Something for separated or divorced Dads maybe? Or just to laugh/sympathise?

[fbm]

After over 4 years of separation my divorce finally came through just before Christmas. Everything is now sorted and I can move on.

However, something I find quite cathartic is writing... so I have penned a blog.

I intend to update every 3/4 weeks and will share some gems from the marriage/separation, some dating experiences and disasters and also offer up to date commentary on life with my new partner, the 6 kids we have between us and everything associated with that.

Good stuff mate (pt.1). How much is 50,000 points 'worth'?! The only loyalty card I have is Boots, so is it a new toothbrush or half the aftershave cabinet?

Nah... if they see it, they see it, but I doubt they will. In any event, the internet is banned at the moment! Bloody kids!

Cheers for following it by the way.

Is your ex doing a blog so we can get both sides of the story?

Dunno but unlikely I would think.

They're very good fbm, and I really can't recommend Dawn French's "A Tiny Bit Marvellous" enough to you! Oh and learn to tell the truth in shops, it's far easier and then you can all have a laugh together!

You should have just cut her

Nice story fbm.
Reminded me of a "something for the weekend,sir" story of my own.We used to live in Southbourne Grove, on the corner of Bridgewater Drive,(now a Doctor's surgery I believe).Anyway, I used to go to Dave the Barber's at the shops near there for a haircut.This was back in the 60's so I guess I would have been 15/16 at the time.Anyway one Friday night I popped round Dave's and there was an attractive young Mum in the shop taking her two toddlers for what looked like their first haircut.They were making quite a racket so I decided not to stay.Quick as a flash, Dave followed me out on to the pavement, and asked me if I wanted something for the weekend.I do believe that was the first time I'd heard the expression, though I'd like to think I've made up for lost time since.:winking:

Nice euphemism. :winking:

Mark,

How can I "subscribe" to your blog, so I automatically get the next one?

Well, you can PM me your email address and I'll add you to the "Blogmail" group I have set up to alert everyone when the next Blog is up.

You can also "Follow" the blog by clicking on the "Follow" button on the blog page itself, but I think that it relies on you checking in to Blogspot to see if there are any new entries.

Or you could just check on here as I'll probably put a post in The Pub every time I blog.

I'm not sure if there is a way of actually being automatically notified of a new blog entry... if anyone knows it, please let me know!
