Wonka, would love to dust off the tuxedo and twirl around the floor with you :-) I did speak to the son and DIL, when they were here for the bbq. Simply stated that I would love to attend and that I would not say or do anything that would make them embarrassed or ashamed. I said that I am attending for them to celebrate DIL 21st and it didn't matter if their mum attended or not, it would not make any difference to me or how I acted. I am feeling quite comfortable about the party and I know that it won't be an emotional worry that I thought might have occurred a few weeks ago.
So I know now, to as you said, STFU about anything to do with the W while talking to the boys.
Onto my second date this Friday night now :-) with the same lovely lady. DB has certainly helped me there.
