Night all.

I don't think anyone got my supergrass one, did they?

shinynewapple21 · 16/02/2021 23:32

Night all 😘

FlouncingBabooshka · 16/02/2021 23:33

@MNerGoneRogueAgain well, I tried to talk to H but as soon as your name was mentioned he went quite pale and locked himself in the bathroom. He’s in there still making pitiful whimpering noises.

DH is trying to lure him out with a combination of comforting words and a left-over banana pancake but I’m not holding out a lot of hope.

Nope. Nor mine:

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI
Sitting in a nest of bad men
Whiskey bottles piling high

Morning Smile

Dexter - that song is something about a long tall woman in a black dress , don't know if that's the title and don't know who sang it!

dexterslockedintheshedagain · 17/02/2021 11:15

Morning Shiny!
Yes, long Cool Woman in a black dress - The Hollies.
Another one from my running list!

This feeling that remains

Afternoon all

You got to move it up
And use it like a screwball would
You got to pack it up
Work it like a new boy should

Carved by another's hand

Sliding into the thread for some peace and quite - we have builders here fixing the roof and rebuilding a chimney breast. The banging is loud and I feel ancient as I don't recognise any of the music they have been playing.

Yes AJumpedUpPantryBoy 👍

That sounds like dusty work 😬
I know what you mean about not recognising music, although I like some of it, just don't know who it's by! And I'm about 5 years behind!

A mini theme... fingers crossed for me next Wednesday

Are you ready for the time of your life
Time to stand up and fight

Bite your lip
And take a trip

And if it all goes wrong please be ready with

Guess there are times when we all need to share a little pain

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 17/02/2021 15:09

Dusty and noisy.
The only good thing is it gives me a legitimate excuse not to clean as there is dust everywhere and furniture is all piled into one room.
They are also moving a wall in the kitchen (don't laugh but they are removing a pantry and incorporating it into the main kitchen) so I can't really cook - every cloud!
Might need to rename myself AJumpedUpPantrylessBoy
