h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

hi there
-
didnt want to hog the weather thread.
-
i spoke to his lass(girlfriend in london) last night, to let her know ive sent some pics of me.
-
he,s an hairdresser and was at work,
-
i spoke to him a few days back, i found his mother is about 2 miles from me, so i gave him the addy, she as been in contact, and like most women she as thrown a second spanner in in the works, that she must have at least cheated on me in 1966, she said there is another possibility.
-
so now its see if there is any conection in the pics, jim

Wow - without meaning to trivialise it, how soap opera-esque! No wonder it's been taking you some time to get your head around that. I wouldn't know where to start.

Did you know he existed before?

hi bally
-
in 1966 i was in the army, me and tonys mother had parted monts before( she must have been pregnant then), i joined the army in 17th jan, but at the end of jan we haddent started to train, so i was putting up targets in the butts on the rifle range for other units.
-
on the first of feb, i came back to have dinner and was told to go to the c and c, he said my lass was having a baby,i was being sent back home for two days,
-
it was the morning of the 1st of feb, tony was born hours before i got to the hospital. i had him in my arms with a bottle the same day.
-
the next day i went back, then a few weeks later i was discharged on comasionate grounds( mother was ill) so me and his mother planned after mother got better to get married or live together to start, but her father wanted us to be at the flat top floor, no way. big rbustup, and i had no say. later in 1966 i left home to manchester, stayed for 4 yrs, wasnt till i got home the first time i was told she had the baby taken off her, around the time i left home. couldnt find him files sealed, no info
-
now after 41 yrs he found me, she said im not the father, he seems happy to say i am. what a soap opera lol jim

That would be doing my head in! I really do hope that there's a positive outcome for all of you from this. I'm sure it will work out. You must be looking forward to getting to know your son. How exciting!

hi bally
-
he,s in london, im up in yorkshire, so if he does come up in september, it will probably be the first and last time we will be able to meet.
-
im disabled, nearly 60, so travelling to london isnt on my agenda now.it took a lot out of me going for a week to scotland last yr.lol.
-
my life as been a soap opera, as you called it for all my life.
-
if you visit smurlfes page, there is a thred called memeory lane, i added a lot of my early life there. the house i lived in at the time i went in the armry for instance, was all gas, no electric, i lived there from the age of 11 till i was 19, and joined the army. jim
