Lodger has a ONS in his room

And normally it wouldn’t bother me but he’s already bubbled with his TA at work. I knew something was a miss when I got up at 530 for work and one of the stray cats from out side was asleep on my kitchen chair! Normally he’s so good he lets me know if someone’s staying and he hasn’t had anyone over since this lockdown. Should I say anything I can hear them having a good time or should I just turn the radio up and get ready for work?😃

[quote Ninkanink]@Orchidflower1 I actually wasn’t being nasty or sarcastic! And don’t want you to be upset.

Flowers We’ve all got our own perspective on wider issues and yours is just as valid as anyone else’s. But OP hadn’t done anything wrong either.[/quote]
Thank you @Ninkanink that means a lot. 💐

@MiaMc

Is the cat some sort of pimp?

@Orchidflower1 being a nurse doesn’t mean that the op can’t have a sense of humour. In fact if anything we are reliant on a laugh at the moment.

Just because op hasn’t got up, spotted that someone is in with her lodger and called the police or banged on the door to confront them doesn’t mean she’s lying about her job.

We are all busy, we are all tired. A little light relief really helps! Maybe she’s going to speak to him later, maybe she will pick her battles. You don’t know.

I don’t think people are friends with op in rl, we are just enjoying the humour.

Ps, Don’t play the wounded party after calling op a C!ts^ Hmm

In the words and styling of Brick in Anchorman "LOUD NOISES!"

Felt like this level of madness needed a bit of Brick through into it

@sugarhockeyicedtea brick is my hero

Margotshypotheticaldog · 31/01/2021 14:59

I wouldn't have noticed the cat either, had I gone home with your lodger OP
God, those were the fucking days.... 🥺

Genuine question. Did we ever get to the bottom of how the stray cat meant there was a ONS?

It doesn't, silly. It means a prostitute is somewhere in the house, according to a previous poster! Who knew, eh?!
ShalomToYouJackie · 31/01/2021 19:52

@chunkymenrock I believe OP said it meant that the door to the house had been opened

EachandEveryone · 31/01/2021 19:53

I’m leaving work now (incase soneone is clocking me in and out) I don’t know if I’m looking forward to catching up or not!

@sugarhockeyicedtea ‘brick is dead!’ Grin I have to watch it now. I think he’s my dream man.

cheeseybean · 31/01/2021 20:01

Your lodger is so handsome

EachandEveryone · 31/01/2021 21:24

That’s the bloke from Greys Anatomy but yes my lodger is very good looking and very young😃

There are no lights on despite me falling through the door and banging about looking for the cat food and running back out again I think he’s in a deep slumber. My girl is not impressed with all the stranger in and out both feline and human. Who knows what she’s seen today? The black cat doesn’t appear to have left his box all day.

I’ve shoved the wine into the freezer. I need one reading some of these replies🙄 honestly, can’t we have a laugh anymore? I never made any of it up and I loved reading the funny bits on my break. Some people need to lighten up. Cheers!

Cheers! Your cat is gorgeous. The stranger is a lovely one too. Maybe keep it?
The lodger is asleep?

Vinorosso74 · 31/01/2021 21:29

Oh my is that Dolly? Hope her and Daphne are ok with the interlopers whether human or feline.

Frownette · 31/01/2021 21:29

The cat is still there???

Have you spoken to lodger yet?

EachandEveryone · 31/01/2021 21:35

Yes I think so it’s hard to tell though because he always has head phones on. Either the pod things that make you look abit daft or the big old school ones which are my style too. He listens to a comedy I can’t remember the name of it but it sounds like family guy (it isn’t) I made him listen to Dear Joan and Jericha whilst I was making the Xmas Dinner bless him it must’ve been like watching shagging on telly with your parents I didn’t realise it would be so graphic😃 very funny though,

I can’t keep him, I don’t mind feeding him and I would never see him go cold though.

Frownette · 31/01/2021 21:49

That is one very suave and self assured dapper gentleman. We need a pic of lodger too so we can make complimentary comments Grin

Enjoy the wine after a hectic day. Can't believe some thought you were a troll, I remember your lodger dilemmas!

JayAlfredPrufrock · 31/01/2021 21:57

Happy the thread is back

Where you AtYourCervix previously?

I remember she had stray cats.

He looks like a happy soul :)

So you have acquired one black cat, one bottle of wine and one lodger's amore over the past 24 hours. Good going.

Ninkanink · 31/01/2021 22:10

Oh no don’t do that! I hope you’ve asked him... (not suggesting you wouldn’t have done so, really, just checking to be on the safe side)

EachandEveryone · 31/01/2021 22:19

He has emerged and I have directed him but I guess I can ask for it to go. He is very happy and lovely I have so many young nurses at work I want to set him up with but that ship has sailed now it seems 😄

Yes that’s your Dolly she always looks fab in the cold weather. Daphne is fine but does not like the interlopers. She’s as pretty as ever
