You mean you can remember that but not what's for tea?
( btw, the answer to that is usually I have already eaten it '

I’ve called Needtoknow Shiny twice this week...

midgedude · 17/02/2021 19:51

I write "yes" and then have to go back to see who I am saying yes to

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 20:02

😀 this one is for you Midge

A Salvation Army band played
And the children drank lemonade
And the mornings lasted all day
All day

😂😂 at least you've remembered that's you did that!

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 20:38

Needtoknow you should feel flattered - Brittney thinks your name is a real word! It’s the only one of the names on here she remembers. I wish she’d remember Babooshka because I still have to think how to spell it!

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 17/02/2021 20:41

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 20:44

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 20:46

It’s Life in a Northern Town by Dream Academy.

FlouncingBabooshka · 17/02/2021 20:58

I really need to post some lyrics. I have not been pulling my weight lately.

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 20:59

Correct Mrs B. ✅

(to the lyrics not agreeing with you saying you’re not pulling your weight!)

@Honeyroar

Dexter have you always been locked in the shed?
More often than I should! 😂
MNerGoneRogueAgain · 17/02/2021 21:00

If lockdown goes on much longer, I'll struggle to pull mine...
..... off the sofa

Boom tish

I'm flattered Honey 😘I don't really like my name tbh, but I can't be arsed to change it. I've got another MN one, but can't get my head round a different one.

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 21:02

Another one for Midge (in dedication only)

I’m homeward bound
Got my head turned around
(70s?)

NeedToKnow101 · 17/02/2021 21:03

But making mistakes is a part
Of life's imperfections
Born of the years
Is it so wrong to be human after all?

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 17/02/2021 21:05

How did everyone choose their names? We know about Honey's. But everyone else?

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 21:07

This ones for Needtoknow -

Don’t go trying
Some new fashion
Don’t change the colour of your hair
Mmmm

I can't remember.. I think I just needed to know something and wanted a different different user name for the question. Very utilitarian.

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 21:10

Correct ✅. Don’t go changing (your name!)
