Thanks for posting. It always cheers me to come to the boards and see posts on my thread
I've had a lovely weekend. Friday night I treated myself to a new pair of shoes (my first love ), a walk in back rub which did wonders for my back, and then a gentle swim. It was lovely. Then on Saturday it was my first walk with the new group. It was so much fun, I *really* enjoyed it. We walked 9 miles in total with a pub lunch stop in the middle. It was great to chat to new people and find out about them and I slotted right in. I can't wait to do more. I am doing another one tomorrow night. It is so great that it is free! They also do social things in the evenings like go to the Proms and also have weekends away really regularly.
On Sunday my friend came over and we lazed about in the park all afternoon. We were laughing all afternoon, mainly because my back had gone really stiff and I was walking in a very comical way. I don't know why I am so stubborn, I should really have rested but I didn't want to miss out as I had planned to go on Saturday
I have found a local dance studio near my house where you can do drop in sessions. I am going to start trying all different dances and see if there is one I like. It is very cheap, the prices range from £2 - £11.00. I'm going to go to Burlesque on Thursday - apparently I will walk away a more sexy and confident woman I'm also going to try Tap and Samba.
GAG you are right that London is the perfect backdrop for my GAL. Please do not worry about hijacking, there is not much going on in the world of h. Hijack away, or if you want, I can set you up a thread. Choose a forum and I'm happy to set it up for you.
Kara, thank you for posting. It is lovely to see you here. I'll take a look at your story.

Your words rang so true when I read them. It is exactly what I was doing and was not good for the PMA, plus I was getting rejected and fobbed off which wasn't 'working'. I would say I am waiting and seeing but I guess that isn't strictly true as I am GALing and having fun.
Lisa - Vintage clothes, heaven! Make sure you tell me all about it!
H news - 0. It has been a week since he last contacted me. I guess one potential thing is that one of his friends has been in contact over FB. He is the only one I have really stayed in contact with, although I never ask about H as it is not fair on him. He has asked me to go and visit him for a weekend in November. I think I'll go, it'll be fun. Although I will set a no h discussion boundary.
