Honeyroar · 20/11/2020 20:00

Evening all!

@FlouncingBabooshka your 60s one is Dream a little dream of me. Dunno who by.

Honeyroar · 20/11/2020 20:00

Oops sorry, missed a page somehow!

Fleamaker123 · 20/11/2020 20:01

@FlouncerInDenial

P.s. for those of you who weren't able to avoid my self-pitying ranting earlier this week; Had a very productive meeting about it yesterday, everyone behaved very well and said all the right things. Very happy to move on, and thank you everyone for being so nice to me about my moaning x 😍💖
Glad you're feeling better FlouncerD... feel free to moan away whenever you want 😊
FlouncerInDenial · 20/11/2020 20:02

Moan, honey??? Fuck no! Too busy gloating that I'm thrashing you and flea 🤣🤣🤣

Fleamaker123 · 20/11/2020 20:02

Midge, is the theme dreaming? I've realised I'm not very good at cryptic 🤣

FlouncerInDenial · 20/11/2020 20:04

But thank you for being lovely. I was very upset. Kisses and hugs to all of you slightly inferior posters.
Do luffs you all

FlouncerInDenial · 20/11/2020 20:06

@FlouncerInDenial

Oh, hang on. The Fleetwood mac song is called dreams.

So the theme is dreams????

Well done, midge. You're pitching it right for my friday night, 1/2 way to getting sozzled brain

Ahem @Fleamaker123
Fleamaker123 · 20/11/2020 20:11

FlouncerD 😳 I feel like I'm being your echo tonight.. I'm giving up 😵

Honeyroar · 20/11/2020 20:12

Right I’m getting confused already and I’ve only just arrived! Where are we up to (apart from Flouncypants gloating)?

CoffeeBeansGalore · 20/11/2020 20:12

Evening all. Finally sat down. @FlouncerInDenial glad to see you are ok. Enjoy your 🍷.

One for thd theme
Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face gettin' clearer
The past is gone
It went by like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody got their dues in life to pay

I nearly put the monkeys one in myself so a bit gutted I missed the opportunity to guess it .

CarnageAtTheGardenCentre · 20/11/2020 20:20

@midgebabe

Ok, I am trying again with another theme...please don't run away just yet!

Since the last one was considered too hard, I have tried to make it easier
It’s so much easier now that honey already has half a point for sort of guessing it before I have posted it

And the destination makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness, still another mile
70s

To see for certain what I thought I knew
Far far away someone was weeping
90s

This one is a twist ...it’s not the title that leads to the theme
Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
.......

Up ahead in the distance
I saw a simmering light
70s

I travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
80s

Oh thunder only happens when it’s raining
Players only love you when they’re playing
70s

And the destination makes it worth the while Pushing through the darkness, still another mile 70s

Is that Abba - I have a dream @midgebabe?

midgebabe · 20/11/2020 20:24

@FlouncerInDenial

The born to run one continues ( from memory anyway! )

I want to share your dreams and visions

And yeah to all , you did so much better this week!

CarnageAtTheGardenCentre · 20/11/2020 20:26

[quote Bluesheep8]*@CarnageAtTheGardenCentre

YEEEEEEES!!! Well done! That was so quick Grin[/quote]
I must admit I was quite impressed with that @Bluesheep8 😁

Glad things are okay now @FlouncerInDenial x

FlouncerInDenial · 20/11/2020 20:45

@Fleamaker123

FlouncerD 😳 I feel like I'm being your echo tonight.. I'm giving up 😵
Please don't let my vile alcohol-riddled gob drive you away, flea!
FlouncerInDenial · 20/11/2020 20:46

Thank you, everyone.
Sorry about earlier this week

midgebabe · 20/11/2020 20:53

I'm heading over here ...

I was wrong, now I find
Just one thing makes me forget
80s

What's @FlouncerInDenial and everyone else on?

FlouncingBabooshka · 20/11/2020 21:00

@FlouncerInDenial

Oh, so slow, flea!!!!!
😬 weirdly, @FlouncerInDenial and @Fleamaker123, you both got the same incorrect title. You obviously both know the song but it isn’t call Cheer up Sleepy Jean.

Well done @Honeyroar. Dream a Little Dream was the Mamas and the Papas.

FlouncingBabooshka · 20/11/2020 21:01

Oops, sorry @FlouncerInDenial - missed that you’d already got that one! 🥰
