[quote NeedToKnow101]@MNerGoneRogueAgain - after seeing your version of the numbered list and a zillion other eccentricities , I wonder if you have ODD, aka Oppositional Defiance Disorder.

(Please don't reply with FOD).[/quote]
I wondered if anyone had noticed or if you were all stoically ignoring it.

I haven’t stopped giggling yet.

Love the spring photos Rogue, by the way.

Pantry think of a herb...(for your singer)

Too late, pantry. Needtoknow swooped in and swiped the point.

NeedToKnow101 · 20/02/2021 19:51

Is Traces worth watching?

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 20/02/2021 19:52

Too hard to handle

DJ says black crows and Otis reding

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 20/02/2021 19:55

DJ????

Honeyroar · 20/02/2021 19:56

When I was cabin crew we used to fly with different crews all the time. Before each flight we had a briefing and met each other. There was an in charge crew member called Mickey who used that song as an ice breaker- he’d say the first person to name the singer for that song would be bought a drink in the hotel bar when we arrived. Naturally that name is ingrained in my memory..!

midgedude · 20/02/2021 19:56

Britney ?

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 20/02/2021 19:57

And yet you failed to score, honey

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 20/02/2021 19:58

Midge, are you trying to tell us your DH supplied the answer. finger poised above delete button

Honeyroar · 20/02/2021 19:58

I noticed your numbers, but thought the other numbers must’ve been guessed earlier!🤣

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 20/02/2021 20:00

Nope, just went a bit... rogue. For my own amusement, and to annoy needtoknow and coffee

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 20/02/2021 20:02

Next line on the ungot no 4 (which coffee reaaaaaally nearly knows) is

You’ve such amazing grace

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 20/02/2021 20:04

The 3rd and 6th lines in song no 1 sort of stand alone.
All the other lines are sung by several voices, but those two are sung alone.

midgedude · 20/02/2021 20:04

I wouldn't say supplied the answer more launches into a sudden gush of praise for the black crows as I was typing in my usual vocal manner . He has pinpointed the likely crate.... ..something like 1 in 4 of our boxes are cds ?!?

MNerGoneRogueAgain · 20/02/2021 20:13

I will be kind midge as you are in pain and have been working very hard.

I will just dock 1/2 your points.

But don’t tell the others or they’ll all want special treatment and it ain’t happening

shinynewapple21 · 20/02/2021 20:15

Number 4 is show me heaven Maria McKee
