    Good Evening :)

    DS1 and the Barbie doll have left the building to go out on the town. Phew is all I can say. I've not dared have a drink all night but I've got one now :D

    I'll attempt to tell you the highlights of the evening. I honestly can't do it justice, it been a real 'you had to be there' night. Very surreal. This might be long so if your not interested .....scroll on

    Are you kidding :D
    It's what we have all been waiting for lol. Seriously though you sound like your taking it all in your stride. So big well done for handling it so well. I'm actually 42 and cannot imagine dating a 19 year old. I have a 23 yo dd and 2 ds aged 22 and 17 fgs xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Seriously though, fair play to you. You could have gone down the route of not meeting her or inviting her round and burying your head in the sand, but you've all made the effort and I applaud you for that :A

    Thank you :A I know it's a subject close to your heart and ive appreciated your views on it from the other side. In fact I've appreciated everyone's views......and the humour :D
  • Also I have found a womble that seems to generate the maximum redemption message despite it not being reached.

    Anyone had this before?

    DS1 was born in Elgin. DD was born in Germany and DS2 was born in Blackpool. None have Scottish accents :( it's very common with army bairns who travel around a lot when they're younger. Mostly they've been educated South of the border so don't sound scottish at all. They all have very non-descript accents actually. OH has lost his accent quite a bit too.

    Ah was just trying to imagine the tones. X

    He's 19. He has brought a couple of girlfriends home before but they were 17/18 year olds and that was manageable.

    SSM I will be in bed when they get home and sleeping arrangements weren't mentioned.....on purpose on my part. What I don't know can't keep me awake :o ive got a mental block in place

    No but that headboard banging will ;)

    I was going to mention something else earlier (non-shopping-related) but I think the time has now passed. Anyway...



    [1] I am interested, and I'm sure my long posts never put people off:rotfl::rotfl:! I'll try to be a bit shorter though (oops, I'm adding to it by writing all this:rotfl:).

    [2] :rotfl::rotfl:
    (Yes, this was the part I really wanted to read.)

    [3] I'm sorry, I didn't get the joke!:o Why is that the 'wrong' thing to say?:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: It's very amusing though, whatever it is, those very sorts of things usually are!(:rotfl:) If he'd asked me, I probably would have just answered "Yes:D", had a bit of a chuckle, and then that would be that!

    [4] She certainly did, with people like you with super-human powers of being able to read how other people are feeling:rotfl:!

    I think you lose me all thereafter:o, but not to worry!:rotfl::rotfl::cool:

    Oh Savvy :D there is no joke. It's about being tactful and not necessarily saying what you think. Or maybe wanting an answer to a question but knowing that asking the question might offend.
    It was a sensitive situation where the Barbie girlfriend may have got offended that members of my family were hell bent on highlighting the age difference.
    I have no idea how she was feeling but wanted to do my best to make sure no one made her feel uncomfortable. Although that's practically impossible with the outspokenness and brutal honesty that goes on in here! :rotfl::rotfl:
