I met livingboy down the local, where they were helpfully collecting all the almost empty glasses. I thought it odd they left the completely empty ines until i spotted them filling their own drink with it.
They begged me not to tell the landlord and we got chatting. Turns out a run of bad luck had landed them living with their mum and the fact she was a narcissist was driving them to drink, only they had no money because they didnt have a job. They even had to sell the 50 inch tv and their goat because they were that skint!

I met TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross when we were on special attachment to NASA for Astronaut training. Sorry can't divulge anything further than that.

I met flamingtoaster when I helped her load some cases into a van once. Saw her carrying them out of the local jewellers and she seemed to be struggling, especially with a stocking pulled over her head! (an interesting sartorial choice but that's our flaming!) There were a lot of cases and they were pretty heavy. She thanked me, but drove off very fast which I thought was a bit rude.

SquishySquirmy and I were finalists in a cheese-rolling competition. Squishy was all set to win but then tripped over my cheese, breaking a chunk off and twisting her ankle - we were both disqualified, because the organisers thought I'd tripped her deliberately.

I met ScreamngValenta at Harry and Meghan's wedding - I didn't like her hat but the "turn" she did at the Reception got the biggest cheer of the night.

Knittedfairies · 25/08/2018 20:48

I rang the emergency services when I noticed flamingtoaster had her head stuck in a piece of equipment in the playground. ( She shouldn’t even have been on the monkey swing as she’s over 12.)

VanillaSugar · 25/08/2018 21:54

@Knittedfairies gave me the clap.

ToucanPlayAtThatGame · 25/08/2018 21:57

I met @VanillaSugar when she married my brother. I've never liked her and her Sunday roasts are abysmal. But her hair is fucking fabulous.

BeeFarseer · 25/08/2018 22:00

@ToucanPlayAtThatGame was in the audience of a Jeremy Kyle show I was on. I noticed her from the stage because she was the only person with all their teeth. I found her after the show and she told me about this amazing minty stuff called toothpaste.

SneakyGremlins · 25/08/2018 22:01

I met @BeeFarseer at the local farmers market, where I bought her left nostril for the bargain price of £375839582.68

mollymcguire · 25/08/2018 22:02

@BeeFarseer sure we met only today at the popes visit up in Dublin, a grand young wan, loves a mug of tea and a natter, sure not a nicer lass could ye meet!

2littleguineas · 25/08/2018 22:04

I met @SneakyGremlins when she sold me two gremlins for €6755 but they turned out to be guinea pigs.

Allycumpooster · 25/08/2018 22:47

@2littleguineas is my chimney sweep. We actually met several years ago when she was trying to make a go of it as a burlesque dancer and I happened to be in the audience one night. I didn’t mean to be there. I had a ticket for a different show but I stumbled into 2littleguineas show and couldn’t leave, mesmerising.
She now cleans my chimney, I have no idea why.

BeeFarseer · 25/08/2018 22:50

@Allycumpooster attended the same sugarcrafting class as me. I'd never seen anyone make a full-sized pug sculpture out of spun sugar before, but Allycumpooster gave it a collar and everything.

SquishySquirmy · 25/08/2018 23:01

@ScreamingValenta A likely story! You cost me the championship!
Cheese rolling was my life! My life go dda!it!!!!!

SquishySquirmy · 25/08/2018 23:02

Nah seriously we 're cool.

wishingtrees · 25/08/2018 23:08

BeeFarseer was a contestant on Britain’s Hot Talent, a talent show for people who ate fire and juggled flamethrowers. She asked for a volunteer from the audience as I happened to be passing the stage and the rest is history. We toured with our act for several years until the price of petrol put us out of business.

chocolateworshipper · 25/08/2018 23:10

wishingtrees once parked on my drive. I had to call 101, put up penguin bollards AND call the local rugby team.

BeeFarseer · 25/08/2018 23:23

@wishingtrees, that was uncannily accurate as I used to do fire performance stuff. Grin Poi and staff though, I can't juggle to save my life...

.... but that's what @chocolateworshipper did. I was kidnapped in a tragic case of mistaken identity and the kidnappers would only release the hostages if the lead hostage negotiator would juggle five geese. Chocolateworshipper juggled SIX.

RespoDad · 25/08/2018 23:48

@BeeFarseer once took me up the @r5e

AdultHumanFemale · 25/08/2018 23:53

Yaaawn. I once washed RespoDad 's mouth out with a particularly caustic soap.

MrsDarcyIwish · 25/08/2018 23:57

I met RespoDad at work. In fact I was his/her N+1 for 6 years. He/she was crap at his/her job, tried it on with all the temps and in the end I had no choice but to fire him/het when he/she got pissed at the Christmas do and threw up all over the big boss and his lovely wife.

ScreamingValenta · 25/08/2018 23:59

@SquishySquirmy Oooh, can't believe after so many years you're still feeling cheesed off!

UpstartCrow · 26/08/2018 00:02

I met ScreamingValenta back in the day at a John Cooper Clark gig. She heckled him and told him he looked like a pair of binoculars on a tripod, and he bought her a pint for a good heckle.

firehousedog1 · 26/08/2018 00:06

upstartcrow was my best friend and until she slept with my dad.
