    I am still reading but I have no horse stories so can't contribute as much as I'd like!

    Thanks Mrs A, love a hug!

    The man only contacts me when he's lonely, I think. I want to talk whenever, something interesting, exciting, sad etc is going on. I don't like him disappearing off the face of the earth. Basically, it's not working for me. Perhaps, I've changed or maybe grown-up at last - who knows!

    This chap who wants to take me to lunch, works in a building near by, I've chatted to him when I've sat outside on bench with a cup of coffee (sorry KT). He's miles younger than me, so it is only lunch! Just thought after the awful week at work I deserved a treat...
