He left for scotland which was doubly painful coz he left to his biological dad, who had never ever been involoved in thier lives..! emotionally or financially (Jamie & Bonnie) I bought the two of them up single handed, (and then again with Ollie)..!

It was just after I took an overdose and was in hospital 5 days, it was a bad one..!
But..now he's coming back the ticket is return in two weeks but his sister is gonna do all she can to get him to stay ( me as well but I mustn't push it)..
Ollie of course wants him home, Jamie was basically his father figure. he's 12 years older than Ollie..

God, what a story Jan!
I will keep all crossed for you and your little family that you all get what you want xx

Good morning Expat,

Jan went to cheap and cheerful Portugese place, I couldn't ask him in after as my parents are here and house too small so would have woken them up. Not sure what to think, he didn't say when we'd see each other again and I was hoping to see him Saturday but then he produced a present he'd bought for me in the Uk last weekend and even one for my dog!

Hi Jan-It's not so bad. There was a huge protest march yesterday in Paris-thousands of people. But the weather was gorgeous and the marchers were peaceful-just waving banners, chanting how much they hate Sarkozy, and singing and shite!:H It was more like a parade-people were standing along the side of the street to watch them go by. No violence or tearing up shite. So excited for you about Jamie coming home:l. You have beautiful children sweetie.

I think it sounds like he is a little afraid, and not wanting to overwhelm you or frighten you away.....he will be back

Chilli he's thinking of you when he's not with you, to have bought you the present and even for your dog..so that's a good sign, also could be he feels confident of a relationship that he doesn't feel he needs to set a further "date" as it's a given thing you will be seeing eachother again...

Good Morning and a very



to you all.

Woke up to a grey, cloudy sky but it is now clearing and looks like we may have some sun after all. Weather is cool tho' - a mere 12C and only going up to 16 today. So we'll be bundled up in warm jackets. It is lovely tho' after the never-ending heat of the summer.

Tips - a lovely start to your day.

Starty - glad to hear you're feeling more positive. I know that Dublin meet-up did you a world of good.

Jan - fingers and toes crossed that Jamie will stay with you. It would be so wonderful for you to have all three kids near you...:huggy

Ex - glad things have quieted down. I hate it when we get riots here. No good ever comes of the protesting and the damage they do is so unnecessary not to mention costly.

Chill dear, try and be more positive. If he didn't want to see you again, he wouldnn't have given you the presents. And a pressie for your dogger? How sweet is that? He most likely just assumes that you will be going out again and simply didn't mention it. I bet he calls or texts you today and asks about doing something on the weekend. Don't forget that with your folks visiting, he might think you'd want to spend a lot of time with them. Think positive Chilly....positive...

Am off to walk the dogger. Catch up with youz laterz. Have a great day!!

Jan I'm so excited for you.

Got several texts from an over excited daughter last night from the posh do she was at. Mr JC went to bed green with envy. She was watching Michael Parkinson interview Ian Botham live just a few feet away from her. Of course I was just wondering what she had to eat.
