Long distance relationships

[angel-cake]

do you think a long distance relationship can work?

If you spend every weekend with your partner, but did not see them in the week.

Does anyone have a long distance relationship?

You would of just been starting secondry education, be blowed if I can remember the name of the road but it looked out onto the Cannock Chase? and it was the road you would take exiting Rugeley to Cannock ......... dead miffed you don't know her, often wonder how she is getting on.

[PhilBy]

The back of the house looked over Cannock Chase!

hednesford road, stile cop road, pear tree estate?? perhaps

Hednesford Road ......... Blimey! I must of written that 100's of times and still forgot it .... DOH! She lived more or less right at the end and there was a telephone box outside of the house, shame you didn't know her... I have not been in touch since 1985 so I guess they must of moved on... she was a Rugeley lass born & bred as I remember her showing me the schools she went to when she was a bairn.

Loads of memories are flooding back here........ just hope I don't mutter her name when I'm asleep or I will wake up nutless :-o

Hi angel-cake. It certainly can work - Mrs Pid & I met when I was in London & she was in Newcastle. We didn't see each other every weekend but couldn't stay off the phone / email. Eventually I found work up north & now we're happily married with a beautiful baby boy
