I guess not. I remember when I was unemployed it got a bit depressing. I guess the worst memory is of me being in bed in the afternoon, eating a microwave curry and listening to The Clash. Actually, that sounds pretty good now...
Quote: Sammy @ October 24 2009, 7:42 PM BSTAw Dolly,
Well, if you ever fancy going for a drink or a bite to eat let me know. We live so close.
Yeah we do, cheers 
. The problem is everyone works during the day and I don't have anything in common with other mums near me.

Are you not, to use an American term, a soccer mom?

Yeah, it's alright once in a while, but to be honest it's generally depressing. No one will give me a job either.

How much of your time is taken up with your MA?

No, I don't think so. My friends have children of a similar age but live miles away.

Ah! Your very funny friends. I'd forgotten about them.

Only a day a week attendance at the moment. And then odd bits of writing when I actually feel like it.
Hello, Tim, you big tit.
EDIT:
Oh, Tim deleted his post...

My beautiful, clever funny friends. They have good careers and more children than me.

You are so shallow.

He does tend to put out then clear it up before anyone notices.

I rather stupidly hang out with people who make me look awful.

I refuse to believe that you hang round with people who defy their age as much as you!

I rather stupidly hang out with people younger than me too.
