    mhoc, I've just read about yesterday. It didn't go badly then if youngest son gave you an extra long hug, that's a sign he still loves you but perhaps can't say it. I was worried about it for you but quite honestly, he's still your son and loves you but keeps his life private. Do not fret over this, one of mine is quite secretive about his life and I'm used to it, were still very close though.

    Drop him a text, or email, if you haven't already and just tell him how pleased you were to see him. You must have been nervous inside but happy he was there, even if you had to stretch the food and they shared a bath, probably. That doesn't matter, as long as the bridge is on it's way being repaired xx

    Extremely good advice.

    My eldest lives in his own world... to the point that I never know where in the world he is, I just make sure I message him every day and try ringing ever couple of days but rarely get to speak to him. He has now got in the habit of messaging me on FB or WA so I wake up to something... often a picture of a plane with no explanation but often sometimes there are days that he disappears... usually into the drug triangle! :D:D:D:D

    Aiming to get rid of my mortgage by 2020. just trying to do the maths and I need an additional £675 per month!! I don't think that possible tbh. I'll probably move my TSB savings to my mortgage though as I'm sure I read that it was dropping down from 5% to 3%. Its not much but every little helps :)

    It will have a cumulative effect... so don't worry about it to much... if you need an extra period of time just add it on at the end x

    So that every single post that I contribute to this thread is on topic I would just like to say I am an elite 11+ member and I hear the unjust silence of my opinions whilst I am shopping in supermarkets mainly. Just sayin.
