Where have all the fit, interesting and available men gone? Part 23

[Monty100]

These threads are finishing faster and faster!

As you were.

And Mummy, the only other thing you need to know about internet dating is that its just a numbers game. So write a short witty note in word, cut and paste it to anyone you like the look of and top and tail it with something personal from their profile.

Half of them won't reply, half of those you meet you wont ever want to see again, but every now and again you may meet someone you really like. Good luck

to elasta
Well theres a challenge
What does MSF stand for ?
I'd settle for a sailor, or horsey person, just please god know techies with pens in their top pocket...

Funnily enough I could probably describe a 'profile' to you lot with no prob but freeze with embarassment when I think about it for a dating site....so I need to get over that then....

My single friend.

Do you like horses too??? I've got a horse Perhaps you should go out with me - shame I'm a girl

Monty, been out for dinner with a completely lovely work friend and mentor of many years who is (fingers crossed like mad) in remission from cancer. Blown away by her attitude and determination - mother of 4 and just fab

So am feeling pleasantly blurred with vino and thoroughly determined not to wallow in my situation but recognise my blessings and grab life by the short and curlies

Am going to find a date if it is last thing I do (how inspiring is that ?)

You go girl!!! Am off for a bath as have already sunk too much wine - will be back later

Elasta, love horses
When I have got past divorce and regrouped, a horse is top of the list
Very happy to go out with you , preferably on a hack

Elasta and Mummy up a tree.....

Mummy - I'm seeing a friend tomorrow night, except she's not in remission, the treatment isn't working. She's just started a new one and is likely to lose her hair again. Everything crossed.

Oh Monty, how awful, it really puts our musings into perspective. I have a friend awaiting her biopsy results atm

oh monty

Sorry, didn't mean to bring you down, but thank you for your replies I appreciate the care.

She's such a great strong woman emotionally and physically, and her faith is the strongest I have ever known and it always has been. I thought she'd see it off, I really did. It's been about 18 months now, and she cried on the phone tonight for the first time. She has four dc's. The youngest is only about 7.

We take a lot in our lives forgranted don't we. I'm going round to hers and then we're going to take a walk and go for a beer tomorrow night. I need to give her strength...... and pray my ass off.

All quiet here in dc-less world. It's lovely. My dsis, niece and her baby came round tonight and dsis baggsed two of the kittens . Two down two to go.

Monty, fingers crossed as you say

puts the various XH situations into clear perspective

elasta, if you live nearby (Herts) and you ever want your nag exercising just shout

right, have got back online after getting home and gassing with my DM (babysitter extra-ordinaire, also doing my ironing when I blew in 3 sheets to the wind is looking after DDs tmrw whilst lovely nanny gets her nails done in prep to be bridesmaid for her sis on Friday, awwww, I am actually blardy lucky with my gang in RL)

am now off to do a proper profile on SWK and GET OUT THERE [gasp]

BTW - the baby is BEAUTIFUL. So gorgeous.

monty at least you're there for her and will cheer her up over a beer

I'm sure I'll cheer her up, somehow lol.

I don't say much about rl on here apart from wittering about Al and dc's. Every now and again I get provoked by another post ie neighbours, ill friend and maybe some other stuff, then feel really bad for steering the thread so far away from what it's supposed to be about. Soz.

behave monty!
all of us steer off the thread all the time it's allowed!
how does it feel to be a great auntie?

I've got loads of great dgns and dgns

Come from a big family and I'm one of the youngest.

You ok?

dear god there are 1000's of them........

by the way, did I miss it or did we ever get the other viagra story???

had forgotten that doh!
will fill you in on my latest tomorrow

and what is with the profile descriptions like a secondhand car, good grief, men

ok, so I am right back on the thread topic, but honestly, the cats are more interesting

sorry asbm, am now trawling through singlewithkinds if you didn't get the '1000's of them'etc refenrences

and so to bed, nn all

nn all.

monty sorry about your friend, repeated treatment must be gruelling and depressing for her.

hello all
scl ... you can't say that and disappear, viagra story!

Morning all.

Ninah - I think there's only so much they'll give her, I'll know more tonight.

Mummy - lol at cats more interesting.

Have you not seen anybody at all that floats your boat??

I saw someone on the train this morning that floated my boat. I only noticed him because he was looking iyswim. But lord only knows what he was thinking .

Seriously he was very much my type, really tall, well built, good looking, , carrying a lovely leather laptop bag and some exhibition kit or something, wearing a checked shirt and jeans.... and erring slightly on the side of scruffy .

Dp just called me to say he had cut himself above his eye. Reckons he may be left with a scar
