    Ho, burtha. I think we're all around still. Just RL is giving us the runaround, well, RL is giving me the runaround anyway.
    Am I moving? Am I not moving? Who would know? Certainly not the Estate Agents or Solicitors, that's for sure.

    Hope you are still happy in your new home. Any movement on the old house? Is 33mw still imagining that he is selling some des res in Mayfair?

    Poor deluded fool. When it is all over I bet he will be more upset about losing money than losing the love and respect of his children. Idiot!

    I know we desperately needed rain, well the gardens round here certainly did, but not too much please, and not when I have no option but to go out in it.

    How's the running going burtha?

    Good luck in the marathon Burtha.

    Sorry you still don't know when/if you move monna, you would think in this day and age these things would be quick?

    Hoping everyone's well.

    Gosh burtha, very well done. Be very proud of yourself. You have had every excuse to sit at home and mull over the tough hand you have been dealt. Instead you have put yourself out there and succeeded in reaching all of your goals. You are an inspiration.

    First Anniversary First Post I've been Money Tipped!
    Both Grandpickles to be are growing and mum's bumps are getting bumpier! both daughters most happy but at the stage of growing babies where they are tired all the time poor loves. A visit to the city for supplies this morning furnished Frieda who is DD1s bump with a couple of lovely little summer sleeveless romper/sunsuits with little frills on the shoulders and ruched elastic round the neckline. If we get a warm September as we did when DD1 was born they will keep picklekins nice and cool, one is pink and the other blue and white stripes. Charity shops seem to have a great deal of brand new stock in for children at most reasonable prices.

    Ok ......
    So .....
    I'm divorced
    :j:j:j:j

    3mw is still the same , kids are now deleting his 16 sec voice mails , when he can be bothered ....
    It's been a strange week ....
    43 percent of his pension and 75/25 of anything left of the house
    So stood my ground , battered and bruses , but I'll live ,
    Now just need to rebuild from here ..
    Thank you to everyone on here , when I've ranted and lost the will to carry on . You where there , the times I have had no one else ,I had you .
    Even just to read along ,to know that normal life was going on ,keeps things real .
    So onwards and upwards .
    Xx
