    I know - cos a group of nuns are going to steal my coat arent they...even worse I know both times they have 'tried' to deliver to my flat they have only rung my bell as the guy upstairs works from home and always takes in parcels - they are sooo lazy - its only one more bell for goodness sakes!

    I feel better. sleep is a cure for so many things! Now I really do want some food and some blackcurrant Beechams. I wonder what I can eat?

    and I might burn some oil to get rid of the stuffy nose.

    So Maz, should we start saving now?

    errrr, can i just get meeting his parents out the way first...!

    there's no way anyone needs to start saving for that... he'll only be divorced in a couple of weeks...

    even if i did decide i was gonna marry him, there's the small matter of whether he would feel the same!

    And of course divorcees are always tough nuts to crack... i know i failed before!

    I think if i'd already been married and had a big hoohaa wedding, i would feel like an idiot getting all excited about it all over again... and altho i wouldn't want a massive wedding as such, i don't really want to have to go low key just because he'd already had his 5 minutes of fame...

    And i'd need a pretty big party afterwards to fit you all in! and so it won't be abroad!
