Wow! It can work ;)


Hiya all! If any of you out there are considering Internet dating, having read some of my encounters, I wish you all the best and good luck in finding that special someone for you.

However.......a word of warning........be strong and err on the side of caution...I have been fairly lucky and none of the men I met for coffee were what you might call predatory or only looking for you know what ;).....but then again I was fairly sure of this before I even continued a conversation on-line!! ;)

I started at the beginning of October 2012 and in the past 7 months have met a total of 7 men (I'm fussy........it could have been more!!!)

A lot of the men on-line were just out of the question for one reason or another, and why so many men over 65 pushing 70 wanted to meet me I'll never really know!!! ROFLIA...
...I always wanted to meet someone much nearer my own age.

Oddly, I find myself in the reverse situation......as my SB is 7 years younger!
Yikes! It turns out I'm a Cougar!!!! ROFL

(SB? That stands for special boyfriend amongst other things btw...I'll let your minds drift on what else it might stand for.....as I know you lot probably will ROFLIA)

But when those pheromones work...they just work! ;)

In my heart, I truly never really thought Internet dating would work but have had to eat my words. I have found the right person for me and wonderfully I am the right person for him :)
Thanks E Harmony :) :) :)

There is lots to discover about each other yet but the nice thing is we are both looking forward to doing so :)

Yep.....I am definitely all loved up!!! :) :) :)

Eurovision Baptism of Fire!!

Mmmm I had already had a Eurovision party planned for friends way before I even knew SB even existed on the planet!!

So when he asked last week if he could see me again on Saturday I had to explain that I'd love it and I'd love him to come but would understand if he felt a bit overwhelmed with meeting my friends all at once!!! :)
Bless him.....he said he would love to come and love to meet my friends because they are important to me :) I could melt sometimes....he is a darling :)
Any ways my friends were dying to meet him ;)

We ate drank and were merry as we watched Eurovision.....we had fun.....I made up a Eurovision quiz for fun too!
But what pray happened to the lack of votes for Ireland....last place with 2 points?!
Surely not!!!
I think perhaps I've lost my touch....but then again I have my mind on other things HOL ;)


And what do you know? A good man has at last turned up on my patio for breakfast! ;)

My Dancer Stamps on offer!

Hey! What do you know?
My Dancer stamps are the special offer of the week over at The Artistic Stamper.
As Jennie quoted.......


"You've gotta' dance like there's nobody watching, Love like you'll never be hurt, Sing like there's nobody listening, And live like it's heaven on earth. (And speak from the heart to be heard.)” -William W. Purkey

So love that quote.....it has always spoken volumes to me ;)

They are half price up until next Wednesday at The Stamp of the Week so if you have been dithering over purchasing these, now is the best time to treat yourself.
Go on you know you want to!!!! ROFL


I never will get over the thrill of having my design made into rubber ;)
Thanks for your support Jennie.

In Remembrance

Today marks the 3rd anniversary of Pip's passing.

I'm convinced he is behind all that has happened recently...I have come to understand who I really am and what and who I am looking for in the rest of my life ;)

I truly believe everything happens for a reason....even though sometimes that reason seems difficult to comprehend.

To Pip..."Who was a bloody good laugh" as the quote said on his order of service...




Petula was his favourite so please enjoy...he would want us to ;)

You just never know when a good man will turn up!

Just when I was beginning to think this on-line dating thing was not going to work...
...lo and behold I get knocked for six and have to eat my words ;)

Yikes! I met a genuine, good man on Saturday for the first time.
We met up in Dartmouth...I caught the bus and the passenger ferry across the river...it was a glorious afternoon and I'll admit it felt quite romantic doing this and seeing him waiting at the other side...........heaven help the hopeless romantic in me.

But perhaps he is a hopeless romantic too as one of my all time favourite movies is The African Queen (he confesses it's one of his too, along with Casablanca, which I also love ;))

We have so many similar things in common it's like looking in a mirror....as he put it.

This was such a lovely meeting....we walked to one of my favourite places to have coffee in Dartmouth, Bayards Cove...sat and chatted for ages....then we realised they were waiting to close so we thought we had better go....had a short walk around town as all the shops had closed and headed for The Royal Castle for one last drink...well I imagined that it would be the last drink, but we were getting on so well we decided to share a meal together...
...mmmm I can't begin to tell you how nice that simple pleasure was ;)


"It's the little things that make life big!" :)


He is tall....grey and handsome ;) With a sweet smile....oh dear....I think I might be getting all mushy here ;)

We waved goodbye as I caught the ferry back....it could almost have been a black and white movie! LOL

Perhaps the real journey has only just started.........we have a date for Friday. :) :)
It seems we like each other in equal measure ;)
