Lucky you - welcome and enjpy the forum
Hi
Well I'm fairly new here, and very new to the forum so first things first
I'm a single guy, 40's, living near London. Lots more to know.
Anyway, like many I suppose I had my doubts as to how genuine most people and ads are here, but then........
an e mail arrived, I replied, we phoned, a meet was arranged, fairly locally, and my first experience was........absolutely amazing.
I hope to get to know some more people here.
Lucky you - welcome and enjpy the forum
Your GP surgery should also have a Patients Charter which will include the formal complaints procedure - don't let it go (even if your daughter is well and you are seeing a doctor later).
I find that the GPs themselves are very aware of the "service" aspect to their role generally and that the receptionists, while believing they are helping the doctors, are rubbing people up the wrong way... Just my perception of my GP surgery - not a broadbrush swipe at all GP receptionists...
My GP surgery also has the "call at for an appt that day" but the line is always engaged until atfer by which time the appointments for that day are gone!!!
Makes mental note : Get appt for 10th June as may be ill ...

Tricky, tricky, tricky... On the one hand you do only have one mother - on the other you are an adult and deserved to be treated with respect. I can only echo most of the advice already posted here and add my one liner "When your children are older, how would you want this type of situation handled?" - Always got to try and break the cycle, not let it repeat itself... Not much use I know but good luck xxx
This may seem like a long thread of "goodness knows what" but... as newbies, go with us please.
Background : We (hubby/wife) went to Erotica exhibition last November in London, out of curiousity - totally eye opening and had the most fantstic time. After that, we started to browse SH and follow the threads (some very funny, others deep and touching), which became quite adictive, very quickly. At this stage, we had not registered and watched from the sidelines (so to speak...)
We went to Manchester's Erotica in April this year and this time we went to the Ball afterwards which was great fun. We came to the conclusion thayt as individuals and as a married couple we were really comfortable with ourselves and the different variants of lifestyle that were out there. So after much deep conversation and agreeing our boundaries, we actually registered and joined in with the SH forum.
We didn't post a "hi - we're new" thread as we got caught up in the other posts going on. To be honest - which we always are - we're not looking for the full hard swing, just to explore our sexuality, together, at our own pace, have fun and hopefully make some likeminded friends along the way.
Since we have registered, we have felt like we have a whole new extra world we belong to - pleae don't misunderstand, there are no deep friendships yet and we don't want anyone to think we are "single white female bunny boiler types" but we have found ourselves drawn into other people's lives we don't even know. We find ourselves asking each other while doing the shopping "I wonder how so and so is getting on" based on a thread we had either read or replied to.
Guess we are just a little bit scared (could read excited...) at the overall impact joining the site has had.
Just wondered if any other newbies are experiencing the same stuff or if the more experienced on the site want to share the benefit of their experience and wisdom and tell us that this is all perfectly normal...
Anyway - feel much better that's all off our chest - thanks for reading - by the way : Hi from a newbie couple in deepest Essex chavland xxx

Oh yes.. not only do we live in a Chav Town - we are bordered on all sides by Chav Towns too :
Quote from site " What can I say? The fact that XXXXXXXXX is situated slap bang in the middle of XXX, XXX, XXX and XXX is enough really. It's like a gathering place for all the lowest forms of human beings that exist. The most common type round here is the 15 year old "gangsta" wannabe, decked out in hideous tracksuits, Von Dutch caps and ridiculous jewellery. They are also accompanied by chavvy slapper types...velour tracksuits, the revolting moveable-clown necklaces and the absurd wigga hairstyles are the norm in this dump. XXXXXXXXXXX is an extremely crap place to live. Me and my friends cannot wait until we are old enough to get the hell out of here."
Feel bad now as I quite like living here ...
Can anyone help and tell me what these are : 1) Moveable clown necklaces and 2)Absurd wigga hairstyles???

Well actually i hate having the curtains closed!!! Not closed any curtains since we moved in here, except the bedroom ones and that is just to keep out the daylight!!!
Have to agree - no curtain pulling here either. If you can't use your windows to look out and stare back at the gawpers in the street looking in, you may as well brick up the window altogether...
Top marks to all who try to quit and a huge "I'm not worthy" 
to those that actually manage it... I keep quitting and then starting and then quitting and on and on... Patches were good - no dreams though as took patch off when going to bed - money jar idea was really good 'cos you see that cash build up quickly before your eyes - but alas, the willpower is weak... Anyway, as they say "never give up giving up..."

no apologies necessary - think it's great you're aware of the risks with any dog... As for Jack Russells, Mum's got one - great company for her - a complete lunatic when anyone visits - I swear that little thing has some springbok type gene in him - can clear 6ft straight into the air - mad hatter...
If you truly don't want to risk your relationship, then Calista's advice is spot on:
Can't be easy for either of you - good luck xx
If you are wanting a full sex life then you do need to talk to her, explain your needs and even if it brings tears get her to seek help. A person losing their sex drive needs to be nurtured until it returns.
Can't be easy for either of you - good luck xx
Linda - deep breath in, hold for count of 7 and deep breath out... My son's making his communion in a couple of weeks too. Think I've put more effort into organising this than I did organising my wedding - and as much expense!! Just have the one vodka then make mental note that all will go well and on Sunday you'll look back and think what a fab day it was - Have a lovely time Bev xxx
Bailiffs - give yourself a break. If you've already got one dog and you worried about another one getting on with kids, I'd say you've got enough to deal with already. Not wanting to sound like a bossy, know-it-all (honest ) but no dogs are vicious unless they are untrained and/or absused. I had a rottie (and he was a huge, scary looking animal) for 5 years before having a baby. Was apprenhensive at how the dog would react, bringing a baby into the home but he was fab. Bottom line is that ALL dogs are only as well behaved in direct relation to the time, effort, training and care the owner puts in.

Good luck with it Rainbows - true best mates are hard to come by but once you get them, they are truly the best. My advice (for what it's worth - and you may think it's not worth much) is to try and not be too on the defensive. You have nothing to defend... Ask your best mate to tell you what their true concerns and accept that as a mate this behaviour may be just down to wanting to make sure "you're ok". Don't lose a great friend but don't give up the things you love either... Hope it goes ok xx
goes off in a sulk...
