Just to say I shall continue to follow your new diary, sound like you feel content with still trying to continue your MF journey and as long as you dont overdo it I am sure its the right thing to do. I managed it 1 1/2 years ago and is now considering taking a lower paid job which would mean more time at home so its worth it in the long term. Although I don't have any kids myself I admire the way you raise your DS, he is one lucky boy hope the events in August dont affect him too much at least he has got you.Save £12k in 25 No 49

In another development, I have been chatting with 6 new guys on pof this weekend ... yep 6... don't think any are likely to even get to the meeting up stage but its all good progress for me. Crouchy and I have got to the stage where we both have said its not going anywhere, we're more like good mates really, well, who happen to sleep together
, but he is a bit of a gok for me and is constantly trying to get me to be more positive about myself and look for a decent guy
