Clearly you do, but I won't challenge these cultural structures. Maybe Martin is the one - maybe you're driven mad by lust :awesome:

I tend to have too many posts in the HOC but I have not been posting much so I look slightly less sad :mmm:


Oh yes, he's just so amazing.... actually i'm seeing someone!!!

Only slightly?

It would probably help if we didn't go for 4 hour motorbike rides first! But tbf he's happily paying for everything as i told him i can't afford to go out with him, so i haven't found anything else wrong with him, which in a couple of months, is rare for me.

Haha I like that. "he pays for everything ergo I am staying with him" :tongue:

I tried to pay at a cafe saturday , he insisted on paying, so the owner (who i see regularly) insisted it was free, got back to mine and he insisted on paying for food, and when i said i needed to get a pint of milk, he insisted on getting that too!

He's willing to work on bikes, a gentleman and took my canoeing which i hadn't done in ages, and makes me laugh, so I'm happy.

Sounds like a nice guy, and that's the most important thing. Now you just need to make sure he has career prospects and strong swimmers :tongue:

Just won't be until retirement, so he's thinking of doing further education now, so he has a qualification when he can't do it any more. But he doesn't want to go back into IT

I'm sure he could get into Essex after a couple of A levels :awesome:

What does he want to do?

He's trying to work out, he's got a good 10 years to sort out qualifications though. He's very good at computers but finds it boring. I said sometime other than at 11pm we'll have a look

Maybe he would like to become a scholar, or a teacher.

He'd be a good teacher, but we'll see. I'll start with getting his corners up to being as fast as mine and we'll go from there :biggrin:

Haha good you have your priorities in order :tongue:
oh yes :tongue: first couple of rides i started with him on front, then he asked me to lead and saw why i follow less experienced people. although possibly going out with crazyjoyce later this week and i''m certain he'll lose me as he's a better rider
I have no idea who that is but fair enough. I've only been on a bike once and that was a small dirtbike we "acquired" and fecked about with in fields and the like. I would have to follow on a pushbike.
