@NeedToKnow101 I was thinking it woild be nice to do it in real life

[OfficiallAnAwardWinningPoster]

It's a lovely idea, but aren't we from all over the UK?

Coffee's up in Scotland.

I'm south-east

[AJumpedUpPantryBoy]

Huge congratulations to all winners.

We had no WiFi yesterday so I couldn’t join the party but it looks as if you had a lovely time!

[OfficiallAnAwardWinningPoster]

croaks Morning all.

Pantry, you missed quite a party.

Is it me, or is it very bright in here? .

I don't quite understand (a) why I'm wearing Babooshka's dress and (b) why it is I've somehow got every single person's award. Did you all give me yours last night because you thought I deserved it? Sweet of you all. But I don't need everyone's awards. Do I? Perhaps I do.

Anyway, back to the reason for these threads. Here's one for anyone who wasn't lucky last night:

But if we'd made it
Could we be sure that it was for the better?
Who could say we would have stayed together?
Nothing is certain, in a changing world

80s
(and if you get this, you SHOULD have won an award!)

[OfficiallAnAwardWinningPoster]

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

80s

Hot-shot, give me no problems
Much later, baby, you'll be saying nevermind
You know life is cruel, life is never kind (kind hearts)

80s

You know I can't make it all alone sometimes that's the way, that's the way
I'm not saying
I'm not saying I don't love you
Just got to do what I want to do

80s

It's easy to
Lay down and hide
Where's the warrior
Without his pride?

80s

[midgebabe]

I thought that I heard you laughing

REM

Losing my religion

[midgebabe]

Hot shots...,


Kim Wilde .. kids in America ?

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Morning all

But if we'd made it
Could we be sure that it was for the better?
Who could say we would have stayed together?
Nothing is certain, in a changing world

Oh dear I know this one . . . . Every loser wins, Nick Berry

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

You know I can't make it all alone sometimes that's the way, that's the way
I'm not saying
I'm not saying I don't love you
Just got to do what I want to do

And this one sounds like Wherever I lay my hat, either Hall & Oates or Paul Young

[midgebabe]

Paul young did wherever I lay my hat I think

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Thank you @midgebabe.

[midgebabe]

Can I have an autograph @CoffeeBeansGalore

[SingingBabooshkaBadly]

Morning. Does anyone remember exactly what happened at the after party?

At least I now know where my dress went but can anyone explain why I woke up wearing this? And how did I acquire two traffic cones, a policeman’s helmet, an entire Mariachi band and a goat?

And why is H from Steps asleep on my patio..?

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

😊 Dear @midgebabe

With kindest regards

CoffeeBeansGalore

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

@SingingBabooshkaBadly My neighbour will be round to pick up their goat later. Have you seen their donkey? 🤣

[SingingBabooshkaBadly]

Oh. That may explain the noises I’ve been hearing.

Anyone know the best way to assist a donkey down from an attic?

[midgebabe]

@SingingBabooshkaBadly

Tap it on its ass?

[NeedToKnow101]

Anyone seen my awards? Seem to have disappeared.

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

@NeedToKnow101 This one was with the goat . . .

@shinynewapple2020

For all the winners !

But that was in the bad old days before I met you
When I let you
Walk into my heart .....

1970s (I think )

Afternoon everyone

Don't know if this song from yesterday was too uncool to be guessed but it was Cliff Richard's Congratulations. Dedicated to @OfficiallAnAwardWinningPoster

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

Awww that's nice of you @shinynewapple2020.

@OfficiallAnAwardWinningPoster how kind of you to save @NeedToKnow101s trophy. She will be delighted when you hand it over 👍

[ThatLibraryMiss]

Thank you very much to whoever nominated me; I am humbly amazed. I've really enjoyed taking part in these threads and will see you lot in the next one.

[CoffeeBeansGalore]

@ThatLibraryMiss 😊👍

[OfficiallAnAwardWinningPoster]

That's very kind, shiny. Thank you. And congratulations to you too. Your trophy looks great on my shelf.

Coffee, as you and the others are discovering, unfortunately nice and kind people won't persuade those with no morals, principles or decency to do the 'right' thing.
