getting a bit hot n flustered are we montGrin
does he need stitches lou?

Ohh Monty man on a train!! How exciting. I once met a very sexy american in the exec lounge in Philadelphia.

He chatted me up, got me a drink, walked me to my aircraft and then went to Paris whilst I flew to London. I was gutted Sad

Monty100 · 12/08/2010 13:07

Lou - hope dp's ok.

ASBM - it was a sight to behold and fair put a smile on my grumpy-first-thing-in-the-morning-face Wink

Elasta - very similar, I followed him up the escalator but sadly lost him at the Northern Line. lol

Or I could say, I lost him at the Eurostar terminal so he may have been going to Paris while I was stopping in London.
No, no matter how I try I can't paint it other than it was, not quite the exec lounge in Philadelphia sadly. More Elephant & Castle to King's Cross.

Grin

Shame about your sexy American tho. What a bummer. Shock

Dont know tbh. He was dismissing it but also said it bled loads and was deep. He wouldnt be so sensible as to get it looked at, so i said i would check it later. He asked if i could wear a nurse outfit. . . .

sincitylover · 12/08/2010 13:36

sorry for the delay need to type it out when dcs won't see.

My exh had a gbf who he would meet fro lunch from time to time. Didn't much like the guy myself but no prob with exh meeting up with him.

After one meet, was hacking into exh's email (as by this time I had several suspicions) - there was email from gbf saying hi exh your sweeties have arrived'

At this point I had no idea what the sweeties could be and for a split second wondered whether exh was on drugs.

Called him immediately (red mist had descended) said I had to talk to him there and then. He said he was in a coffee bar and could he call me back. I told him to get the f* outside and speak to me now!! (I was at work by the way and was shouting my head off Blush

I confronted him and he said the the sweeties were viagra
and he had got them from gbf to spice up our non existent sexlife Hmm

Tbh I just didn't buy that and still don't. I think he was using them when abroad on business. I think him and gbf 's lunch convo was about what happened when he went away.

We did use one half once on our tenth anniversary which was oen of the rare times we had sex after dc2.

It didn't seem to make much difference tbh

Not a particularly pleaseant story eh

sincitylover · 12/08/2010 13:52

Also have had the pleasure of meeting exh this morning to hand over passports and euro medical cards for the hols.

I have asked him for more maintenance but don't think he will yield. It is based on the fact that our agremment is based on him having them for 48 hours every other w/e and one night per week. As I have said before he doesn't do that it is more like 24 hours every other week and three hours each week. Plus I generally take the dcs to him and pick them up from his place.

It would be so bad if he didn't boast today about going out to a very nice restaurant last night nr Tower Bridge, getting a black cab home and paying the babysitter #45!!!

I will ask him again after the hols.

sincitylover · 12/08/2010 13:54

oh and sorry to hear about your friend Monty - puts everything into perspective doesn't it?

aseriouslyblondemoment · 12/08/2010 14:14

lol @ half a tab on your wedding anniversary,am surprised that you made it to ten years!
it is truly incredible how some of these men seem incapable of realising just how much dcs cost esp when he now has dt's as wellAngry
hopefully the boys will fleece him good n proper on their holsGrin

hatesponge · 12/08/2010 14:27

:( re your friend Monty.

Think wedding man and I are on the verge of our first row. Which considering there's not even anything going on between us is a bit odd. He is in a v bad mood (long story but to do with some stuff I have been helping him with) and rather than discussing it with me and letting me explain/advise has flounced off and wont answer his phone. Am somewhere between Hmm and :(

Monty100 · 12/08/2010 15:05

SCL - Thanks.
Shock at 10th wedding anniversary viagra story. He's another horror isn't he with the maintenance. I agree you should collar him again when he gets back.

ASBM - lol at the boys fleecing him good n proper on hols. I hope so.

Sponge - Thanks.
Oh, I would be Confused.

Oh, just got a compliment from work colleague says I look like this.

Am Smile and chuffed lol. But sadly not deluded. Grin

hatesponge · 12/08/2010 15:31

well, all ok now. Was a bit of a storm in a teacup. He is v quick to see red (much like me) but calms down equally quickly. However he now can't make tomorrow but is coming next week. Means the lasagne is off BUT gives me time to give the house a proper tidy AND dye my grey roots! lol

Monty - cant open the link. But I have met you and know how lovely you are Grin

Monty100 · 12/08/2010 16:12

Sponge - . Are you going to invite him to stop for dinner the following week? I think an argument/misunderstanding is healthy. Grin

ninah · 12/08/2010 16:38

scl stories like that must make you SOOO grateful to be out of it Sad
horrible
monty have you seen the Harry Potter girl's pixie cut, she looks fantastic
Funnily enough I was thinking of taking the clippers to mine on a longish setting but not something to do on impulse i guess
hate bit early for a tiff? do you think your similarities would be plus or minus in a potential relationship. Glad it's sorted out!
well I've taken the plunge and bought a single bed on ebay. I'm sick of getting backache on my deathtrap double
and I got 4 jumpers, a T shirt, a leather jacket, a glass chess set, two books, 5 tapes for the car from boutique vintage aka Help the Aged, change from £15- oh and the lady gave dc voice changers for a present, not sure about those lol
hope you have some quality time with your friend tonight monty

mummyilubyou · 12/08/2010 16:48

afternoon to all

gosh, knackered - too early start this morn after all that vino last night - I must have been fairly well oiled as I put a profile up on SWK and have been swamped with emails Grin, although have yet to read them so not getting too excited yet

Monty, I was daunted last night by how many blokes are on there, also lots with no kids which makes me wonder why they are on that particular site....Confused

Take the Katie Holmes compliment at face value and float through the rest of the day Grin

SCL - viagra story is more of the same isn't?

My XH reason for leaving was I 'unreasonably' confronted him about the fact he was up all hours chatting horribly explicityl with women on maritalaffair.co.uk.......more ewww than viagra as it actually had revitalised our sex life without me realising what he was up to - I niavely (sp???) though he was finding me particularly irresistable but turns out he was fantasising about a bunch of slappers Angry

Gah

SCL, I feel for you on the maintenance front, my XH has yet to realise that he will owe his DDs something - he thinks he will get spousal maintenance from me. Am dreading the whole divorce process as he is crap at real life responsibilities......best man to be with if lost in the wilderness as ex army and gives Ray Mears a run for his money, but can't do the boring mundanity of partnership, parenthood, home ownership etc etc.......

gosh, sorry about that, bit of a rant

right, am off to read all my messages from SWK

hatesponge · 12/08/2010 17:03

Monty I was only being honest Grin

Ninah, the flouncy stuff from him doesnt bother me. Have always been v quick to see red myself, my Italian roots mean there was always lots of shouting in my house! - but its what I'm used to and I would far rather have that than Ex who would sulk in virtual silence for days or else explode in rage the consequences of which were pretty unpleasant.

talking of Ex, he has now said he will take DS1 on hols if I pay for him, as he cant afford it. I said he should have gone to Butlins then he could have afforded to pay for both! Grin

As it stands neither is going.

mummy - well done re getting your profile up, and good to hear you have lots of mails...any with potential?

mummyilubyou · 12/08/2010 17:05

hmm, some possibilities

but you couldn't make this up - am back home in my office but nipped to the loo (more detail than you need but important context) and picked up one of the 'loo books' which is shakespear quotes, opened a page a random and read this from Othello:

O, these men these men!
Dost thou in consceince think
That there be women who do abuse their husbands
In such gross kind?

Am not man-hater I promise, but I did think....

aseriouslyblondemoment · 12/08/2010 19:13

sponge this doesn't sound good tbh esp when we've put up with abuse and histrionics from our previous exs and this is before you've even started a relationshipShock
ninah you don't half find some bargains near you the charity shops are pretty pants round here
mummy never tried swk so will watch with interest

lou33 · 12/08/2010 19:17

Ha no, he has gone to the pub after work with his mates, so he cant be that bad!

mummyilubyou · 12/08/2010 19:22

well I broke my duck and have.....responded to a message [gulps]

off to get my hair cut, will see what transpires Grin

Ninah, re short hair, I took the plunge 18 months ago and went proper short and love it, also don't bother with highlights anymore so is mousey grey but get more compliements about it than I ever did with long blonde tresses so maybe worth a shot

talking of which, better scram....

aseriouslyblondemoment · 12/08/2010 19:24

he'll obv.live then lolGrin

lou33 · 12/08/2010 19:57

I expect quite a few calls and texts telling me he loves me as the pints go down lol

Remotew · 12/08/2010 20:05

A male friend once gave me a viagra pill, he bought them off the internet. Did nowt for me.

I've decided to wear skinny jeans, tan ankle boots, black camisole with a cropped short sleeved black beaded cardigan for tomorrow night. Just need to buy gold beaded neckless then it should look nice enough.

Re-read his profile and am looking forward to meeting him.

Mummy, good look with your messages, hope someone grabs your attention.

I used to have short hair in the 80's, think it would look horrible now.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 12/08/2010 20:13

lol lou those 'i luuuurve yah...'texts and calls always make me smileGrin
eve hooray you're going!!
outfit sounding good
where are you meeting him?
btw i think you could pull off short hair remember helen baxendale was going to be cast as you!!

Remotew · 12/08/2010 20:20

Yeah I wish I did look like her. Meeting him at a really nice lakeside bar. I'm driving, he won't be. Tempted to look up bus times but hey it's a first meeting so reckon I should save him from my drunken self for at least the 2nd date if we get that far.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 12/08/2010 20:24

behave lolGrin
venue sounds lovely is it just a drink or dinner as well?
