Sometimes, life potters along merrily. Nothing much really happens and weeks go by, weekends providing a welcome break from the usual routine of work life and the weekly committments of having two teenagers with busy social lives who need taxiing from A to B and back again!
Sometimes, something may happen and a small pebble […]

Today has been Mother’s Day in the UK.
First thing this morning Daughter, Son and I troop into our bedroom to take Sue breakfast in bed and to give her cards and flowers. She had to hastily don a night shirt. We always sleep naked in bed. Oops, I should have warned her in advance of […]

I am just going to throw my two pennies worth in here..
As Ed and I do not share my Christian beliefs, I have had to do a lot of soul searching on this subject.
Whilst, in an ideal world, I would much rather our children wait until they are married before they have sex, I am […]

Yes, she’s leaving.
She’s packing her bags and she’ll be gone on Saturday.
And she’s taking the children with her.
My fingers tremble at the thought.
What am I going to do?

It could only happen in Britain!
I was talking on the phone with my father’s doctor this morning. We were discussing his various health issues, the strokes he’s had this year, the diabetes problems, the MRSA bug that he picked up in hospital and probably still has, and various other things.
And then the conversation went something […]

How to give your husband a very happy Father’s Day:

Let him sleep late
Bring him breakfast in bed
Take him out for a delicious meal
Give him fantastic sex

Yes, I had a very happy Father’s Day, thank you.
The children brought be breakfast in bed this morning, just before Sue and the children went to church. Then I discovered […]

Well, today I got to swing with another woman.
While Sue watched.
But it might not be quite what you think.
My father was admitted to hospital 6 weeks ago and finally came home today. He’s not able to walk or even stand up on his own and we’ve been provided with a hoist to lift him […]

We’re nearly there in getting my father out of hospital. Honestly, it’s like trying to break him out of prison!
I suppose it’s reasonable that they want to make sure that he is going to be OK at home before they discharge him, but it’s hard work at the moment. Yesterday morning I spent 2 hours […]

I’ve been into the hospital twice today, and Dad is a lot better today. Still a bit confused and disorientated, but a lot more coherent than he was yesterday.
I’m hoping that it won’t be long before he is allowed home but we’ll just have to see how it goes. He will be seen by a […]

I went to visit Dad in hospital this afternoon and…well…at the moment he doesn’t look too good. I don’t think he’s in any danger or anything, but he just doesn’t look himself at all and he is very confused and disorientated.
I’ll be going in again this evening.
Once again, many thanks to all of you who […]

Just a quick note to say that my father had another suspected stroke this morning and has been taken into hospital. Just about to go to the hospital myself to see what the situation is…
Update 10.00 pm
Dad has been admitted to hospital. It’s too early to say whether he had another stroke, although early indications […]

I had one of those moral dilemmas beloved of all parents this evening!
Son had gone to a party this evening, similar to the one he went to last time.
The arrangement was that he would be back at about 11.00pm and he would then go on to stay at a friend’s house for the night. The […]

OK, this is seriously weird.
Now as regular readers will know, there isn’t much kink on this site.
Not any more. Seriously kinky stuff coming up, folks.
Tomorrow is Comic Relief Day in the UK and the children’s school is having a non-uniform day. So the kids can pay a small amount to the charity and wear […]

Sunday is Mother’s Day here in the UK.
I talk a lot about Sue as a lover and sex goddess but I don’t talk about her much as a mother. That’s mainly because this blog is mostly about our marriage, and yes, OK, I have a fixation with sex. But that’s only because our sex […]

My cousin said something to me the other day that got me thinking.
“No-one has ever got divorced in our family.”
Now, it has to be said that our family is pretty small. The couples in my immediate family would be:
Mum and Dad - married 55 years.
My sister and husband - married about 32 years
My cousin and […]
