Coming down slowly from the holiday fun ... aided by the Christmas rum for a soft landing . Normal service soon

Ooh, is that the ginger one Honey? Quite fancy trying that.

I’m having a bit of a weird old time at the moment - hence not being around on the thread much. Will try to come up with a little bundle of lyrics for tomorrow.

Night all 😘

Morning all. Happy 1st January. (I am doing dry January, so today must be the first).

What have I missed?

Your addition to the chocolate baileys sounds delicious, coffee. Although possibly not especially slimming!
There was a recipe on here once for making baileys at home. I think it was a Jamie Oliver one. I was going to have a go, but then I decided I didn't dare... I think baileys needs to be just for Christmas, or I'd be in a permanent drunken stupor!

He used to do surgery

You've changed the locks three times

Is Just.

Ordered delivery takeaway at half-7, I just went to pick it up after almost two-and-a-half hours of bullshit from their franchised delivery company. I have lyrics to drink and beer to guess ffs!

Both correct, but all points wiped due to a family member helping

A potential sideline for our Honeyroar?

🤣 I actually know a few people that have sold their manky old cabin shoes on eBay. Apparently the older they are the more they go for, especially if you throw in a pair of tights! I’ve not thrown my old shoes away yet..!!

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 03/01/2021 12:06

🤢

Keep it in mind in case the coffee shop goes tits up, honey.

Fleamaker123 · 03/01/2021 12:55

The mind boggles 😮

NeedToKnow101 · 03/01/2021 14:37

HmmGrinXmas Shock.. That could be your Bailey's fund Honey!

😂😂 how do they prove their cabin shoe 'provenance? Can I just chuck my old shoes on eBay and say I'm cabin crew? Looking for a side hustle...
NeedToKnow101 · 03/01/2021 14:40

Wonder how long we can go in for without putting any lyrics up? First one to break loses all their points Grin

Honeyroar · 03/01/2021 14:47

Yes just chuck your old shoes on eBay - type in used cabin shoes and watch how many come up!

Lol, have we posted any lyrics this year??

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 03/01/2021 15:34

I'm not sure i have, but the AATA one no one got was killer in the home. I think it was the last song on the album

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 03/01/2021 15:40

I'm sure your feet are delightful and sexy, honey, but I completely don't 'get' foot fetishists!
And not quite sure how wearing them at height makes a difference.
But, heigh... The woman on that thread got 200 quid, so if times get tough ...

Maybe the rest of us can flog our knackered old shoes by advertising them as "worn when on a thread with someone who was formally an air hostess". Maybe not worth the full 200, but might add on a few quid?

NeedToKnow101 · 03/01/2021 15:43

We can see if we slip lyrics and songs in surreptitiously instead for a bit, to mix it up for the New Year. I actually can't think of an example as my brain seems to have atrophied, but once we get into the groove I'm sure it will be easy, like Sunday morning. 🤪

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 03/01/2021 16:07

Hmm. See what you did there, needtoknow, I'm aware what you're thinking.
Confusion? It's something I wouldn't do.
Oh the games people play now, every night and every day now.

CoffeeBeansGalore · 03/01/2021 17:21

You're asking us to be clever after the fog of Christmas & New Year! I like the way you do what you're doing.

Check out the size of my boy's paw 🤣.

Aw @CoffeeBeansGalore - he's a big'gun! - actually maybe my idea was too taxing, we should let it fade to grey.

Maybe it's not bitcoin that's the future... it's the market in air hostess shoes (real or fake)?! This time next year Rodney, we could be millionaires 💥

NeedToKnow101.. I think I'm in the advanced stages now of lyric addition, I'm matching up song lyrics to my daily activities 🤣 But it's still my favourite waste of time

Fleamaker123 · 03/01/2021 18:04

Wow Coffee 😍

CoffeeBeansGalore · 03/01/2021 18:48
