I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee clouds in my coffee

midgedude · 17/02/2021 22:22

Are you really vain coffee?

shinynewapple21 · 17/02/2021 22:25

Is anyone else doing anything for Lent?

I've been hard heartedly trying to eat better (and less) . Figured it was a good time to do it properly .

ginandbearit · 17/02/2021 22:26

Ooh sorry .80 s.. .cool uk band ..mentioned recently..😉

CoffeeBeansGalore · 17/02/2021 22:30

Correct Shiny 👍☺. That's who I was thinking of (wrongly) for the Elkie Brooks one.

@midgedude No, far from it 😄!

I'll open my heart
And show you inside
My love has no pride
I feel with you I've got nothing to hide

midgedude · 17/02/2021 22:34

You don't come across that way @CoffeeBeansGalore

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 22:35

@ginandbearit it’s Level42 Leaving me now. One of my favourite songs.💕

CoffeeBeansGalore · 17/02/2021 22:36

@midgedude I come across as vain? Or not? Cripes I hope not!

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 22:38

Sorry I never said hello Ginandbearit!

Shiny I’m thinking of giving up sugar for lent (but I’m eating mini eggs as I type!). Not particularly for lent, but in general because I am piling on weight and was enormous already! I did it a few years ago and it did me so much good!

ginandbearit · 17/02/2021 22:40

Honeyroar yeah thats the one ...haunting ...they have some great lyrics ..Level 42 , love em 😉

Honeyroar · 17/02/2021 22:44

I love them too.

midgedude · 17/02/2021 22:46

No ! Coffee no!
I'll stop now , too much wine ) it doesn't take much )

CoffeeBeansGalore · 17/02/2021 22:46

Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
