Great post pal,
The smile on your face shines through when you talk about the kids.
They have had a lucky break being able to share the last few months with you and your partner and sounds like you have both got a much out of it as they most definitely have. You know I'm not one for using the hope word but I'll make an exception and hope their luck continues and they get to spend Christmas with you.
As for the dog and fireworks google mutt m***s. They might even be on sale now bonfire night has gone they might make a great Christmas gift just in time for the new year fireworks.

Hi Alan,
Truly lovely post and the kids sounds like lil angels running around and shining the light!
It's amazing to see what recovery offers, why to give it up?
Keep on keeping on, the rewards doesn't stop here вє

Thankyou for responding on my diary, you have a great way with words!! I was catching leaves with you too for a moment there 🙂
Hi just read your latest post on your diary, sounds like you had a brill week end and it's such a good thing you do fostering. I bet the kids love you. You should not drink at all with that medication so class yourself as told off lol. You never heard of orange chips, don't knock them till you have tried them they are very nice but very high in calories. With regards to the tights, don't think I will wear them for that length of time again, struggled in a meeting this afternoon, could not speak as I was trying to concentrate on breathing and staying alive! I smile every day, laugh every day, sing and dance every day because I'm gf. Best wishes and keep posting on here Alan to all the members like you do, you and others on here keep me going x x
Ah thanks Alan. Always got my big girl pants on (poor bloomin' things!) Those little foster squiddlies of yours seem to bring you much joy and are keeping you on your toes, you make sure your poor old creaking hips aren't put under too much strain 🙂 Do you have a date for the op yet?
btw, there defo seems to be a north-south divide on the orange chip thing. They sound disgusting to me, and I'd imagine a few portions of those and my big girl pants would have to be traded in for a very big girl girdle.

Hi twink's hope your feeling a little happier today ? .
Yep loving having those kids around alright , bit of a second chance to play dad and the real sweetner is that because I work most nights , I get the fun weekend stuff to do :))
Haven't got a date for the Hip -Hop as I like to call it but have an appointment to see my surgeon next week , so I'll know more then hopefully :)) .
You know I'm still none the wiser what these Orange chips are ? , are they cholcolate chips flavoured orange ? or just nbormal chips with lots of Orange food colouring ? Please someone tell me what they are it's driving me crazy :((

There battered chip's. Sort of like southern fried coating x
I can confirm I have never seen an orange chip and i live in t'north. I have seen salt and pepper chips and they are absolutely delicious a bit like salt and pepper chicken but with potato.

hi alan you well today?
I wouldn't say they were spicy it just adds a crunch I guess
If your ever up this end try them
They're a game changer lol
I visited a new posh chippy near me last week. 5 different types of curry sauce? Hand picked mushroom pies? Me I'll have a battered sausage lol

I also said they were battered chip's on your wall about 2 days ago lol Alan the place is like argos order what you want then wait 20 minutes for your number to be called out. There's no paper all fancy boxes. Tbh it's very successful. I guess it's an upmarket chippy? The guy spent a million adding all high tech gadgets and fire pits. They also do vegetarian fish and chips? Which if I'm honest is pretty dam good
Hi Alan thanks for bday wishes! Even though got woman flu been soldiering on! Lol had really strong urges today but stayed gf! Best wishes Alan Lu x
Steer clear of the battered chips Harold they won't sell well, we soft southerners like to be health conscious whilst wolfing down our chip butties 🙂 Hope you're having a lovely day Sir'Alan. Are you on TV tonight? What a shower of a bunch you've got this year.
xx
Arghhh you big softy. ..fanks for the lovely words you left. ..
I had great teachers in fighting my addiction : )
One's who went out there way to support and guide me on my journey....I know my recovery is down to me....but if you guys and girls hadn't picked me up when I landed here .....things could have been so different....
The laughs along the way are a bonus....am I going to crack a bottle open tonight ?
Am I f**k !
I'm to bloody knackered ....
And I don't waste my profits anymore....in anyway...x
Morning Diary ,
Well It certainly is a New Dawn and A New Day but not sure I feel so good !! :(( .
Still I have to look on the bright side of things as alway's as its not all doom and gloom from accross the pond as everbody loves a good ole American " Assassination " Ooop's Sorry I meant " Inauguration " the only downside I can see is that my good buddy Deanoo won't be around as much on the site as he's already booked his flight for a big bricklaying job coming up on the Mexican border ?
Adios Amigo :((
