Correct Rogue with Blondie and Dreaming; Google said it was from a 1979 album but I thought the single may have been the year after . I might be wrong though .

Yes Pantry the OMD song is Locomotion.

Their songs do tend to merge together when you are trying to remember lyrics .

I was thinking about our honey-pie at work today. And thinking just how well she did yesterday.

How she's taught herself to bake and then used it to raise money for causes she believes in.

And how fabulous that photo looked.

And I was thinking how I feel as proud of her as I would if one of my RL friends did something similar (not that mine would ever get their lazy arses in gear) and thinking how you all feel so close.

And that made me rwalize that what honey achieved yesterday, she actually did for all of us. We were all rooting for her and cheering her on. It's almost as good as if we were actually there.

Her achievement is actually an achievement for all of us.
Go us!!!!

Are you trying to give yourself points on the back of honeys bake?

Interested in this thread?

Btw, I am now pretty sure that the 4000 miles one is not in my collection

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 22/03/2021 20:38

No, I'm merely saying if points WERE to be awarded for honey's efforts, we should all get a few for being supportive.

And I would hope it isn't, midge, its a god-awful song. Really, really bad

Fleamaker123 · 22/03/2021 21:27

Aw Rogue ❤️ well said, it's funny I do feel like I know you all too 🤣

midgedude · 22/03/2021 21:30

I didn't want to say that it was giving off naff vibes in case I insulted anyone

CoffeeBeansGalore · 22/03/2021 21:53

Nicely said Rogue.

sprinkles points around like confetti

(I'm sure all of you can trust I'll make sure honey gets the most. Kinda)

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 23/03/2021 17:23

Well said Rogue - and well done Honey. what an achievement

Honeyroar · 23/03/2021 20:15

Aww Rogue, I read that when I just came out from having my Covid jab and I actually welled up!

Sorry I’ve been a bit quiet - spent half of last week cooking and the week before doing a lot of research/prep into the horse trailer conversion and doing the online “exams”needed. We went to view a couple of trailers that were being converted the week before and they were gorgeous. So, drumroll, we are going to have a go! I’m ringing tomorrow to book my trailer in. Won’t be until June, but that’s fine by me, I don’t want to let the café owners down - they’ll have time to find their feet after lockdown and then find someone else..

This is the one we looked at. It was so cute!

Wow that looks fantastic Honeyroar, very exciting! Good for you 👍

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 23/03/2021 21:23

Oh honey!!!!

How amazing.

Well done for changing your life! That trailer looks fab. Good luck 🤞🤞🍀

When all this finally ends, I'll come and buy a cake.

So pleased for you.

I got my jab too.

Honeyroar · 23/03/2021 21:29

When all this finally ends we’ll fill it up with Prosecco and all meet up somewhere!

@Honeyroar

Evening all! We had a great day. Very busy. I’m knackered! But we raised over £600. 🎉🎉🥂. Now sat in front of the fire with a Baileys hot chocolate (because I’ve made loads of them for everyone else today!!)xx
Sorry, just seen this but wow, well done @Honeyroar 💐 👏 👏 xx

@RogueMNerKnowsNoShame

Oh my darling Oh my pretty lady

Golden star that leads to paradise
Like a river's running to the ocean
I'll come back to you four thousand miles

Here I stand
Head in hand
Lonely like a stranger on the shore
I can't stand this feeling anymore
Day by day
This world's all grey
And if dreams were eagles I would fly

Oh my darling Oh my pretty lady

Golden star that leads to paradise
Like a river's running to the ocean
I'll come back to you four thousand miles

Your horse box cafe will be so cool Honey!! How exciting!
And Honey Horse Box Cafe on tour... 😍❤️

Honeyroar · 23/03/2021 21:51

🤣 It’d better be!

Just need ideas for a name...

Thought you'd never ask! The Pegasus Cafe gallops into mind. What do you want? Classy, cosy, punny? Honeyroar's sounds lovely actually.

NeedToKnow101 · 23/03/2021 21:54

But then you'd have to get some bees, and maybe a lion too Grin

Honeyroar · 23/03/2021 22:01

Something cute/authentic/horsey.

Honeyroar · 23/03/2021 22:02

The husband already wants bees. Don’t give him an excuse!

AJumpedUpPantryBoy · 23/03/2021 22:21

Honey, that is stunning.

You could call it The Cool Box Grin
