Oops. Missed honey had got it as well.

I’m rubbish tonight 😳

We’re used to it
NeedToKnow101 · 16/02/2021 21:25

No-one got this...

Baby, I know you're wondering
Why I won't go over to your place
'Cause I'm not to sure about how you feel
So I'd rather go at my own place
80s dance classic

I can remember when DS was 5 him picking up my Bacardi breezed and asking if it was his new pop ! Luckily I think he only has a sip

Honeyroar · 16/02/2021 21:26

It’s too late Needtoknow, the Mumsnet vipers have already reported you to social services.

My mum gave me a cigarette when I was 7 to put me off smoking. And it worked!

@shinynewapple21

I'm standing in the rain Drenched and soaked with pain Tired of short time benefits And being exposed to the elements I'm homeward bound Got my head turned around 80s
Zippin up my boots, Going back to my roots, yeah

Can't remember who by though!

NeedToKnow101 · 16/02/2021 21:28

NeedToKnow101 · 16/02/2021 21:29

Honeyroar · 16/02/2021 21:30

NeedToKnow101 · 16/02/2021 21:30

Who had pancakes tonight then? And sweet or savoury?

Honeyroar · 16/02/2021 21:31

Fleamaker123 · 16/02/2021 21:32

Was it Odyssey? I can't remember.. I think it was originally 70's and then reappeared in the 80's
