Guest Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 This gives me chills cos you just don’t know what’s in store when it comes to your children’s choice of partner and apart from being obliged to warn them if your early extreme nutter alarm bell sounds when you meet them you’ve pretty much gotta stay out of it. That's it really! You can't let it destroy your life.If you read my earlier entry in this thread, you'll know I also have 3 sons from my first marriage (43, 41, 39)......and I don't even know if they're still alive. Neither does their mother last time I heard either!They all went off the rails (drugs etc) so your guess is as good as mine! Then number 4 son (second marriage) met the psycho and that was him done for.But there is light at the end of the tunnel! Because son number 5 (29) has been in the Netherlands since 2013, has a great job in IT with an international company (we're talking six figures here for a boy from Swansea who didn't even finish school), and a lovely girlfriend who actually went to Cambridge! i blame the parents You're seriously going to have to show a lot more initiative and work a lot harder than that to catch a big fish like me Six!

Looks like desperation is setting in with Six now openly making plays to try and retain TOTY!But it doesn't work like that......to qualify for TOTY it should come naturally....like the guy who could grow large! Or the "OK Boomer" man!That's natural talent! Quote
rennie Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 I know this is a wide ranging thread!However! can we please try to keep it not quite so far Quote
James in Brum Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 At the outset of this thread we were all asked to refrain from baiting, criticising and taking the piss it if each other on this thread. Some of us have shared deeply personal stories as shared vulnerability based on that. Let’s not ruin it now eh? Quote

Bender Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 There are not many threads on here that are sensible, certainly non with the gravitas of this one.Deletions will be made.Please, nicely, no more unwarranted posts on this thread, we have a wide range of other posts for that Quote
Trooper74 Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 Interesting .... my post ... in support of the mods, and commented on by 2 members, has been deleted ..... Quote

mthinesy Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Latest lockdown news has really knocked me for six.Also due my MOD1 on Thursday. Going to miss it by a day Quote
S-Westerly Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Deeply depressed. Supposed to be coming home on November 19th after 4 months away. Should be traveling from Holland so there are options but whether they'll be running is still to be seen. Also of course my relief has to be able to get to Rotterdam from his home in Croatia. Ficking Chinese plague. Quote

Ficking Chinese plague. Oh shit that’s an unknown quantity I wouldn’t relish thinking about.This is of no help but I don’t think they’ll shut the borders. Just stop people going on holiday so the next question is do you know a man with a boat who owes you a favour?! Quote
geofferz Posted November 1, 2020 Posted November 1, 2020 Well, I'm glad that I'm in Turkey, that's for sure. Quote

A drop of rose oil in 100 litres of water, then diluted again 5:1, draw out 10ml of the solution and mix down with 9 parts of more water. Dab it behind your ears while holding a dowsing rod - that’ll sort it out. Quote
