Nix (knickers, knicks), anorl (and all, an' all) Grin have I got that right aviator?

Keyra · 10/12/2018 20:44

Oh! Thank you - obvious now I've had it explained. Thought it was a fancy Latin term like annus horriblis or however you spell it!

Keyra · 10/12/2018 21:16

Cg has just text to ask if he can continue to use my garage for storage after the job has finished - and says obviously he'll pay. I don't know what to say.

And as a total aside, I have gin in my eye and it stings like buggery! It looks like I've been crying for a month - hope it subsides by tomorrow.

wannabebetter · 10/12/2018 21:39

Ooh CG is playing the long game, securing future opportunities to visit.... I love to imagine him on some sort of 'builders net' asking advice on how to get in your nix win you over....

AviatorShades · 10/12/2018 22:06

Oh Keyra, I don't know how you managed to get gin in your eyeShock but I reckon you need to dilute it with an eyebath of tonic water...Wink

And thank you ladies upthread for providing a translationGrin.You know those "I've found a shopping list" threads we get sometimes? I've always wondered if anyone would be able to decipher mine...Sometimes even I can't decipher what I've written.

Builders net!!

Oh yes, CG is strategising! Wonder if this means CB would continue to be around too?!

CandleWithHair · 11/12/2018 16:25

I know we can’t talk you into fancying C.G. if you don’t, but I really wish you did because he just sounds ace. He definitely wants to find ways to keep seeing you, why on earth would he suggest renting your garage when there are heaps Of businesses specifically in that line of work. He luffs you.

NotNowAudrey · 11/12/2018 21:13

I'm sorry, are we all just going to skirt over the fact that cb said He will come back to make tea
He would definitely not say that if the wasn't into you keyra! Ooh this has made my week :)

Keyra · 11/12/2018 21:43

Audrey I think he may be looking at me in a purely maternal fashion :(.

I had to give cg a lift somewhere this morning. I can't park on the drive currently due to the skip so my car is up the road a bit. As we left the driveway who should be walking towards us but formerly lovely male neighbour (CLMN). I muttered "Oh crap no" and cg said "it's fine, don't worry" and caught hold of my hand Shock. Don't know what CLMN made of that but I was immensely grateful to cg.

I'm contemplating having an end-of-works (whenever that may be!) reunion drinks gathering and inviting all cast members. Good idea or not?

NotNowAudrey · 11/12/2018 21:50

Ooh my . Did you have even the slights of belly -fanny- flutters when he grabbed your hand?!

Keyra · 11/12/2018 21:55

I think maybe I did a bit. But was it gratitude for being there for me? Oh I don't know! I never thought having the builders in could be so complicated.

RollerCoasterProteinSpill · 11/12/2018 22:10

This thread is my life now!
Keyra I have my fingers and everything crossed for you to get a Happy Ever After whether it's with CG, CB or a new character!

NotNowAudrey · 11/12/2018 22:12

Oh they're so lovely. Don't rule out cg. But then don't rule out cb... just because you think he's seeing you as a maternal figure doesn't mean he is! X

picklemebaubles · 12/12/2018 07:05

Maybe it's a slow burn kinda thing. I love his confidence.

KnittingSister · 12/12/2018 14:37

Definitely an end of works party. Can we all come? We'll bring cake and wine Grin

BurningTheToast · 12/12/2018 15:45

If this thread, or sequence of threads, doesn't end with @Keyra telling us 'reader, I married him,' I shall be very disappointed.

Still #teamCG here

Princesspeachy0 · 12/12/2018 15:50

Oh CG is such a sweetheart! Let him use your garage whenever he wants Grin

Aneira11 · 12/12/2018 20:20

@Keyra - are you buying the guys Christmas presents??? Cos I totally think CG will buy you something!

Ariela · 12/12/2018 22:20

I keep thinking it's Friday and wondering if Keyra, CG, and CB go to the pub.
Just discovered it's still Wednesday.

Lollygaggles · 13/12/2018 11:05

I'm coming out of hiding to say this is my favourite thread ever and please can we all come to your house for a Christmas get together and strategy meeting! Grin

Keyra · 13/12/2018 15:04

Certainly you can come to my party Knitting if when work finishes :). And Lolly if there was actually any space in the whole of my downstairs you'd be very welcome. But there isn't! I've had to cancel my weekend visitors .

Just need to tell you that I left cb this morning up a ladder painting. Wearing a white t shirt. And no teeth. Was hard to leave I tell you ...

Aneira no I don't think I'll buy presents but I'm thinking I'll offer drinks tomorrow afternoon. Or try and pluck up courage to suggest the pub.

Tisahardlife · 13/12/2018 16:05

I think CG if not both will buy you presents...

What about gin? You could treat them to a taste testing session of different gins the Friday afternoon before Christmas, they may then confess their smitteness with you...

CG is definitely keeping a future opening with the garage thing...

January2015 · 14/12/2018 05:24

It’s Friday! Go for it Keyra!

Pennina · 14/12/2018 09:13

Get the mistletoe up!

picklemebaubles · 14/12/2018 09:14

I suppose getting them both sozzled could be the way to go... they may fess up, then!

Maybe crushy builder is just a hormonal blip, a bit of fantasy, and CG is the real deal....

I dunno, I think I'm Team both of them! Have you told anyone in RL?
