    Pigpen - glad you had a nice evening out ;) Hope you can sort things out so that ex-OH is at least civil to you in public

    tbh I prefer he is horrible to me in public, he'll be hated by everyone and known for his nastiness then.. plus I can handle it better knowing someone will spring to my defence.. being a girl and all

    FFP.. no I was up, I am now back in bed

    mojt - we are meeting somewhere central - probably near waterloo as most people will be coming by train. The 02 is a bit far out and the jubilee line is often closed on weekends so wouldn't be any good for those on public transport. I'll talk to froddy and we'll sort a plan and get back to you.

    Tag glad he is back and well.

    OH's son has done 2 tours out there now, been out the for last 2 Christmas's and his 21st birthday which he 'celebrate' with a can of coke and pizza!! He is now back in Cyprus, got engaged to his girlfriend, and have moved in together, and are busy planning their wedding for next year on the beach out there!
