A big day...

Longtime readers and archive browsers may remember that my folks split up recently. They kind of told me and the missus that they were on the outs just under two years ago. He'd been seeing someone else blah blah blah.

Well, today, after all this time, Wife and I are finally meeting "the other woman". They're visiting for the weekend. We are the only two in the family who have never met her. We have never even seen a picture of her. I've only spoken to her on the phone. Must say, I'm feeling a bit ... uneasy? scared?

They're not staying at our place; they're staying at a B&B. First time meeting her and all, it would have seemed a bit odd. Last time my dad visited he was with my mum. So...

Probably won't post again today: tidying up to do, y'know. Hide the porn, dust the skirting boards, wash the cat's bowls...

Wish me luck.

Certainly do wish you the best. Captain Nice says he hopes all will go well and without undue "wancour".

you don't need luck, only patience. if it can happen to anyone, why not our parents?
vics dad died 10 years ago now, and her mum has been living with someone for 2 years. still feels odd and she aint my mum!
as long as they are healthy and happy.
you'll be ok.
