Wow-ember??!!!


Seriously where has time gone??! I know its November but I can still remember the start of this year!

I have to start by saying, I get direct messages on my twitter account and I have to say I am so humbled and greatful for the support and kind words.  It reassures me and encourages me to write more....more so from the heart :) So this is me saying to you....A BIG thank you :) <3
  • As we are in November here are some movements that are happing this month:
  • No Shave November (Ladies you know them no shaving legs flex is added heat/warm protection in winter!!! ;p )
  • Movember
  • National Blog Posting Month (NaBloPoMo)
  • In Old English November was ‘Windmonath’ (wind month) or ‘Blotmonath’ (blood or sacrifice month).
  • The name ‘November’ comes from the Latin for nine (novem), as it was the ninth month of the Roman calendar.
  • The Dutch called it ‘slachtmaand’ (slaughter month); in Welsh it is ‘Tachwedd’, also meaning ‘slaughter’ referring to the killing of animals.
  • Also the month of every year I reflect on the past year gone, as I realise the end of the current year is on the horizon.... And start to have that Del Boy quote moment "This time next year I"ll be........???!!! (A year closer to spinsterhood! This has now been my tradition for many a year now).
Anyhooo.....Looking back at the year gone by, one thing is for sure I have met so many amazing people, family and friends who I have not seen in years.  :) Also not to mention the new friends I have picked up along the way :) And how could I forget the stars of my blogs....All the encounters with Mr not quite right(s)! I have to say there are a few on this list I have not blogged about!!!
  • Mr (West London) 
  • Mr (East London) 
  • Cindafella
  • The Fireman
  • The Bear (I have never mentioned The Bear until now...I shall come back to this one). 
  • Mr Mayfair -An international business guy who was a globe trotter who would contact me at unearthly hours due to his random travel locations and had crazy small minded views and had to always be right! And just drove me up the wall with his views and arguments as I don't agree with him!
  • Mr Twit-er (A guy messaged me on twitter, and we got charting and low and behold...turned out to be married).
  • Mr Super Nice (A super duper nice guy, not blogged about this one as I got introduced akwardly to him in the motherland by my cousin, and well bless him....he was sweet....and a tad stuck in the 1980's in the sense of everything Bollywood....hard to explain but I get it lol)
  • Mr Brazil (No he was not brazilian just we went opposite sides of the earth at the same time and his location earned him his nickname and it was the only way my friends would remember him by....lol......A really nice guy I met a few times...before we each went on our travels.....when I went to the motherland he went to Brazil and it seemed being further away half way across the planet we communicated more than ever and kept in touch a lot, however back in blighty we met up again and something in the what's app communication connection had gone not only on what's app....but in person too......And suddenly....."Pouff" he Dissapeared!
  • Congratulations
  • Lord North West Colindale of London
The Bear:

The reason for this name....out of all the guys I have met...he's a big giant muscly hunky bear with beard and everything...*hmmmmmmm*.....mind you including  he had the moodyness of a big bear too! He was from one of these sites, but last two years or so messaged me on and off and went aloof....until this year....He messaged me "Let's just meet up"....To which I was like OK! So we met up for some chai, he was ever so charming, well spoken and for a first he mentioned his mum straight off......He said she knew one of my family members which took me more by surprise....1.He mentioned me to his mum? 2.He knew of my family!? Green ticks right?? Anyhooo for a first meeting it was really chilled casual and nice :)
So we got chatting and met up quite a bit and from what it seemed to me he was interested....There where times I had been out with my girlfriends and he messaged asking what was I up to and when I said I was out and about in London....low and behold he would hurry from where ever he was and join us....which ment my friends met him and also thought he was really nice got on with him and liked him.  One thing I liked, The bear was a complete gent around me, and really respectful....Once we met up and he was so fidgety to the point he was sitting on his hands and I swear he had this really weird look like a deer caught in headlights kinda look.....I think he picked up on my confused/amused/what is wrong with you today look? But each time we hung out the Convo flowed and he was a laugh to be around....but that weird caught in the headlights moment...What was that all about?...I half kinda knew....but he knew I noticed his odd behaviour.....He messaged me...he said when he is with me, he would prob make a move but then look at me and say I looked sooooo innocent and felt so bad for even trying to......lol.....I just found it amusing how lil 5ft"3 me can make a big 5"11 bear (who's a bouncer at times at one of London's  biggest busiest clubs also) have a scared look on his face....lol......To which I then said...."OK what's going on here"...The bear then said "If someone was to ask me would I marry you tomorrow, I would say 'No'....But then again who's to say that could change? I was like "huh?".....See the thing with the bear, he was giving mixed messages, away from me would be so flirty and dead cheeky....and in person a complete gent.....??!!
Either way we hung out a lot and he never laid a finger on me, which I liked....He knew I'm not that type of girl to mess around with. Even while his cheeky messages carried on...I let it slide as in person he was a total gent....I even made him my famous biscuits that I always get hounded for....He said he "liked" them squinting as he tried one...(I knew he loved them but he din't want to admit it.....everyone loves my biscuits ;p).......However his Mum and brothers "loved" them....(course I was thinking I must be in there if his mum and brothers liked my baking skills without even meeting them - Yep TYPICAL female way of thinking I know lol!).  However on the other side of things, he would get on a downer...and I am quite a positive person, and more than anything I will always be a friend first to anyone I am getting to know. He moaned about work and home life, and I was encouraging, understanding and supportive as much as I possibly could..I'm quite patient...But over the weeks it started to get me down....and more so his negativity drained me.......I never got a thanks or the smallest appreciation for my help and advice, time....friendship even.....And it seemed so one sided....more about him....He became distant and cold......
Eventually I left the moody bear to it in his cave....I got a lot of hot and cold mix signals from The Bear to the point I just left alone and he did too...To which after he said Not being ready etc", he was still very much active on the dating sites....hmmmm.....*raises an eyebrow*.....oh well.....If anything it just assured me that I'm sure of myself and really comfortable of how I am and what I am.....As the year is coming to an end.....I am just greatful for each new day.  His loss and he won't be getting non of ma biscuits anymore either ;p

One of my favourite books is The Alchemist....and with each new day we are all given the chance....Tomorrow someone can walk out of your life forever.....However tomorrow someone could walk into your life and end up staying forever......




P.s Apologies for spelling and grammer.....its silly o clock and I shall Bid you good night ;)
