good excuse to go to Tokyo though. You sure have done your sums.

thank you everyone for your thoughts, lots of great advice here and some amazing stories and experiences (esp GSJ57 -wow, what a wonderful story)! for me its kinda like...met someone at an expat event 6 wks before I was due to leave the country so never really got to know each other. But had this feeling that I never wanted to lose touch so its been phone calls/text/emails. Difficult to get to know someone via email though! He is now back in Europe but sadly as he is not from the UK is still based in a different country!! Just wanted to hear experiences and views of others xxxxx


btw sorry if my username is misleading (my d.o.b. is most definitely not 1997!!! I am much much much older than that!):)

p.s. woof your post was v.funny, hope you are wrong though...

Absolutely.


I met my wife, who is Canadian in the line up for a Springsteen show in London about 4 years ago.


We clicked almost instantly....


We started of e-mailing and then spent hours on the phone each day....


I took three months off and went to live over with her....just to see if we could stand each other on an everyday basis!


Luckily, it did not put her off me.


We married about a year after we met!


Because of work commitments, financial considerations and her daughter's schooling we have spent three years of our married life meeting in all kinds of wonderful places...


Florida next for Spring break!


Then they move here permanently this summer...


I run my own business and she is a lawyer, so we are lucky we can make all the time we need to see each other....we were able to be together four months of each year at least!


I can imagine it would be more difficult if the relationship was based on just calls and e-mails for much of the year.

Good luck katie - have high hopes for you.


And KidKruger, yes, my post didn't set out to shock. Sex is of course important, but my romantic soul would rather employ a little imagination to be with (however remotely) the person I care about than go out to seek gratification elsewhere.

    • Leaving the country having been made somewhat more difficult than it used to be.  Can't quite put my finger on why.

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
