    New On The Forum

    Hi,

    I just found this forum and it seems great. My boyfriend is in Afghanistan and have missed him over Christmas. He is 19 and it is his first tour.

    Paula,

    Welcome to RP. If you have a search there are lots of threads on here regarding OH's being away and how to cope should you get stuck.

    In the meantime, when the bar opens mine is a brandy sour.

    Hi and welcome

    My OH has been away this Christmas, although it's not his first, it is mine, first Christmas, New year and Valentines that he's away, but just think of it this way, how you can celebrate them all once he's home...

    Anyway, as has been said - lots of threads on how to cope, easiest way is keep occupied - although for me, this month, that's partially doing my tax return - urrgh!

    So when the bars open, mines a large glass of white please!
    Nothing to see here, move on by....

    Hi Paula, my OH is also over there (although due back in 20 days) we missed our first christmas and new year together but will be making up lost time while he is on leave during February I found this place absolutely brilliant and like the others have said, there are many other threads that will give you advice. I was new to Army life but thanks to this site I have a bit of a better understanding of things now x
