RE: Single after 40

What a ridiculous question.

Winners? Losers?

Differing circumstances for each and every one determines whether they are single after 40, determines whether they have children at all. It does not makes them a loser or a winner. Dispense with the labels.

You are very young. You have a lot to learn.

RE: zodiac sign

I don't believe in all that zodiac nonsense.

I'm sorry. I don't judge a person because of his/her star sign. In fact, I take no notice of it at all.

RE: All of you always remain happy.

or was that:

".... what ya on about...."

RE: All of you always remain happy.

Oh, haven't a clue what ya on about it.....

RE: All of you always remain happy.

Those are some happy bananas....

RE: What is your favorite British comedy?

I prefer British Comedy

Fawlty Towers
Mr Bean series
Man About The House
The Vicar of Dibley
The Good Life

I'm sure there are plenty of others but those just off the top of my head.

RE: All of you always remain happy.

Zah....the peaceful gentleman....

Don't give up hope in finding your lady.

I almost did and then found him....just around the corner.

We've enjoyed your company.

Take care....

RE: Profiles

This is my second profile. My first profile I was known as carmengetme....and they did. I stirred up a few when I created a thread and in it I made complaints about the mods. The next time I went to log on, I found I had been locked out.

Was actually quite grateful because the profile name itself seemed to invite trouble.

I think there are a few on here unla with ongoing multiple profiles. Difficult to ascertain their true identity however. Mainly just prankster profiles. I could name a couple, but best not to. I have no proof....just strong intuition.

RE: sun tan in the summer

I hope you and your boy have a terrific 3 weeks in the sun. Just be mindful of putting plenty of sunblock on your son. You skin may be accustomed to the sun, but not his.

Here in NZ....our summer kicks in round end November(ish), sometimes prior and carries through to at least March, February being the hottest.

Have a fun holiday....

RE: sun tan in the summer

I like a little bit of sun and it's good for us.

...but out sunbathing endlessly for hours....no....not now.

If I go to the beach, I'll have a swim, but not too much sun before I need some shade....otherwise I go a bit troppo...



When I was a kid/teenager it was different.

I prefer the in-between seasons now....autumn and spring....neither too hot or too cold.

...besides melanoma is a a very real risk these days.

RE: Would you date a single parent?

Yes, without hesitation.

I like children, regardless of age.

I had my children later in life, so more often than not, I find I am dating men who have grandchildren and have also dated men who have chosen not to have children.

My teenage daughter boards away from home full time, although I see her regularly and my son's care is shared 50/50 between his Dad and myself, so it has never been an issue as far as dating goes.....not that I am aware of, at least.

RE: How many people have you met from CS?

I do! I do heave <<<<<<<(the Aussie twang) FUN.....on the way....

RE: How many people have you met from CS?

Hell No! Visions of horror movie come to mind...

RE: How many people have you met from CS?

That's a relief

RE: How many people have you met from CS?

Just haven't found anyone who curls me toes(I'm talking about real life)

RE: How many people have you met from CS?

Hi Skip

What is the damage down there today? I missed the national news.

RE: illegal legal !!

No, not at all.

That was an isolated case, but just thought it was worth a mention on your thread, as an example of how Government Departments can and do get it wrong sometimes.

We are a small nation....but vocal enough not to allow anything too outrageous to occur, in the form of protesting, media coverage. We can apply pressure to politicians to instigate change......

RE: How many people have you met from CS?

Yes....it was very arty farty creative of you...

It's not about being fussy.

RE: How many people have you met from CS?

Of course not...silly.

You're a lovable character...

It was just that I just saw Skip's post in response to me. I'm a bit slack like that...I don't always go back to follow up on threads I've posted in.

The forums wouldn't be the same without you....

RE: How many people have you met from CS?

That's why I like you....

RE: illegal legal !!

Nothing makes sense in politics these days...

It reminds me of the case in NZ where a jail breaker applied successfully to a Government run ACC(Accident Compensation Corporation designed to aid people with costs who have suffered injury through accident) when he broke his ankle scaling a fence in his attempt for freedom.

There was such outrage and public outcry regarding the case, ACC, had no choice but to revoke its decision.

RE: Are we obliged,to look after,our elderly parents,when incapable looking after themselves??

It's been a tradition in our family over the generations to look after our elders.

That tradition is still ongoing regarding my own mother.

...and that's when I wish for it to stop, when I am no longer able to live independently. I do not wish to be become a burden for my own children. It's a decision I've already made and conveyed to the kids. I've been good to the kids so I hope they pick a good nursing home for me... All, I would ask is to see them occasionally and have regular phone contact just to stay "in touch".
