Ahhhh Serenity,

Thanks for your post. I needed that!

Had a great night watching the Boks beat the cr@p out of Australia at rugby. smile

And true to form (I'm doing nothing about the sitch) I met a mate going into the Barrel (pub). Who said - rumor is the W is working at the X Inn (round the corner).

Initial reaction - good. Next reaction - as a barmaid. Third reaction - good. Forth reaction - so does "OW" now get a discount?

Serenity - the first I heard of this so many things went through my head. First one was Thank God. W really needs some confidence back in her life. And that she now has.

Second thought (bad thing thoughts!) - so now the W is living with "OW" paying her to stay there and is now waiting on her hand and foot - W bring me booze. That sort of thing. This HAS to be unsustainable.

I did a bad thing which I promised myself I wouldn't do. Left the Barrel, rode round to the X Inn and looked in. No OW car. I _think_ I saw W working her a$$ off behind the bar. Feelings? Not sure. Confused. I'll get confirmation for what it's worth soon.

Mainstay - very good friend. We had a long chat after the rugby. He's convinced that I should just wait and see. Thats another who said exactly the same thing in the past couple of days.

Gotta run - Ian from the UK is Skyping me.

Will try to type later.
