In the paper today we had a full-page color ad from some bloke saying sorry to his wife, girlfriend or significant sheila (but almost certainly not his mother).
I have to confess that I missed the ad until tonight when I was reading at a more leisurely pace. The ad says:
Sorry Princess. I’m sorry for all the horribly things I have said and done to you. I can’t ask you to forgive them, but please can you try and look past them? I know we can make this work. My love always, Jamie.
The ad is nicely designed, with flowers, love hearts and a cute bear holding a pink balloon with “I’m sooooo sorry” written inside.
You have to wonder what he said or did!
That’s actually kinda creepy, if you ask me. I mean, what if she wants to move on? Now he’s really putting her on the spot, huh?

Interesting viewpoint, not unreasonable. It’s a fine line between passion and stalking, I suppose.
The news update is that Western Australia’s state daily newspaper ran a humorous piece on our full-page ad. Local radio and TV were chasing poor Jamie all day.
We had the heads up on his phone number and tracked him down. He works night shift and was about to go to bed, so we only caught him late in the day … full story in Friday’s Kalgoorlie Miner.
Alas, "Princess" rejected his peace offer. The reasons for the split need more elaboration than I can give here.
