They always forgot our drinks and such.

On my last order in Essex they tried to forget 5 drinks, and not give the right change. Needless to say I spoke to the manager a couple of times :lol:

They are, although i have no vouchers for them at the moment, and they don't help a diet.

My mother has just informed me i have oil across my face. She could have told me this earlier.
I now have a flat mate... that ruined my evening. How was your pizza?

Who? I thought you were selling?

Dee, split with gf. We are selling, but he's moved in and apparently when we sell he and i should live together.

On the plus side he gave me money to buy food, however he is a vegetarian.

Lots of ups and downs.

you feeling alright!? :tongue:

I'm changing tyres on my bike, then home to cook pack lunches for him, having spent yesterday re-organising my flat.

It'll be interesting living with him, although most of the time he'll sit quietly. He has met bf however and didn't try and kill him.

Not really. Pretty bad mood but I am channeling it. :lol:

You are cooking his lunches? Lol.

Does the BF not mind that you will not be able to be alone?

I'm gonna make an enormous pasta bake, and he can take it in each day! his moods are better when he eats properly.

He hasn't objected yet... but we shall see. However given i've seen him twice in 2 weeks, him moaning about sharing me is the least of my worries, he hasn't commented about not seeing me yet, but i'm off to wales friday for some more days, so he will be seeing me even less.

He does understand why i don't want to date dee, and is shocked at how he speaks to me.

Haha just keep your fingers crossed I suppose, not much else you can do beyond keeping them both happy, and happy with each other, somehow.

Dee isn't happy about the age gap and is convinced he's taking advantage of me, but currently that is the only complaint. Gary has just said he seemed very vulnerable, and doesn't like how he talks to me.

Which given the mood dee was in when they met, he wanted to hit someone, i can live with and maybe they'll learn to tolerate each other. Just a shame dee coming ruined gary staying over.

There will be a fight eventually. To be honest it seems a bit unfair on the BF to expect him to spend any time with someone who doesn't like or trust him - maybe go to his house?

they've so far met twice, briefly. I'll try and organise a sit down meal so they can actually talk rather than dee being in a foul mood.

When i get a chance to sit down with him and sort it out without his mother going to hospital, dee moving in, me going to wales, we'll work it out, but currently i have no chance to see him again until late next week.

I'm hoping dee has enough respect for me to accept that its what i want and he can't change that. Dee has his own room he can stay in, and i've got my bedroom so they don't have to see each other.

I just wish my life was simple. :biggrin:

Good luck with that it may help though which would be useful. I'm not sure he will feel very valued when you see Dee daily and him ever week or so, lol! Hmm, well all you can do is hope but Dee doesn't sound like the most reasonable person ever.

It is relatively!
