    Work on - through the wind,
    Work on through Agents and IR35
    Though your dreams be tossed by clients and blown.
    Work on, work on with hope in your heart,
    And you'll ne-ver work aga-ain


    You'll Never - Work Ag-ain ...

      **** me, thats depressing

      Don't worry, with your looks you could always revert to gold-digger mode and find a wealthy chap to live off whilst you have the kids.

      I know quite a few guys who have been whammied in this way. Meet a nice intelligent career woman. Settle down and have a kid. She then decides she quite likes staying at home as a house wife (nothing to do with the sleep deprivation I'm sure), while he has the pressure of making sure he can earn enough and keep his job to support the family.

      I suppose it helps that women like all the tripe on daytime tv, hence why it's rare it's the woman that goes back to work while the guy stays at home. The absolutely extortionate cost of child care is probably also a factor.

            Depends. Some are for visiting in the cemetery if you put off having kids till you're older!

            By the time I start having kids, if I ever do, they'll be lucky if they have two living parents. Maybe I should hope for girls, it's not easy kicking a football around with a zimmerframe.

              Good point - my parents are youngish, even if my dad did frighten the tulipe out of us last year... so with anyluck we can ship the kids back to Ireland...

              I say "we" like there is actually a significant other in my life.....

                As if you don't tease the fellas on here enough as it is. They won't be able to cope if they think they're in with a chance.

                I think we need a flirt divert setting up on this forum, this nun's going to be the death of us. I'm already going blind from her avatar alone.

                  The Lover may sparkle and glow,
                  Approaching his bonnie wee play-thing:
                  But Marriage - will soon let him know
                  He’s gotten—a buskit up naething.

                    I approach marriage like I do permiedom. "Sure, yeah I'm interested in becoming a permie. Let me think about it while you give me another 3 month extension."
