    I believe in fate, I think what's happened is lovely, you go for it girl :T

    But remember you should never say never... ;)

    That is so wierd Rainmac you took the words right out of my mouth!! :T

    I was just about to say to both Bikerchick and Mum2one ' never say never' it's kind of my mantra for life!! As we never know what might happen or how we will react or what we might do in the future etc etc so I am always saying it about life in general.:D

    Hi everyone... sorry I haven't been around lately but I just can't 'do' the thread right now. Have so much going on at home and it all just seems to happen at once. Sounds like everyone is having a hard time and I feel so bad for not being here for you. I love you all.

    JS I don't know what has happened but someone said something about your dad moving back in. i can only imagine the hell you will be feeling over te next few months whilst he just traipses in and out of your life as he pleases but know that I am always here to give you my support and love x

    Hi all, just wanted to say sorry I've not been tuning in that much in the last few days and it's gonna get worse before it gets better, as I've just been told I can move house in 9... yes 9 days!:eek:
    I'm soooo not organised..........
    I've sorted a huge amount for a car boot (on sunday, crossed fingers);)
    and a car load for the local charity shops... there still seems to be too much stuff!!!! (I'm downsizing to a 2 bed from a 3)

    Any tips would be gratefully received and I promise to nip back in now to look
    x Thanks x Will miss u all

    MrsGibbs.. how exciting!! Don't forget to keep a carrier bag handy with essentials so that you always have them such as toilet rolls, baby wipes, bin bags etc etc. Make sure your boxes are clearly labelled and you pack the things you use most first so they're all together.. then they can go in the van first and come out last so they're at the top of the pile!! Good luck and enjoy every second.. we will miss you!! oh and one last thing.. Pot Noodles hahahaha!!!xx

    You lot are so bad!
    We've both been married before and when we met (on Valentines Nights) we actually had a conversation about second marriages and both of us said we'd never do it again.
    I've been divorced for four years, he's been divorced for seventeen years! My last relationship which ended a year ago was with mr 'totally wrong' and have kinda stayed in since then.
    I was working in the pub on Valentines night, and his son forced him go out, so I think fate played a hand in us meeting.

    as the other nice lady said, never say never..........valentines ngt very romantic..........instead of a tradational bridesmaid I could always loan out Miss Hoodie!! x :rotfl:
