The thread in Chat has gone to thread heaven. Silly Zombie thought it wasn't due to go until tomorrow so missed her chance to ask HQ to move it here.

She slept well last night and feels reasonably well this morning.

Let the chat commence!

Delurking to say bon voyage Zombie.Smile

Hello Zombie, I guess you are ploughing through different things in preparation for your trip, you appear to have such a busy week ahead of you, don't tire yourself out too much.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 10/11/2014 00:18

Hope you're getting some good sleep Zomb in amongst the organising and excitement.

I'm still here. Grin Grin Grin

I didn't get as much done today as I had planned. While I was just starting on my first cup of coffee this morning I had a phone call from my old gardener. He had worked for my late DH and me, then latterly for me for 19 years all in. He was also a close friend as was his wife. He wanted to come around to see me and I said "Of course. Please do."

Very long story cut short: He stopped coming to do the garden about 3 1/2 years ago. No explanation. Today he told me why. Scrotebag had told him one day that he didn't want him here and not to come back. I never knew about this. When I started wondering out loud to Scrote why N hadn't been around Scrote professed to have no idea.

12 hours later I am still spitting nails. HOW DARE HE? What the fuck else did Scrote do that hasn't crawled out of the woodwork yet?

Angry Angry Angry Angry Angry

It's a gift that keeps on givingWink Grin

but seriously, what a dick, I'd be fuming too. Angry and what a nasty thing to do, poor you and poor N. I hope you had a good catch up with your friend.
will you be able to employ him again? it's so good he could tell you what had happened, at least your friendship wasn't damaged irreparably. Smile

I hope worrying about what else he'd done doesn't stop you from having a good sleep tonight. can you confront him and ask? (would it worth it?)

not sure if you've seen my post but the stop over offer is still valid, MrZing said he is happy to take you to airport on Sunday. also he'd pick you up on way it back if he's around or book you a cab ahead. I think coming back is when you'll be more exhausted so I really hope you take up offer at least then and come here, have a nap, shower, food whatever you need.
I know you'd do it for me so let me/us do it for you. x

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 10/11/2014 09:23

How absolutely infuriating Angry !

What a shame N didn't mention it to you at the time, as the long friendship had been with you.

I can't see much point in asking Scrote if there's anything else; if he's that underhand he would lie anyway Angry

What a lovely, kind offer Zing and MrZing Flowers

Hope you can catch up today Zombie, put thoughts of Scrote in a box and shut the lid Smile

mummylin2495 · 10/11/2014 10:48

What a horrible person your ex is zombie. All this time of a friendship being spoiled because of an arsehole. Thankfully now both of you know the truth your friendship can continue despite a spiteful evil bastard man

ZingOfSeven · 10/11/2014 10:58

Bee

I guess you are right. why would he confess to anything else? But I guess I just couldn't resist calling him on it.

Zomb I hope you have a good day, sending you sunshine and baby smilesSmile

ChippingInAutumnLover · 10/11/2014 12:25

Put Scrote in a box and shut the lid.

He really is a total bastard isn't he :(

Still, Zombie, that's not new news and it won't do you any good spending time thinking about him.

If there are any other friends you mysteriously lost contact with, you could always get in touch, explaining about Gardener Friend?!

Do you think you and GF can be friends again now or are you too disappointed that he didn't talk to you about it before?

Less than a week to go now!! Grin. Are you more excited or more nervous?

mummylin2495 · 10/11/2014 13:15

Chipping you forgot the nails to nail down said box !

ChippingInAutumnLover · 10/11/2014 13:41

I didn't forget :)

I just thought it was a bit morbid!

I have a GOOD supply of deck nails screws for the job Grin.

ZingOfSeven · 10/11/2014 14:13

box and nails? you amatuers.

think trash compactor in Star Wars.Grin

ChippingInAutumnLover · 10/11/2014 14:15

Nah, I like the bastards to suffer a bit first.

Sorry Zombie, but he makes me so angry!

ZingOfSeven · 10/11/2014 14:36

What are you made of Chipping? Are you bionic?
Grin
that scene scares the hell out of me!Shock

Allalonenow · 10/11/2014 22:52

Well he sounds to be a tosser of some note, so just push him to the back of your mind and focus on your fantastic journey, which is now less than a week away!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope today has gone well, try to rest so you don't get overtired. Smile

magimedi · 10/11/2014 23:13

Just leave the scrote behind you, Zombie.

I bet he doesn't have all the friends, love, support & excitement about DS that you have to look forward to.

He's prolly sitting there whinging with a small can of piss lager.

He is off your radar.

Sleep well & get ready for that amazing trip you re about to make.

And don't let Zing get into your suitcase!

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

mummylin2495 · 11/11/2014 01:12

Well Zombie, it's now already tues so the countdown till Sat is going quickly., although maybe not for you. Hope you have got most things sorted out now. Good luck at your apt today.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 11/11/2014 01:37

ZingOfSeven · 11/11/2014 07:26

mummylin2495 · 11/11/2014 16:29

Hope things went ok today Zombie and that you managed to dodge the rain. What is the weather like in USA? Same as here? Have you started your packing yet or leaving it till the day before.

magimedi · 11/11/2014 22:16

Creeping out of lurkdom, Zombie to add my voice shouting damnfuckbugger, and to let you know that I am still following your posts and wishing you all the best.
I was delighted to hear of your impending adventure; what an emotional rollercoaster that will be. Have a fantastic time with your boy, and all the friends and family you manage to squeeeze into the trip! Flowers
