@SingingBabooshkaBadly I never realised Jeremy Healey was in that group Hayzee fantayzee!

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 19/08/2020 20:18

@CrepuscularCritter - an impressive double with Cracked Actor and Brla Lugosi’s Dead 🌟🌟🌟

@Honeyroar - hello! How was your first day?

Bela, not Bria. I think my spellcheck is illiterate...

I’m guessing he’s probably happy to keep it quiet! 😂

An angel's smile is what you sell You promise me heaven, then put me through hell Chains of love got a hold on me When passion's a prison, you can't break free 1980s

You give love a bad name

Thanks everyone for your good luck wishes. I had a good day. It was nice to be back in the real world, so to speak! It’s only a part time job in a new lovely coffee shop, but when you take off what I used to spend commuting from the north west to Heathrow and take off the 40% pay cut I’d have got if I’d stayed at BA I’m not actually earning much less, and it’s much more friendly. Lots to learn though.

One from further back -
It moved me, it really moved me
Is that I’m in love with a German filmstar? No idea who sang it though.

Fleamaker123 · 19/08/2020 20:34

That sounds good Honeyroar 😊

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 19/08/2020 20:34

It is @Honeyroar. I’ll leave it in case someone else knows who sang it.

Great news you enjoyed your first day. Sounds like the change is going to be a good one for you. 😊

NeedToKnow101 · 19/08/2020 20:42

Glad you had a good first day Honeyroar, sounds like a more relaxing pace of life for now.
And, most importantly, it gives you more time to play here!

NeedToKnow101 · 19/08/2020 20:44

I'm sure some of you were ravers.. you got this...

I'll be there every morning, baby
To hold you tight
And that's why, baby
You don't have to wonder why
Why I love you, I need you
Got to have, have you
I need you, oh, right now

Honeyroar · 19/08/2020 20:51

@NeedToKnow101 😆. I’m here far too much! I’m looking forward to a new future spending more time at home with my family and furries. Xmas off etc. I loved my time flying, I’ll never regret it, but the golden days have gone and I’m happy to walk away. You guys have been so lovely throughout a big bump in my pathway. These threads have kept me distracted!
🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷 wish I could buy you all a drink.xx

CrepuscularCritter · 19/08/2020 20:53

I'm in love with a German film star was The Passions. So glad you got it Honeyroar...I've been singing it all evening!

Honeyroar · 19/08/2020 20:58

I’d never have got the group @CrepuscularCritter

Honeyroar · 19/08/2020 21:00

Did anyone get my lanes one from last night?

The lanes were silent
There was nothing,no one, nothing
Around for miles

Don't recognise that one Honeyroar...

We got your message on the radio, conditions normal and you're coming home

Come on in, and close the door

Honeyroar · 19/08/2020 21:37

@Fleamaker123 your first one is Ebola Gay OMD.
The other one rings a bell. Is it Driving away from home? As usual I don’t know who! Male.

CoffeeBeansGalore · 19/08/2020 21:39

Yes Honeyroar for OMD

No sorry for the second one... they were a male and female duet, think they did Opportunity Knocks

SingingBabooshkaBadly · 19/08/2020 21:45

Yes Honeyroar for OMD

Oh god, can’t believe I know this - and am prepared to admit it Blush

Would that be Welcome Home by Peters and Lee..?

Fleamaker123 · 19/08/2020 21:46

I think I just made the Opportunity Knocks bit up 😂🤣 they were on every other tv programme though!

Honeyroar · 19/08/2020 21:47

Ah yes @SingingBabooshkaBadly of course it is!

Fleamaker123 · 19/08/2020 21:48
