    Soappie - sorry to not hear about the lack of exchange. The trumpet is hilarious and really hard to do, he is the only one who can get a sound out of it and as it is so tiring he only does a few minutes at a time.

  • Oh well here I am again on a Friday night feeling maudlin......

    ......I loved being part of things, part of life with lots of friends going out then after 11 years of OH not liking any friends lost cotanct with them, no social circle to speak of and here I am on my own again. Trying to think not forever, think positively and to share my life again with someone in future.

    With someone who loves me for who I am, every single part of me I am and don't let go (as the song goes)

    OH has not responded to any texts sent tonight, supposed to be on a work night out (?) or a missed call. Too busy eh??????
