I love that top, really suits you. Where did you get it?

I got an invite to Strange Par's Tupperware party, but after what happened at her Ann Summers I thought it wise to make my excuses.... I cant afford another round of therapy...

chesntoots Do you have lasting scars? Are they physical or psychological?

Chesntoots · 28/03/2020 23:38

I have both physical and mental. The physical have almost gone now, but as for psychological? Some things will never heal...

@FredaFrogspawn - I never mither with Ken Dodds bonus ball bingo. I heard they fix the meat raffle for those willing to pander to the caller's proclivities. I've never been able to look at a Gregg's steak slice in the same way since I heard how he liked to eat it and with what; red sauce! Perverse, I say. [hoiks left bosom]

I was at Pat's too. I think you're mean to call her strange, I'd like to see how you all would have turned out if that had happened to you. I admit it was funny at the time - that poor pig.

I loved her party but I have no idea why she invites that Anne Summers rep - lowers the tone and it's hard to hear anything with those noisy vibrators on.

Pat has pampas grass, say no more

poppadopolis · 29/03/2020 09:31

@SlowHorse How very dare you!!!! I have never pandered to anyone in my life I may have pampas grass though

Eckhart I was at the AS party too. I have flashbacks that start with the words "...and these split-crotch panties"

You just can't unhear and unsee some things.

Eckhart · 29/03/2020 12:36

@SoapIsYourFriend I think calling her strange comes from the fact that she allowed the pig to get on the kids' trampoline in the first place. Asking for trouble in my opinion. I mean, it's her business what goes on behind closed doors in her own house, but there were quite a lot of other people there too. It's really not ok.

@TSSDNCOP Yes, I can imagine. What has your therapist said regarding dealing with the flashbacks? It feels sort of inappropriate to be using the word 'flash' in this context, somehow. I do apologise.

SlowHorse · 29/03/2020 13:02

@poppadopolis - if the hobnail boot fits ... All I'm saying is you could have slipped me a couple of Faggots for my Brian's tea; you know how he loves a pair smothered in gravy before he goes for his evening pint of Pina Colada at the Legion.

I'm not wasting a slick of deodorant going up to the bingo when results already settled like Saturday ITV wrestling [hoiks both bosoms in umbrage - right out of Cross Your Heart double support bra and over shoulders]

poppadopolis · 29/03/2020 13:13

@SlowHorse

yes, we all know about Brian Hmm

SlowHorse · 29/03/2020 13:20

@poppadopolis. What are you trying to infer? My Brian's twice the man yours is and he can do a mean Fandango plus he's good with colours.

poppadopolis · 29/03/2020 13:47

So why is his photo still up in the butchers then?

SoapIsYourFriend · 29/03/2020 13:52

It's not just up in the butchers - it's plastered by that bus stop by Mad Penny's.

lamppostdog · 29/03/2020 13:59

Frank in the Post Office told me all about it

SoapIsYourFriend · 29/03/2020 14:00

Frank can bloody talk. I can still hardly walk.

TSSDNCOP · 29/03/2020 14:00

Now come on, if we all believed everything bloody Frank in the Post Office said where would we be?

TSSDNCOP · 29/03/2020 14:02

Our Maureen says she can't count the number of times she's wanted to pull his tie through the stamp tray and put the scales on top of it.

lamppostdog · 29/03/2020 14:11

Frank was right though about one eyed Alan and our Christine, bloody lied to my face at Destiny-Rae's christening she did. I've never looked at a mauve cardigan the same since.

FredaFrogspawn · 29/03/2020 14:15

So glad I bumped into you lot - I was about to email Jolene and ask her round and help her bloody self. Poor Bert - driving me crazy but he has improved slightly since he caught me tapping each patio slab to find out which ones are loose.

Did you try that bread pudding recipe I included in the parish magazine? I know it’s hard to get bromide these days but my god it works.

TSSDNCOP · 29/03/2020 14:16

Even a broken clocks right twice a day lamp. And to be fair, mauve? It's not everyone's colour is it?

poppadopolis · 29/03/2020 14:34

bloody lied to my face at Destiny-Rae's christening she did

The vicar told my Nan's cleaner that he had to use Ajax to get the stains out.

lamppostdog · 29/03/2020 15:55

Well the least said about that cleaner and her attempt at bread pudding the better

SlowHorse · 29/03/2020 16:46

Cleaner? Bit too fond of the Communion wine if you catch my drift - have you seen the state of the Vicar's front step? Comes second only to She who shall not be named @poop.

Anyways, my Brian's pic was only up to advertise his services as a window cleaner. He told me if it generated enough interest he'd actually shell out on a chammy and bucket - no point on a ladder, he's dead talented in shimmying up drainpipes or scrambling up next door's trellis; don't know why she made such a fuss - should have had curtains shut at 4pm, the hussy.

poppadopolis · 29/03/2020 16:53

The front step will come up fine with a donkey stone and a bit of elbow grease.

"Window cleaner" LOL. Those of us of a certain age all know that that means.
