@VeeJayBee Gap online appears to have another sale going on. Donāt think itās as good as the last one though.
@HotesTilaire I fear that I am on that Facebook group too. Its so funny. If someone asks why there are fireworks going off on a random Wednesday night they get really funny replies about it being for the reopening of Chris's Chippy. Someone posted that they seen a food delivery truck outside and people were driving past to see if it was true. 
I have just driven past and its closed so we went to Steves.
I have just driven past and its closed so we went to Steves.The man I am seeing is working in America and was due to fly back on Monday to work in their Manchester office before he went home for Christmas. Now that everyone is home working again he is flying back to London instead. We had plans for me to collect him from the airport and for him to stay with me for a night and then I was going to stay with him in his hotel in Manchester and go to a FANCY restaurant., I don't know when I am going to see him again and its starting to feel pointless. I am torn as I really like him and while he has been away we have been on different time zones but still texted a lot and talked. He is lovely - what should I do? Can someone please insert the 'who bleeping knows' thingie here for me?
I donāt know what you should do. I am so sorry Covid etc is still getting in the way of life.@HotesTilaire I fear that I am on that Facebook group too. Its so funny.

Have you had any conversations about what both of you want? Would it be something youād feel comfortable bringing up or not?@HotesTilaire I fear that I am on that Facebook group too. Its so funny.

I mean going to Steveās answers both questions as far as I can see. Steveās does scollops, and tahini I think.@HotesTilaire I fear that I am on that Facebook group too. Its so funny.

The latest scandal I heard of was an elf who didnāt have a DBS? Although who knows, there seems to be a clear divide between people (possibly not local in some cases) taking things literally and massive wind up merchants (local for sure) in that group.
I think this end of the year is tough, you were going to have a ātreatā before the Xmas break, now itās all break and no focal point for a meet up.
@Into_the_tunnel your footwear made me smile, thank (space) you.
@HotesTilaire and @heretoreaditall2019 we have not talked about anything in the future. Meeting him has been so unexpected but also so uncomplicated. We have until now just made it work as we are both busy but also made time for one another. I think I will accept we cant see one another until January. Sorry for the me-rail.

Would that make it less stressful if you just knew it wouldnāt be until then- if the uncertainty was taken away? Or has there always been a slight element of uncertainty built in?
Sorry if this the wrong thing to say. It must be so hard navigating distance, covid regs, jobs, travel etc and now your separate Christmas arrangements.
Having a chat seems like the best thing so come January you both feel the same.
(This feels fraudulent giving out relationship advice- I have none. I would just hand over Tunnel dog and let her make you feel smushy for a bit)
Not fraudulent at all, nodded along to it all you said it perfectly!Would that make it less stressful if you just knew it wouldnāt be until then- if the uncertainty was taken away? Or has there always been a slight element of uncertainty built in?

Agree uncertainty never feels nice, definitely worth a chat to see what you both think about everything so you at least know where you stand / what your options are?
Youāre not me-railing, itās something thatās so necessary to think through. I donāt have any advice but I really feel for you, especially since it sounds like you really, really like him, in a way that must make it all harder.
Sorry to interject (please talk over me) but @heretoreaditall2019 mentioned on the MT that the insert link button has disappeared. You can still use the BBCode to make tidy links. I made the link below by typing this:
don't visit this website I didn't check whether it was real

Thank you so much TS!!! Iād only just figured out how to add links like that so Iād been missing that button!
Testing it out with a link to slopbot

Thanks all. I have woken up in a better head space today. The thing is there has never been a need to talk about things as he always had something in diary with me, is attentive and generous and so it felt right without having to say that it did. We just got on with having a good time. I will concentrate on having a great Christmas with my little family and see what January brings. In truth I want a relationship and I cant see this working long term or without heartache as he lives so far away.
I do appreciate all of your replies. You don't have to be a relationship guru to give advice on the subject, everyone here is so nice and level headed that its great for me to have all of your perspectives to challenge what's really going on in my head. I was married for such a long time and never really dated much beforehand so I am like a middle aged teenager when it comes to men.
Have a good Sunday all. I am cooking a roast dinner then heading out to a National Trust place for a walk, no doubt with two moaning kids!

I am making this soup right now. Itās from the Food.com site. Potato, carrot, onion and I added celery. Itās called Potato and Carrot Soup.

I'm currently at work but finish early enough to do something with chicken. Not sure yet, I don't fancy roast dinner , still no taste cos of Covid . I might see what culinary delights jump out at me in sainsbury's. I might get a cook in bag sauce thing
Great idea! Yes, it was! Carrot, onion and celery is a triumvirate of soup ingredients.
Sounds perfect to me, exactly what is needed on a pretty miserable winterās day (well, it certainly is here at least!). Hopefully Mx Dr Dr Monroe will take a leaf from your book and realise that sometimes, the fewer ingredients the better. Particularly if fish is not involved!Great idea! Yes, it was!
