Where did v1.1 go?
Was only available on floppy...Sorry!
t he's been climbing and rivers of poo he's been swimming against of late.I remember back in my twenties, splitting up with this girl who was just great when it came to rumpy pumpy. Every time I tried to have a serious discussion on how things weren't really working (she was a bit clingy to put it lightly) it always ended up with her blowing my trumpet on the sofa and us giving it one more try 
She was pure dirt

How are things going ABD?
Thanks for asking. Things are progressing, we have told our families (not the children, and we won't until just before we move) and we are starting to discuss custody/finances in more detail. It's still very amicable at this stage. I think deep down we are both a bit relieved, although still very sad.There's a lot to do and we're getting on with it. The house goes on the market on Monday and we will see how things go for a short while before making any decisions about who moves where.
The last few posts did make me smile - thank you all.

One thought that leaps out - how are you going to cover with the kids the house being on the market, with strangers coming round and an impending move with "where are we all moving to" and "will I get a bigger room"?
Surely better to give them as much time as possible to adjust to the future and give them some input?

Glad to hear you're both doing ok. I guess the relief outweighs any other negative emotions you may have. Fingers crossed that you can both keep this up. The last few posts did make me smile - thank you all.
And smilings good

Seriously though, glad its staying friendly, hope it stays that way.
It can be amicable - we were as we realised any other course of action would just result in huge bills. We sorted all the finances between us, had a separation agreement drawn up by a solicitor(from PH) to make it legal and just got on with it.
It might be different with kids involved.
Best wishes ABD

Hello,
Sorry for the delay, I only check in every now and then.
Things are progressing. We have an agreement regarding custody and finances in place and X will be moving out as soon as she can find another place. She is looking for a job. I will be staying in the existing house long enough to sell/rent it and then I will be moving on too. We will live fairly close to each other as that is good for the kids, although where that will be isn't clear yet. Broadly, X has been reasonable so far and I have more or less got the things I wanted (not that I wanted any of this) so I have been reasonable too.
The children will spend half of the week with each of us and all our holidays will be during school holidays (plus a bit of support from Grandparents).
There have been times when I have found things difficult but I can now see the end in sight. We're still living in the same house at the moment but we have arrangements that mean our time with each other (when we are not discussing our plans) is minimised. Luckily we have enough space to be able to keep our distance.
I've been eating better and doing a lot of exercise, and I'm feeling much better overall. The children are benefitting from both of us spending quality time with them.
I will check in every now and again and post updates. I'd like to thank everyone again for the good wishes and support.
Cheers,
AB(less)D
