And the MK Dons say that their only problem is storage and transport of kits........

(ours too :rotfl: )

So anyone who is prepared to go and collect promptly please let me know

There should not be a problem collecting from MK tellmeitsfriday, gallygirl and pania all offered to collect from Milton Keynes something to do with TKMaxx and IKEA being nearby :rotfl::rotfl:

I think tellmeitsfriday was going to get in touch with you if she hasn't perhaps you would like to pm her and if she is not available we could get in touch with one of the reserves

What language am I starting to study? Ancient Greek
Why? To help me with my OU MA in Classical Studies

Evening all,
I have decided that as part of my 50 day challenge I need to get a bit fitter. Yesterday I was out cycling with the OH and some friends and was absolutely mortified to find that I was completely out of breath within the first few minutes :eek::o OH couldn't believe how much I struggled either as he found it relatively easy! Not sure on the specifics yet, but just know that I really need to start doing some sort of regular exercise...

On the plus side though, I cheered myself up by coming home and buying your book Memory Girl. Looking forward to reading it when it arrives.:j

Thank you all for your thoughts and sharing your experiences of toxic family members.

Very, very long story - cut very short. My biological family is severely dysfunctional: alcoholic father; alcoholic brother; passive-agressive, narcissistic, enabling mother.

My role as eldest child within the addiction chaos was that of family "caretaker" - from my earliest memory I looked after everyone, a very common role for the eldest child in dysfunctional families.

Alcoholic father died 23 years ago; broke contact with alcoholic brother last year (best decision for my own family). Have now reached end of the road with my mother. As they say in addiction circles, "I'm done" - all I want is to leave the chaos behind; all I want now is my serenity.

So, yes after she set me off again today and I spent the day stuffing food in my mouth trying to squash down all the negative emotions - part of my 50 day plan will be to eliminate contact with my last remaining toxic family member, my mother. Feeling calmly positive and very much at ease for having finally reached a decision.
