tis is Alan, my Ball Python. this is Missy.

THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!!! can i have them if you get bored looking after them????

i understand what you're saying TTV but i'd just like to try n put a few points across here, just to even the male/female perspective on this issue. the first part of my reply is ,presumably , what people percieve when they look at purely the FACTS. the second paragraph is like a window into the background of the real issues at work here. 1) the "perception": he had to move out and so doesn't see the kids as much as he would like. he pays her decent money which he has no say over how it's spent. he won't get a penny out of the house when she's sells it. she can go out EVERY friday n get p1ssed up. she can sit on her @rse all day, while he works 3 jobs just to make ends meet. 2) the reality: this is my story.. i am married (since 1997) and have a 4 yr old and a 6yr old... 2 and a half years ago my husband ,completely out of the blue, informed me that he wasn't happy and that he wanted a break "just to get his head straight.......(we had been in a happy,loving relationship for 16 years previous to this).. anyway, 2 weeks after he moved out,leaving me with a 3 year old and a 16month old, i found out that he was seeing someone else....nice,huh!! anyway , that fizzled out , as these things tend to do. we gave it another shot,for our own sakes aswell as the kids'. but after a few months it became apparent that things were not working out, i'd seen a side to him that i never even knew existed and could not get past the betrayal, tbh. so, we decided to make a clean break. while he looked for a place to live, we re-mortgaged our marital home in order for him to put down a deposit on a new place.we agreed that me and the children continue to live in the family home, as this would cause the least upset to our kids (maintaining stability for them was our number 1 priority).my husband having residential custody was not an option, as he is a much higher earner than me, and there is NO WAY on this earth that i would live without my boys. my ex pays me £250 a month (which i think is more than reasonable from his point of view ) for 2 young children.............. he comes round twice a week to have tea with our boys (mealtimes are very important to maintaining a family-bond i think) and the boys stay with their dad most Friday nights into Saturday daytime.we are very amicable and have always maintained that our own feelings about issues that we may have, come second to the welfare of our kids. if the boys see their parents are comfortable in each others company, then the parental unit that they know is still intact......we are always saying to them that just because mummy n daddy don't live together doesn't mean we're not a family....i feel desperately sorry (for the kids) that other "grown-ups" can't see past their own selfish wants to make their own offsprings wants and needs the priority...(trust me, i sometimes WANT to wrap a baseball bat round my ex's head for what he did to our family, but at the end of the day that wouldn't make my kids hate him, nor love me any more) and any parent who thinks that badmouthing their ex in front of their kids will have that effect , is also sorely mistaken.... anyway, the point i was trying to make, was that anyone looking in from the outside would see, he had to move out and so doesn't see the kids as much as he would like.he should've thought of that whilst he was thinking of having an affair! he pays her decent money which he has no say over how it's spent.money doesn't go far these days, and it's not just about feeding n clothing them.......it's keeping them warm at night, paying for the electricity they use,school trips etc, it all adds up...these children are ours 50/50, and so, the cost of taking care of ALL their needs should be met by both of us 50/50, yes??? he won't get a penny out of the house when she's sells it.he's already had his share of the equity out of the house, but to outsiders it will look like he's got nothing from any future sale. she can go out EVERY friday n get p1ssed up.,whoopdy doo!! one poxy night a week, when he can go out the other 6, if he so desires!! she can sit on her @rse all day , while he works 3 jobs just to make ends meet. aswell as being a fulltime mum, i work 2 part time jobs (one of which i do at home, when the kids are in bed) and 2 casual jobs, so i make that 5 in total!!! anyway, i hope that i have made my point about how things may look and how they REALLY are. truth is only relative to your perception of it. Saint Lard, i hope that you can come to some sort of mutually satisfactory agreement with your ex. it is heartbreaking to think that some women use their kids as weapons, and it makes me angry and embarrassed that they belong to the same gender as me. wow, ive waffled on for ages!!! sorry!!! (that was better than a counselling session, and cheaper!!)

oh, it's an evening game!!! well, that's a good enough excuse to use if you don't manage to sell out this one,eh!!!

well, i have to say that my GP (big-up to Dr Meadows) and all the other doctors at chessel practice in bitterne are really good... really understanding and take an interest in their patients. just wish the doctors and consultants in hospitals seemed to be quite as quick at treating patients as the local GP's do.!!!......recently my son has twice been in hospital with serious leg infections.......the last time i took him , we arrived at the Paediatric Assesment Unit at SGH and were met by a lovely friendly nurse who took my son's ob's and background information......once she'd finished she informed me that we were the only ones waiting to be seen by the doctor, so should be within 20 minutes or so...........every now n then a couple of doctors would walk past "consulting " each other (having a gasbag, in other words)................2 and a half fu*king hours later the doctor shows up all smiley and happy....by this time the infection on my sons leg had DOUBLED in size, and was causing him a great deal of discomfort!!!!!...no prizes for guessing, i was slightly p1ssed off!!! and then ,just to add insult to injury, 3 days later when we were allowed home we had to wait 6 f*cking hours for my sons prescription to arrive from the pharmacy (and even then we only got it because a nurse went down there herself and virtually demanded they made the meds up for her there n then!!) it was only antibiotics FFS!!! nothing complicated!!!! twas a f*cking joke!!! :smt093 all that said tho, i would much rather have the NHS than what the Yanks have.........where the poor cannot afford even basic medical treatment....tis wrong.......

now = teeth whitened/veneered... 2 years time = boob job (not to enhance, just to lift) 5 years = facelift (gravity is seriously starting to affect my body!!!!).......if i move to the moon, would i look younger and more 'pert' do ya think????:confused:

there were loads in Weston today too (slummin it, i suppose) :smt042 i had four of the bu99ers on my front door this afternoon!!!......

i do agree with what you're saying, however where do you draw the line??? a driver doing 35mph in a 30 zone knows they are breaking the law too, but should they be tried for murder if they are involved in an accident and kill another driver/passenger or pedestrian??? you can't really say that speeding is a more/less serious breakage of the law than drink driving, as both actions pose a significant and serious risk to public safety........

ahem!!!..........i iz a :smt061

well i happen to like it, but then again i'm not one for making changes, i been with AOL for about 5-6 years.... altho i have to admit that i have seriously been thinking about buying a dongle thingy and then i wouldn't need to pay for my BT landline or AOL..... but it is purely from a financial perspective rather than i'm unhappy with AOL.

unfortunately, yes i am and fortunately, yes i can!! (and i still think that calling it Perry sounds pretentious!) :yawinkle:

Now make up your mind DSM, i can't be an 'old girl' and a 'kid' at the same time....

i couldn't give a rat's a$$ HOW they go in, so long as they bloodywell DO!!!! COYR!!!!!

******* get in!!!!! i can't believe "f o o k i n g" won't go thru the filter!!!

well i'm fairly confident that the "game of two halves" theory will be forthcoming!!! keep the faith people!!!!

:smt038 that was fab!!!! had a big stoopid grin on my face the whole way thru that!!!

LOLectomy!!!!!!!!:smt043

i have tried on numerous occasions to watch Saints games online thru Justintv, but every time i type in the website address (or even use a link someone else has posted) AOL says that it cannot find the website. however if i use Mozilla Firefox it finds it no problem....:confused: does AOL have some sort of barring on website that stream live events to unpaying users, or is there another possible explaination??? i'm not really THAT bothered about it as i can simply use Firefox instead, but it just seems weird,that's all.........

cheers for that guys!!!! i was looking for our game, but couldnt find it, so fanx..

cut the grass go for a walk/bike ride clean the windows wash the car deadhead the flowers bit of DIY watch t4/e4 playstation/xbox/wii go shopping volunteer at a shelter for the homeless visit an elderly neighbour the list is endless................. HTH

i happen to love WS ...................................... in the same way an abused child 'loves' it's abuser...... i would have to say that i wouldn't wanna give anyone on here AIDS,apart from Saint George..........his self righteousness knows no bounds......(i love it when him and Minty faceoff in a 'global warming/cooling/manmade climate change debate) i'm always cheering for Minty when they kick off!!!! :smt041

so, does INS have our breasts?? and if so, do you feel off balance at all???:confused:

Are you agreeing with the score, or that it's very optimistic???
