    I hope your OH is right Cinny, and your brother will realise what a rubbish relationship he's been stuck in once he's out of it! I'm kind of waiting for that penny to drop with my friend, her ex broke up with her a couple of months ago and he treated her like dirt when they were together but he's still stringing her along in a 'I don't want you but I don't want anyone else to have you' way which is making me so mad! They're both coming to our friend's wedding next week and he sent her a text asking if she was still going and if she was bringing a date (which she isn't) and ended up telling her that he can still see them together 'at some point' but that can't happen if she gets with anyone else in the mean time! :mad: Ooooh it makes me so mad but I can't really say anything because if she does get back together with him I'll be the bad guy for telling her to dump his sorry a$$!

    You are completely lovely Tete, maybe you should have stayed put in the craggy thing and waited for a sexy single man to save you... 'Thanks Mr Middle-Aged Beardy Man, but I'll stay where I am until a more suitable rescuer comes along!' ;) I don't get the whole 'nice guys with horrid girlfriends' thing either, why do they want a difficult life?!

    We have a Vax too, I didn't have much choice in the matter, OH got mad, broke our old hoover, chucked it out and bought a Vax one day! It's really good though, has really strong suction (hehe ;))

    ETA: Meant to mention... how exciting about your event Dinah! I want to see photos! All this retweeting stuff is intriguing... I really need to learn how to tweet! :D

    Argh, GFK are useless, the reason they haven't offered me an assignment in ages is I'm marked as a non-current assessor, but to become current I'll need a new bloody account. So thats on tonights list, can we get a full list post D?

    Yup, zip it - I've made that mistake before (I was proved right in the end, but still!)

    Aww thanks NIM :) Thing is he had a control freak ex who he hated so I don't know what he wants really - idiot. Tell me more then Dinah about this match, is he tall? Not sure I'm really ready TBH but can't hurt to look!

    Yeah I thought purple was Animal but now I'm not so sure! Everything I read bamboozles me - I wan't made for hoovering!

    If someone RTs your RT Cinny, would Dinah be able to see THAT one as well or just yours? It's all very complicated!

    Tall would be the 5% that he fails on. He's 5"11. But he's a keen walker, member of English Heritage, desperately wants to get married and have a family, financially secure, currently taking a year off after being made redundant to write his first book, cracking sense of humour, absolute gentleman (holds doors open, very polite to ladies etc) lots and lots of friends, cheeky chappie smile and looks (all my friends describe him as 'if young ant and dec were to make a baby...which is actually quite scary), 31 so ready to settle down, takes good care of his mum (dad not on the scene), but yes, shorter than you.

    How important is the height thing?
    Just cause something is "SUPPOSED" to be a certain way, doesnt mean it has to be. I'm D's toyboy after all :P

    Oooh he sounds lovely Dinah! 1" isn't much really, it's not like he's 5'6! Ahhh go on, meet him Tete! :)

    If you were to put your mouse over the retweet, a little arrow to the right pops up. Click on that and it brings the tweet up on the right hand side of the page and underneath will say 'retweeted by XXXXXXX and others' then list the people.

    I spend too much time on Twitter :D

    And this mystery guy sounds lovely! Do it Tete (well, if you're ready :A)

    He is lovely, but I'm panicing now that he might be 5"10 not 5"11! Not usually the place where women joke the extra inch counts!

    Argh am I awful? It's quite important to me actually - I went out with someone who was about 5'6" for four years and always hated that aspect ... and men lie about their height, if he says he's 5'11" that translates as 5'9" usually! Argh I don't know it's not a veto as such, I sound really shallow don't I? Anyway - you can say it's only 1" but you're not destined for a life in flat shoes! (sounds very dodgy that doesn't it? THAT would be a veto haha!)

    Sorry lowered the tone.
