I just emailed H with a suggestion that we come up by bus, although it only drops us off about three miles from his house. If it is a dry day, walking it is not a problem.
I also talked a little about something we started to debate over lunch. Some friendly, I hope, chat.
Will keep you posted on his reply.
Another thing. I spoke to a friend today and I asked about another friend. Friend 2 I like a lot, but we don't meet up that much, although when we do meet we have a good time. She is single, was seeing this guy (whom I have never met) and who I understood was divorced with a kid. Friend 2 falls pregnant, it seems the guy is not so thrilled. Found out today that Friend 2 has had her baby, guy was present, has visitied baby once since then. He lives a few cities away. Turns out he was only separated, was 'in the process of separating', but now is still living with his wife! Seems he is not keen to leave his wife! Ha!
I believe that Friend 2 started seeing this guy on the basis that he was separated, not that he was married. In this country, you have to be separated for three years before you can get divorced. I think that may be a good thing, as it allows some time for the dust to settle to see whether the marriage is REALLY irretrievable. But things can sure get messy if one or other partner gets involved with third parties prematurely. I am sorry for Friend 2, she's a nice person.
