    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Feeling a bit brighter now - I will go on the date but I'm just going to ask him outright about the drinking.

    I will find out pretty quickly if he's being honest with me, and as I'm lonely and broken hearted anyway, if I have to dump him I can't really feel much worse! Oh dear, that doesn't sound very positive does it?? But you know what I mean!

    More wine?? :D

    was it Darren or was DS winding me up? I only went out of the room for about 30 secs...

    Snaggs, if he has got a problem with drink he won't tell you as he probably won't even admit it to himself. Just gauge the situation - you are a smart cookie.

    It was Darren!! But then again no-one in soap land ever gets their 'happy ever after', so it makes sense! :confused:

    True - I AM NOT going to fall for this guy though :rolleyes: :o, so as long as his drinking doesn't affect our date(s), it wont be a problem. I'll obviously be more cautious if I start to think it could go somewhere.

    Ryan has just seen a photo of Agyness Deyn and asked if she has Aspergers because she looks just like him!

    She really does look like him, a few people have said it over the last couple of years (Bunny I think was one of them?), but I am amazed that he sees the resemblance too. Weird!
