This weekend I could have been
a - in Amsterdam at a bloggy meet up seeing The Bitch who is Dutch and Penelope.
b - In Cambridge with an ex who is being very flirty.
c - Visiting another friend who lives far ish away for a weekend of gossip, giggling and wine.
This weekend I will be
a - having a 2 for 1 pub meal with my friend Eileen tonight, still nice but not quite Amsterdam.
b - unable to visit anyone unless they live within walking distance or on bus or train routes.
c - completely on my own. This never ever happens.
This is beacause
a - I am getting divorced and the ex mrauntiegwen is becoming mightily sniffy about my "extravagant lifestyle" yep, he actually did say that. Best not to pop off to Amsterdam this weekend then.
b - due to my own goldfish memory and the fact I am stupidly busy at work, I remembered on the 1st of October that my road tax runs out on the 30th September. So instead of walking to the post office and buying a disc, I thought "oh before I forget, I'll do it online, it'll be quicker"
DOH
completely forgetting it would have to be posted to me and now I can't feckin drive till it arrives.
c - and I am as cross as a bag of cats because this is the first time on 2 months on a Saturday night I will have no children and could get up to mischief.
oh yes it's a glum auntiegwen this weekend.

Damn, damn, damn.
So it's a party round at Auntie Gwens. Bring your own booze and snacks.
NB - thanks for that I'm surprised you stopped from posting my address !!!!
Nota Bene - exactly what I was thinking!
Auntie Gwen - no consolation I know, but you've just reminded me that I need to book my car's MOT. Sorry. Open a bottle and have a drink at home enjoying the fact you don't have to be designated driver or pay for a taxi.
I have an inkling you'll be blogging!
WM - you're more than welcome and I'm glad I'm useful for something
Expat Mum- yep, I'm sure I owe MMM a post
I get to have a whole week of days like your weekend. My girls are going on a Mexican cruise with their dad, and I won't have the money to go anywhere myself (partly because I just impulsively spent $200 on decorations for our pad). So if you come up with any great ideas of something to do that doesn't involve a cleaning rag or a scrub brush, let me know. Cheers!!
I know the feeling! Adrian has resigned himself to staying indoors all weekend to work on his PhD so we can't get up to anything fun - plus it's really fecking windy in Glasgow.
Good luck, Gwennie - Give him Hell, oh, and Amsterdam! xox
Be thankful we don't have your address or we would have been round to do a bit of moshing after a few bottles on Lanliq!
Be naughty and get ratassed!
Shirley - decorations, cleaning, me no know these terms ??? cue puzzled face from auntie x
Katie - you know I'm a teacher at heart, I applaud the dedication, when it's over you can go back to adventuring :)
Fhina - I'll be at the next bloggy meet up I'm invited to, come hell or high water x are the MMM lot going to have one ?
Mobs - you are welcome anytime xx and I got quietly mellow and flirty, I'm a 2 glass gal :)
You're living girl - you're living! I just wish divorces were as easy as they are facebook!!lol
