale rail for £65. I couldn't keep it up for long tho lol.

Elasta - ffs!

ASBM - I need a size 12 8. OK???.

Aw thanks for helping me out wiv da dress.

well it looked a darn sight more than what you paid
yes, all good electra. Let us know what happens re traveller
earlier post should've read i am NOT at all sure I want to go sofa

mont you will go to the ball...ok!!

lol
keep your glass slippers on afterwards though
