I passed my driving test a year ago tomorrow....3 minors! 2 for hesitation and 1 for positioning on the road!
I have a freaky ability to guess random things. I guessed that we were going to be an auntie and uncle long before we were told.
We had a friend over once that said he was going to Paris and that he wanted to talk to us about it. I looked at him and said 'you've been signed over there' and his jaw dropped. there was no way i could have known that.
Panjita, I never say love you to my parents either, but H say's it all the time to his mum. He mentioned it to me once, and i said we don't see the point in stating the obvious every time we see each other! I'm probably a bad wife, but i hardly ever say love you to him either, but he say's it all the time to me.
My MIL says she loves me sometimes when I'm finishing a phonecall with her. I sometimes manage to squeeze out a really comfortable 'er, yeah, luff you too' but it just feels so wrong saying it to someone other than H.
It's quite sad really and I would be totally different to my own kids.
YES!!!! I am the same. It makes me feel damn awkward when MIL says "love you". I just can't bring myself to say it back. I've never once said it to the step kids either, although they never say it to me either. I can only say it to H. I'm sure I will say it every other sentence to my own kids.

From the age of 5 until 16 I played football for my school and a local team. Football is in my genes.
I represented my school at area sports; marathon, 100 metres, 200 metres and 400 metres.
If you knew what I looked like now you would indeed find these shocking.
I'm the same as you Panj and HT, I don't say love you to anyone else other than OH but I tell him numerous times a day. Although, my best friend and I write love you occasionally at the end of messages. I know I will say it all the time to my children!
Not sure it's really interesting but I was born in Cyprus and lived there until I was 3! I had a mop of ginger hair that the Cyproits had never seen before so when mum would be out walking me randoms would gather round the pram and try to pull me out and touch my hair - how weird, poor mum was scared sh1tless.
Oh and whilst on the subject of I love you's I say it to everyone! I speak to my sister about 6 times a day and we have never ended the call without one of us saying love you - sad I know. It's more habit than anything.
I am very interested in this knees. If you wouldn't mind, tell more. Did you have to walk through tunnels? Did you know it was a bomb? Can't comprehend how scary this must be.
Not at all. We didn't know it was a bomb at the time. We'd just left Kings Cross and there was a massive bang and the lights went out. The emergency lights came on quite quickly, but the carriages were filled with dust/smoke. We thought that we'd crashed into something and my first fear was either that something would come along behind us and shunt us, or that there'd be a fire. Nobody was physically hurt in my carriage (the 2nd carriage - the bomber was in the first), but we could hear people screaming from the first carriage, although we couldn't see what had happened because of all the black dust. Once I realised that there wasn't a fire or anything, I knew that someone on the ground would know that we were stuck and would send someone soon. It was probably about 20 minutes until the driver came on the intercom and said that someone was on their way down. It was probably another 10-15 minutes before we got out. We walked back down the track to Kings Cross. Some of the walking wounded from the first carriage came behind us, so that was quite unpleasant as lots had blood all over them. The worst injured were taken the other way to Russell Square, so thankfully I didn't see anything really horrific.
Nah! I just wrote letters to the show!! ? One was about pandas facing extinction, one about animals in rescue shelters and I can't remember the third, other than it wasn't animal related!
