[Romantic Old Bird]

Monie, everyone, let Sticks enjoy himself.

Nothing like a bit of the wailing and the gnashing of the teeth, not to mention a bit of the renting of garments and the ritual ullulaying to set one up of a morning, now is there Sticksie?


I do suspect James is right, though. For a God fearing man, Sticks is worryingly fascinated in the dark side .....................


For myself, although I always have a tendency to fear the worst, I do think Helen is a very positive person, and Paul is generally cheerful and optimistic. As we all know, he's hardly ever sensible, but he's sensible when he needs to be sensible!

All couples have to endure tests on their relationship. If they care about each other enough, it will make them stronger -us against them.

My guess is that Paul will be feeling very protective and caring towards her. He's a bit old fashioned, and I think he will feel it's his duty to look after her. She'll be all upset and vulnerable and trying to be cheerful, and it will lead to lots of hugs and cuddles.

I think they'll be alright!
