  • I had to delete the bit saying feel free to copy any pics. Sis has had a right go at me about it saying photographers should never give away their work. Please refrain from the copying the pics.

    Not that there is much worth copying :o but I would still like some control. Not all the photos are mine.
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    ok , any electricians out there? i am getting a new electric cooker and i wired my old in 14 years ago but i seem to have forgotton how to wire it in again. is it just the same as a plug? i dont want to pull the old cooker out just to find out then shove it back in again,as i doubt i will get it back in hole:o

    No its not.

    Think the thickness of old cooker cable needs to be checked as new models run at higher amps.

    Also the cooker socket maybe well out of date.

    Really think you should double check.

    Apologies to anyone I've been a bit sharp with today - you know who you are.

    And to those who have bared their souls on screen, thank you. I had no idea that failed marriages were so common. It never even crossed my mind that I would encounter so many people in similar situations to me.

    I admire those who have managed to hold their marriage together. Marriage is hard, any relationship is hard but it takes two. I'm ashamed that I allowed myself to be blinded by love and used for so many years. I'm financially ruined, emotionally drained, tired from not sleeping because of stress, worried as to where I'll live but I have the 2 most fantastic kids I could ever have hoped for.

    I don't know what the next few weeks will hold but no doubt it will be the same as the last few months - dreading the post coming in case it's another legal letter, dreading the weekend and wondering what the ex is going to ask next, jumping when my phone beeps in case it's another harassing text. I feel so much stronger than I did this time last year but it doesn't stop the hurt or the humiliation. Some day I will emulate a lot of you lovely girls and find the perfect partner second time around.

    I've had some really lovely PMs from people on here and not just today. It's so hard when all your friends seem to have the perfect little family - husband, cute kids, holidays etc. All I want is for my kids to be happy & healthy but no-one gets that though I've made the right decision, it doesn't erase the past nor is it something that you can move on from quickly.


    I've quoted your entire post because I'm sitting here with my mouth open in absolute amazement. I can relate to every single word you've posted above. Everything from not sleeping because of the stress, to dreading the post arriving, my heart sinking when my phone beeps with a new text message and when my email notifier appears on my screen to say a new email has arrived at the email address he uses to email me to harrass and bully me.

    Are you sure we're not married to the same person? We could get him for bigamy!:rotfl:

    Seriously in your post you've put everything I've wanted to say, everything I feel and wanted to share, but in a much more concise, descriptive way.

    I think you're doing a great job. You did do the right thing. You don't need me to tell you that though. We're both going to get through this somehow. xx

    If nothing else, at least you know you are not alone. Dont be scared to share and unburden yourself, you might even be helping someone else in a similar situation that hasnt quite got over the damage caused and needs words of encouragement;)
    Please don't judge me. you couldn't handle half of what I've been through.
