That makes no sense at all.

Even better, the judges refused a claim for legal fees, sending the ambulance chasers back home empty handed.
So does taking them out of circulation actually mean apart from when they're in circulation in spirit, like at elections? Crime has more benefits than honesty, it seems.

Your biographies make for a more exciting read (The Godfather versus Love Story for example).

Good for her .... panic over. .... well THAT panic.

she's off to Bradford to study Psychology... it's not really the psychology that she's excited about - but the going to Bradford! :D

If there was a thread called "today I am sad about..." I'd be writing on there - my little girl is leaving home :cry: on the day she goes i will be a blubbering wreck!

Have you seen Boyhood? The ending might resonate. I think my parents were pretty chuffed to see the back of me!

I've already been through it twice - and each time I dropped my boys off for the first time - MILES away in Middlesbrough and left them all alone - I blubbed my little face off as I drove away! I know I will be the same - very probably worse - with my youngest...

haven't seen Boyhood - might look it up!

we'll still have the eldest at home as he is now working from home - but his plan is very much to move out - and then I'll have an "empty nest" and I am certainly not ready to face that... :(

It must be hard. You go through all the teenage grunting years and then they finally turn into human beings and then bugger off!

I know that feeling, having gone through it twice...

I have some friends who keep hens. As compensation for their feeling bereft on their daughter leaving for Uni in London, they bought four more...

They really did this...

You may have a source of comfort closer to home than you realise...

I'm just a few years ahead of you Bish.

It's a great but sad scenario. What you want is happening but it leaves a game which isn't easily filled
.You do have 3 years of holidays, visits etc. to get used to it before it's a more permanent arrangement.
