    Apologies ladies as I have had to shorten and abbreviate names on the stars chart as I was over the character allowance - or so it said!!! - I can only gues that the hearts take up more than one character and we must have a longer list than usual - we havent as many full lists but overall I think we have more people on the list so will have to watch this - I had to delete my basic rules to get your hearts on natty!!! couldnt ahve you not getting your 5 red hearts!
    I will give it some thought this week.

    I hope those of you affected by shortened names wont be offended.

    this is really strange as we had one more name on the list last week and had more red hearts and I still had all the 'rules' on - me thinks the programme controlling posts must have had a blip!!!!

    froddy - like you I'm still hoping to meet someone and have a family, but it seems less and less likely each year. And it does mean that I have to know I can support myself without any help if I lose my job!

    It's nice to find someone in the same boat IYKWIM! I'm proud of the fact that I can support myself and I also have to make sure I have savings for many reasons, and I overpay my mortgage as much as I can cos I know I can claim that back if necessary. Also, I have a thingy that pays out just before my 40th - am planning on a big holiday if the family thing doesn't work out.

    Maybe you and I should take Hampshire by storm! :rotfl:

    Blimey - Toots - that's on the edge of reason and biology!

    I'm going to be really nosey here and ask (and you can always not answer!). Were they conceived naturally rather than via hormone thingies and what was the incidence of Downs Syndrome which is the thing us older ladies are warned off having late babies for.
