Fancy the company of a very-awake 3 year old?...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0

I swear I am not making that up.
Oh my - there are some very odd people out there - I hope you ran a mile! This is the sort of behaviour that makes me glad to be single :T0 -
35, female, single from Cumbria (any more northeners out there?), two kids aged 4 (almost 5) and 10months.
Have to agree with you on some of that too dolly. There is always good with the bad, and I wouldn't have had half the life experience I'd had if got married and had kids younger.....and if I hadn't stuck with hubby for what 15 years wouldn't have two gorgeous kiddies. Still, don't want to think I'll be single for ever. It just seems that taking risks didn't seem so scary when I was younger!This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

Hi All :hello:,
Have been reading this thread during the past few days in work and just wanted to say hi.
Marleyboy - you sound almost too good to be true...:p :rolleyes: - are you sure there isn't a catch somewhere?....:p - such a shame that I'm 43 and live in South Wales:rotfl:
I've used a few dating site in the last 3 years and although there have been the odd couple of 'strange' people, I have also made at least 4 friends that I keep in touch with.
I'm still 'sort of' single (have been seeing someone for approx 5 weeks now - via a dating site) but would still like to join in if possible....
Take care and hope to catch up soon,
T to STrying to Save......

Hi all,
I thought I was the only thirtysomething ...no house ...no kids.....no nothing really ,type left in the UK.This thread is just fabulous.I have decided to deal with my mindless spending, and stop buying (tons) of rubbish I dont need. My weakness is overpriced cosmetics, and Im surrounded by a mountain of various lotions and potions that are still new in boxes (Ebay here it comes) . Yet I am have having to be very thrifty at the supermarket ,and cant really afford anything else,even afford lunch for work.
I think I have had what you call a lightbulb moment.
Im 33 in a few weeks ,and feel a little low about having nothing apart from a pile of perfume.I appreciate Each and Every win. I thank every comp poster from the bottom of my heart :A0 -

It could be worse bebelle - you could have nothing at all. And 33 isn't so bad (just done it myself!). Get that stuff on ebay and you'll be able to eat soon enough;)Reality check - hit rock bottom on 15 Dec 2008 with unsecured debts of £29,136 and not enough money to live on
:j NOW DEBT FREE!!!! :jI try to take life one day at a time but sometimes several days attack me at once

Hello bebebelle! Don't feel low - I think we're all guilty of the odd (ok then regular) splurge on things we don't really need - but surely that is what Ebay is for?!

P.s three and a half stone lighter since last November?? What is your secret?!0
