Ride It Like You Stole It!

Happily married for 17 years with an 'almost 12' year old boy and a lass of 9 and a quarter (the quarters are important).

Must love her as had the snip last week, and haven't known pain like it(botched hatchet job). She did cart me off to A&E at 9pm this evening with the pain. Was knocked out with 60 mg of codeine, now all to wide awake at flipping 3am and sat on a bag of peas as I've used my drug quota up for today. I must love her, as I will be off the bike till November...no cycling said the doc tonight.

Just had our 3rd anniversary, got a boy who's nearly 2 and another on the way (due days before little ones birthday)

She must be some sort of Saint lol to put up with me.
Im the luckiest man in the world, she's stayed with me and supported me when most would probably run a mile

:biggrin:

Been with my partner for around 15 years, we're not married and have a 12 year old Son and a big dog. I am very lucky, she lets me spend more than I should on bikes and bike bits and bottles of whisky. She is my rock, a fantastic mum, puts up with my bad moods and is beautiful. She cooks a mean roast dinner, probably the best roast dinner in the world and always makes me a cuppa when I get back off a bike ride.
She has a stressful job (I don't), so I make things easier for her at home during the week by doing the housework, ironing, making the packed lunches for the next day and getting dinner ready, so she has nothing to do when she gets home except eat and put her feet up. Then at the weekend she does the housework properly, doing the bits I've missed!

I met mrs sheep about 2 months after giving up on dating thinking it best to concentrate on uni work, we married 2 years and 6 months later.

Things are great except the slight stress of me being out of work and the fact that she certainly feels ready to be a mum. I want to wait a bit until we've got the house a bit more sorted and I've got a job.

It be reet.

I was married once. Unfortunately she felt the marriage vows only applied to my side of the commitment so we eventually parted company.

I am now with Arch. Nearly 2 years together, formally, but know each other for longer. Met on a cycling forum :thumbsup: due to a mutual interest in steam engines :scratch: and other mechanical stuff.
We have plans for a wedding. Having done it before I am not overly bothered about wedding stuff but I do still feel that marriage (in some form, not necessarily legal or religious) is an important thing for me as a confirmation of our commitment to each other.

Arch enjoys the same sorts of madcap stuff that I do, we both enjoy cycling but don't see it as a religion. We have similar views to spending and earning, holidays, lifestyles, fashions, luxuries, food, family, etc. I think we 'fall out' on dogs, Arch likes something smaller with a rough coat, I prefer larger dogs with a smooth coat.
Overall we compliment each other.:wub:

I only ever intended to be married once (more). ;)

We were talking about that....

No date as yet, dependent on job changes and house renovations, but aiming at a very small wedding ceremony in the morning, followed by a guerrilla raid for tea and cake at the National Railway Museum* for anyone else (forum people?) who wants to meet up to join us there. There will then be a break for lunch and stuff and then we join the invited guests for the reception buffet and party at St Nicholas Fields environment centre.
All that is subject to change as we think of other ways to reduce costs down to a pittance.^_^

*We dated at the NRM so it is a special place for us. We will be wondering about there on the day hopefully meeting and drinking tea with people we wouldn't otherwise get to meet on the day. Obviously we couldn't invite the whole forum to the reception so this seemed like a good compromise.;)

Make the most oif it while it lasts. I know plenty of people who were in a semmingly blissful contented relationships even after 20 or 30 years only for their partners to walk off without explanation leaving the other broken hearted and having to pick up the pieces.

I was going to suggest a tractor or traction engine be used as wedding vehicle, but you seem to have things sorted

perhaps a tandem to leave the reception on?
