The RB thing is still something that I think about every so often. No regrets or anything and I don't see it as a chance missed because (unusually) I did my part... RB made her decision, but I still can't help feel that she has missed a chance at some great fun. A commented on how strange it was that I continued to see her out and about (I reckon I see her once every ten days), but I've never had the chance to stop and chat (assuming that she would).
USHW has been quiet for a long time. I think the last time we had anything resembling a conversation was back in July. If you still pass by here every now and again, USHW, drop me a line.

Progress of sorts.
So, I did call that number about the new living conditions and things are progressing, albeit slowly. I should have a final answer tomorrow and then things should move fairly quickly after that. I don't have much to buy in order to move out of the family home into a shared house - bedding and linen mainly, and that can be done all within a few days. The only negative point is that I'd be the first in the house which means living on my own for a while. I'd not mind that, but I am mindful of the bills that I'd rack up on my own without being able to split them two or even three ways. Still... that's getting ahead of myself. We'll see what happens tomorrow.

So, last night...
FP and I took ourselves off to see the new James Bond film, Quantum of Solace. It's really very good (although probably not as good as Casino Royale). Gemma Arterton is lovely in it as Strawberry Fields.
We nipped out for a couple of pints afterwards and, typical of my luck, a girl that appeared to be RB was in the pub. I say "appeared", because for the entire time myself and FP were in the pub, she was sat talking to a friend with her back to me and not once did she turn her head, get up to go for a smoke or use the ladies facilities. I would say that I was 90% positive it was her, though, given the small amount I know about RB... same hairstyle (I think) and colour, a similar handbag to the one I remember RB carrying and same shoes. This isn't conclusive, of course, but as I said, I'm fairly confident it was her.
We drank up and left, though. I didn't say anything to FP about it until it was too late and he suggested that I'd said something, even if it mean hanging around for another drink to see if it was her. I should have done that, in hindsight.
Anyway, that's done and dusted. I can't do anything about that. I do have a number to call this afternoon about a potential change in linving conditions. That could open up a lot of possibilities as I'd be more likely to be pro-active in the online dating thing, for example, once I get out of here into somewhere else.
