[TrinityIsLovingHerLittleRhino]

quit beating yourself up about things

[TrinityIsLovingHerLittleRhino]

enjoy your mag

[Hassled]

He's tired. You said so yourself. You're not only being reasonable, you're being a good and caring parent. Top marks.

Is it a quality magazine, though?

[BitOfFun]

Blimey, all the things that would get done in my house if I felt a smidgeon of guilt!

[Pheebe]

Thanks

Fortean times so although no trashy, not exactly high brow

Coffee is made, juice and snacks are ready...here I go

[TheOldestCat]

Good lord, no you are NOT being unreasonable. Enjoy your well-earned rest!

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

What magazine?

I'm arsing around on here and ignoring the children and the housework smug in the knowledge I have had a very productive day.

Though I feel twangs of guilt having practically ignored the DC in the park earlier due to a very attractive man.

How dare you sit down, get up, that ironing won't do it's self, and you could do with running the hoover round, what about the cooker, it could do with a clean,,,what did you say..cough?

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

Ooh Fortean Times, good choice!

[ItsGrimUpNorth]

I think you need therapy to feel guilty about such a thing.

Erm, it's good for children to see their parents doing stuff that doesn't involve them?

[BitOfFun]

Ooh, fit bloke eh? Sorry Pheebs, but you're reading your mag, right?

[BouncingTurtle]

YABVVU.

You should be on Mumsnet, not wasting your time on magazines

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

Oh bof he was bloody gorgeous. Huge blue eyes, fab tight corkscrew afro, grubby manly hands. He's a single dad and his daughter was a sweetheart too.

Swoon.

He will be in the park the same time tomorrow, he mentioned it casually as we left

Swoon some more.

[BitOfFun]

Yeeeeay! He sounds gorgeous - he must be gay

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

Not that I'm interested in men anymore...just the sex please....

[BitOfFun]

Yeah, but sex with fit men is gooooood

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

Oh I know, stop it now.

Sigh.

it's a good day for leisurely afternoon sex

[BitOfFun]

< flustered >

[VinegarTitsThePorker]

So this is how you meet single good looking men?

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

Just why do all the attractive people suddenly appear when it's sunny? Do they hibernate?

[TheDevilWearsPrimark]

Oh BoF it's looking good for me coming bank holiday Saturday btw, looks like ex may be having the kiddos. Woohhooo.

[BitOfFun]
