    So, now we know about him, does he know about us ;)

    Not as such - he knows my financial past. There are no secrets there. Apart from anything else, he needed to know that just because he was dating a stockbroker, it doesn't mean there is a mahoosive pot of money just waiting to buy him a porsche :rotfl:

    But he doesn't know about my life on here. You lot might just be too much to take in all at once :rotfl:

    Right girls. Cameras and list of coffee shops at the ready. Norwich here we come ;). Tell him to get ready for a flash mob :rotfl:.

    haha!! The worrying thing is, gally, that I quite believe you would! Thankfully there are so many coffee shops in the city that it would take you a little while to get the right one! In the meantime, the managers of all the others might just get a little perplexed :eek:

    I am sooooooooooooooooo pleased for you :T:T:T:T:T:T:T

    I think you underestimate our powers of detection though so you need to be scared :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    That has really made my day even better than being DF which has left me a bit flat strange girl that I am (that confused smiley is sorely missed)

    Yes, it would take a while if we were starting cold. However my DD is out armed with a list and is whittling it down for a list of possibles :rotfl:. Well, she would be if she wasn't playing 'hunt the hamster' at home :eek:.

    DT, I felt strangely "flat" too when I became DF - after all those years it suddenly felt quite odd not to have that same focus.

    However, I soon developed a new focus. Killer heels. And fun. :rotfl:

    gallygirl, if you know where I work it really isn't going to be too much of a task to find out which coffee shop it is ;)

    :whistle: What makes you think I haven't already :whistle:.

    Well, I haven't, but DD's hamster has been captured from her big escape so DD is now free to investigate :rotfl:.

    I think there is potential for a book deal here!
