Abandon Ship!

As I’d expected all along, my Scottish friend has decided that it’s all too far away and bowed out. She’s even found a fella up in Scotland outside of the Match.com circle too. Never the less, and like that famous Murphys drink, I’m not bitter. In fact, I’m very happy for her because she’d like to continue to be friends and stay in touch. I know it’s all a little cliched, but I just hope we do manage to keep in touch.

However, I do have a fellow survivor in the lifeboat with me. I decided to take the fairer sex advice from AlwaysD and Spinsterella (after all, the ladies do know best) and contact the local Miss Shy without the profile picture (yup, It’ll be your fault then!).

We’ve sent a few messages to and fro, she definitely the fun type and she’s finally sent me a picture – thus proving she’s not actually a bloke from Bolton called Herbert. She’s even sent me the occasional text and e-mail during the day. Blimey, that may even mean she’s thinking about me without having to be prompted by a message. Is that land I see ahead...?
