@Honeyroar

Yes a pyjama party! Bring it on! Elasticated waists all round!

I think I might actually have run out of Baileys by Saturday.

Do we need to put on an appeal, honey? One of those charity ads on daytime TV?
Honeyroar · 25/01/2021 20:26

(for pyjamaless Rogue)

Honeyroar · 25/01/2021 20:28

I was wondering if the local food bank would have any?

I’m not actually sure whether we’re appealing for pyjamas for you or Baileys?

MNerGoneRogue · 25/01/2021 20:33

This is honey. This lonely sad woman lives 30 miles away from a bottle of fresh baileys
every day, sometimes twice or three times she has to make this walk in inadequate footwear just to replenish supplies to support her family
can you help? £5 would buy her liqueur chocolates
£10 would keep her happy til lunchtime
£30 and she can stop chewing the furniture in desperation
Text #lush to ....
Please give what you can to help women like honey. And thank you

Oh god, someone throw the big pants down from wobbling heights. (who is at the top nowadays?)
Her Pantriness. She's not about very often though, so needtoknow sneaks in

I HATE pyjamas shudders
Honeyroar · 25/01/2021 20:35

Apparently Needtoknow is extremely scared of heights nowadays. Had to give up her window cleaning round and everything..

Honeyroar · 25/01/2021 20:36

I hate pyjamas too if I’m honest. I might just come in a duvet.

MNerGoneRogue · 25/01/2021 20:37

Yeah, and no one's taking the pants off her remember last time!!!!

CoffeeBeansGalore · 25/01/2021 20:37

Well what have you got that's comfortable? (And don't say the dog curled up on the sofa)

We can snuggle in together honey. You can't be any worse than my dog

I'm afraid you cannot do a Coco Chanel & just wear a dab of perfume & a smile!

Honeyroar · 25/01/2021 20:45

We’re sorted. We’re sharing a duvet and three dogs between us. Très glam. Who needs No 5?

NeedToKnow101 · 25/01/2021 20:50

I've got my electric blanket and a ladder-free, non-bunk bed, so I'm sorted.

Honey, I'll wring out my Baileys-soaked rug and DM you whatever it produces.

CoffeeBeansGalore · 25/01/2021 20:51

Put a nice brushed cotton duvet cover on it & you are sorted 😊

You can wear them both, just not Only. Didn't you have a onesie last time?

And when blow by blow
The passion dies
Sweet little death
Just have been lies
(80s)

Honeyroar · 25/01/2021 20:58

They put a hot wire to my head
Cos of the things I did and said

Is that When love breaks down by Prefab Sprout? Wild guess..

Honeyroar · 25/01/2021 21:00

You walked into the room
I just had to laugh
The face you wore was cool
You were a photograph
(80s)

Honeyroar · 25/01/2021 21:00

No Needtoknow not that one.

And a mini-fridge next to me..
Honeyroar · 25/01/2021 21:05

I found me a place to live
I got it the hard way
A permanent address to give
I got it for always
Nobody can tear me loose
They tell me there’s no escape
(80s)

This and the last one are songs I loved but had forgotten about.
