Yep. Her parents have a cottage near wells next the sea. We borrowed her mums car, and spent a cozy week….Erm… Knitting. :wink:

Hey yeti hows things?

Been on holidays to Norfolk. No signals on anything! It was lush.

Hats are the bane if my life. Always look like a right gnome.

Ear muffs though…. :roll:

I apologise, it was aimed at who ever did.

Ummm actually it’s my second comment, and it was aimed at you after you posted a joke offensive enough to be removed by the mods.

Yay stem. I wouldn’t show her this thread either. Take all the credit!

Duckman, sorry just been through the thread and I missed your contribution, so dunno what I’ve done to offend.

The Pilot. I’ve not really given much thought to children TBH but I’d want the Childs father to be in it’s life in some way, and would like to think I could choose wisely enough if/when that happens. I think we can both agree that being honest loving and open is best all around.

Edit: hang on were you the poster of the ” joke” ? Right well, it’s removal was nothing to do with me I think the mods just watch threads like these pretty closely and that was just to close to the bone for the record I don’t agree with RIghttimes views but he’s got a perfect right to say it.

If you rub regular. 8O :lol:

Used the free one this morning 9km in 48 minutes. Can’t afford a gps watch thingy

Emma, that’s awful, but brave of you to share the experience. I’ve only ever had loving and supportive parents I can’t imagine how hard that must have been for you.

How silly all this bickering must seem to you.

Even I’ve had jelly tots. Can you not still get them then?

Emsz it does look a little like you’re playing sexual politics here. None of the remarks are neccessarily homophobic but it does look like you’re trying to push that as an agenda.

Geetee some people on this thread have used the word despicable when describing a family without a mother or father, seeing as it is impossible for a gay couple of either sex to provide that they must therefore think gay families are despicable as well. A quick google reveals Rod Stewart (old singer) to be father at 60+ and Bob Geldof a single father at 59 adopting his ex wife’s (died of drug overdose, shall we discuss lifestyle choices of gay people now?) child. No one mentions them at all.

This thread has been a thinly disguised “oh look at the Gay men buying a baby” From the start

To lighten the mood somewhat; I was grumbling to the gf who’s taking up most the dining room with course work * points to mound of text books where there was once a gf* about this thread and she went White as a sheet

“isn’t it a bit soon to be talking about families?”

Haha LOLing at her.

So it’s not about the parents being gay….but if me and my gf have a child, pilot and Trailmonkey think it’s wrong, so it is about us being gay?

You can’t have it both ways guys

Tbh guys there didn’t seem to anything for me to stick around for…

S’ok, though l’ll come and say hello every now and again

Cool, **** behave this time, ok?

*hugs*

Good luck mrgibbons!!! Hope she says yes!

Yeti? Are you back my love?

Righttimerightplce I think that makes him a human being with all the normal human failings. I’d imagine you could find any number of straight couples with those personality traits as well

Emma’s right, this is tosh

Oh come on imagne he had a history of abusing children would that matter?

Oh right so now we’re just making stuff up to cover for the predjudice?

So re-reading all of this it mostly comes down to his age then? And seeing as no one here has any idea how long he’s got Left or how healthy he is it’s really a bit of a non argument

Yeah I sort of figured they were either trying to hard or I just didn’t get the joke. Either way, not my finest moment

Ton when you flounced of melhworld did they notice? Had a look at it a couple of nights ago. They are very…. Cliquey aren’t they?

*notes for future reference who the massive homophobes are*

Rightplacerighttime Who are you to judge who’ll make good parents or not? For the record I think Elton John lives in America pretty permanently so he’s not avoiding any rules really, he’s abiding by local ones as far as i can tell. You mention his previous lifestyle, what’s that got to do with anything?

I think statisically gay parents make as much of a success and as much as a failure of raising children as the rest if the population. Personally I think it’s long term stability over most other things that makes a difference. Being the child of loving affectionate responsible people makes for happy families regardless of the sex of parents.

Yes 62 is quite old, but everyones parents die eventually and some ‘before their time’ to accidents and so on. Life goes on, y’know?

Don’t judge. There’s nothing to say the child won’t be happy, loved and content.

Still feels bloody cold.

I’d hate to get goop between my toes

Johnnyc you’re lush, thanks *kisses*

Given the temperature at the minute Sharki, definately socks on :wink:

“Love custard”

I don’t know whether to laugh or eeeuuuwwwww :lol:

Magical powers.

Rachel. Sorry tea got in the way. I was a bit stalkerish looking through some of your posts on here before. I like the phrase! I thought that’s what you meant. It was seeing how you got on on here that made me start to post rather than just reading.

Rachel, RLE?

Run more. I really enjoy when I can motivate myself to get out. Put on some weight. Stop reading horoscopes LOL. Stop buying all those shit mags like OK and Heat. Work harder at college. Stop overthinking/ reading too much into stuff. Drink less. Stop smoking. Eat healthier. Wear less eye make up (maybe)

Has to be physical. Has to have a set of rules. Has to be competitive.

Just asked my dad!

I’ve had swede, red cabbage, prune stuffing and was made to eat sprouts and parsnip (yeuch). I’m a trumping machine. :D

Hateful things. The only use is food fights.

Did a last minute dash to the local Tesco for some ingredients for a curry and it was a bit mental. One woman had pints and pints of milk. She must have been planning to bathe in the stuff. Loads of bread left though.

Just chilling. Mad day tomorrow running about. Lunch at my mum and dads then supper at hers. So quiet night in in front of the telly. Maybe go out to meet mates at pub.

OMG that’s awful. Losing a pet is always hard

The last bit of the wine we had with dinner

Goodies?

The nearest I’ll be getting to exercise is the walk from mine to my parents, and then the stagger from there to g/f’s parents then another wobble and stagger home again

Moisturize boys
