Facebook/Diary/Apologies

Hello everyone,

Just a quick note to let you all know that my old Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/s.php?k=100000080&id=1508200338&sid=2b72d8ede07ef523ba5a852fd9894173) has been reactivated, so I will be using that one again.

I have been working hard on (teehee) my project recently, as I only have 17 days until the deadline, so will be posting up a lot more stuff in the next couple of days. One of the things that I have been working on is the diary that I have been keeping during the project and I will begin to upload parts of it in the next day or so.

I have also just begun to realise how many of you got in contact with me and how incredibly crap I was/have been about replying to all the messages. It seems incredibly rude; something I want to stress I never intended to be, however the project took off so quickly and had so many responses to it, that I got behind on replying to everyone. I am working through emails at the moment, so you will get a reply, albeit a slightly belated one.

Marriage Questionnaire

Hello all,

Was just wondering whether or not anyone would mind filling in a short and confidential questionnaire about marriage for my project?

You don't have to be married to fill it it; I'm just interested in finding out people's views on marriage for the research element of my project.

If you wouldn't mind, just send me an email to joyfulcynic@googlemail.com and I will forward you a copy.

Thanks!

Apologies

I know that when I started out, I promised to update this regularly and reply personally to each and every individual email that I was sent, which I will do in due course - honest!

The project has gone really well and I've met some excellent people, both in person an over teh interwebs, though unfortunately it looks like there isn't going to be a wedding before my June 6th deadline. I have narrowed my shortlist down, however the three men on it are all indisposed for various reasons.

I have also taken up internet dating, which has been good so far - not met anyone who was too weird (if anything they've been too normal, but maybe that's just a reflection of my personality rather than theirs) but I've also unfortunately not met anyone suitable for marriage through it.

This for me is going to be an ongoing project and I will continue searching and updating this with my progress.
