Actually Hertfordshire is about 20mins drive from me. I live in Chingford ( which is geographically N E) but has an east london postcode! maybe I should have put east london, instead? ky

hi, thanks all - I do have my 3mth old son with me all the time ( but he is gorgeous and no trouble). He is too young to go with his dad, we've agreed he will go when he is 1yr ( I hope he keeps his word!) Honesty was not one of his good points!! We had fab time at BX. mail soon kyx

There's no stopping that AllieBongo is there?

Welcome btw! We're having a big Northern Meet-up in July that you are welcome to. It's in Manchester and some Mumsnetters are travelling from the South and sharing hotel rooms.

hi, tnx for invite I would like to come along ( never been to Manchester ( how do i find out who's going amongst southern mums?). Anyway u have all been so kind. I thought I would just run some backgrd info... married 17yrs - separated 3yrs divorce final last May. Met my 3mths old son's dad on a bonafide dating site!!! Anyway he is a mental health soc worker ( caring prof - i thought) Was really happy (never thought i wld meet anyone again... I gave up work 10yrs ago when my 1st son born anyway new man fantastic?? we agreed to have a baby and he would 'be there' for me/my son whatever the outcome of our adult relationship WRONG he left me when I was 6mos pregnant ( he gives me money for him - can't be all bad then ay! But I find it difficult with no emotional support - don't like to complain ( I shouldn't be so gullable) anyway as i said he is gorgeous and the other 2 love him lots and they are great help. That's about it really. lets e-mail soon tnx again kyx

Oooh please don't do textspeak, it makes my eyes go funny! The M/cr meet up is \link{http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk?topicid=1368&threadid=165512&stamp=060602094946\here}

i can't help it if i'm friendly and popular poobarb. I never got invited to manchester

Glad you had a nice time ky. I have a dd who's 16tmhs and ds who's 6. DH who behaves like a 5 year old. That's me!

tnx alliebongo I have no idea what dd or ds or in fact btw mean, but i guess i will learn at some point. This mumsnet is a lifesaver ( don't take that literally!) it's great and i really like exchanging msg with u all. ky x

ta! Have a look at the acronym list on the menu above.. dd is daughter and ds is son. If i told you their real names i'd have to kill you

wow cool! ky

DS - dear son , DD dear daughter and BTW - By The Way

i'm 20, have a 2yr old DS..have been single since i was 5months preggers...ex partner has nothing to do with either of us...he's never met DS....i have tried but he is not interested at all...its such a shame for DS but he is better off without a coward like that. .
ahem ahem
so, 'tis me!
it hasnt been easy..but raising children never will be easy.....but i am happier then ever, i can be proud of the person i have created and brought up....he comes to me in the morning, snuggles up with me and gives me a smile 'morning mummy'.....you cant feel lonely when you have that......a man will come into my life one day...and it will be great...but until the time comes...i am more then happy.

...anyone need a bucket? was that too sickly?

hi, sounds similiar to my situation ( i try every so often to get my son's dad to take an interest - but he won't - i don't u/stand because we planned to have him, still he's beautiful and i have no regrets - just hard work on yr own. trying to find someone to go to m/chester meet with - no luck so far. but hoping.... e-mail soon. c ya ky x

just thought I wud log in and say 'hi' not looking optimistic for me coming along to m/chester .(nice to b invited tho') .. was wondering how u all know each other? ky.
