    Best wishes for anyone needing it today.
    Well 9 years ago I was in need of Elite friends as my life was in freefall. In Feb 9 years ago I finally asked my OH to move out as his alcoholism was ruining all our lives.
    Fast forward to today. OH is 9 years sober and in the early part of next year he is moving back home. We have both had health scares in the last year and after much discussion we decided we would be better off financially and life would be easier if we shared the house again.
    He will be having a small summerhouse/shed in the garden as his lounge and to keep his books etc. ( he is paying for that ) and will sleep wash and eat indoors. We will have our own bedrooms and our own indpendence.
    So I feel for anyone having a hard time but it can and will get better.

    It is amazing just want tough love can do. It is wonderful that you are still friendly (I just need to be a little hormonal and I cannot stand my OH..... !) Keep smiling xxx

    I think it's great that school's still do this.
    I have fond memories of school dinners especially chocolate crunch with mint custard!:p

    I used to get rid of my custard in smarties tubes, smuggling it home in secret:rotfl:

    Maybe I was exaggerating. I've just had another 20 goes and not cleared the first obstacle even one time!

    I am going to Birmingham tomorrow.

    Do I prep. No.

    I search small shops.

    I am an addict. I need therapy!

    I used to love school dinners. :D:D:D:D:D

    I used to get a portion of beans 7p, and a sachet of brown sauce 3 p and pocked the other £1.40 to buy fags (I stopped smoking when I was 15, but when I am drunk I still crave a cig)
