@RogueMNerKnowsNoShame

It hasn't gone unnoticed flea and honey
😂😂 Yeah we asked for that one
NeedToKnow101 · 11/04/2021 11:47

Morning lovelies!! Hope you're firing on all cylinders today Honey and Flea...

I'll post a few lyrics before I get on with my day..

Hey Rogue.. when's your birthday? I think it's coming up soon? Maybe Coffee can tell us, with her psychic powers..

CoffeeBeansGalore · 11/04/2021 11:59

Morning all

@NeedToKnow101 😄😄😄. I have a friend with a birthday on the 14th. Wouldn't it be a coincidence if Rogue was the same!

... theme inspired by Honey and Flea's convo last night...

You're hiding from feelings, searching for more
Sharing and hoping, untouched for so long
Our lives still change from the way that we were
And now, I'll tell you something I think you should know
80s

I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly
Went to her house and bust her out, I had to leave real early
These girls are really sleazy, all they just say is please me
Or spend some time and rock a rhyme, I said "It's not that easy"
80s

Ev'ry day I work so hard bringin' home my hard-earned pay.
Try to love you baby, but you push me away.
Don't know where you're goin', I don't know just where you've been;
Sweet little baby, I want you again.
60s

Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me, so you can see
70s

Contempt in your eyes when I turn to kiss his lips
Broken I lie, all my feelings denied, blood on your fist
80s

And one for you all, not in the theme.. (cheesy)

Don't go changing to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
70s

Don't go changing to try and please me

I love you just the way you are. Male solo, not sure who

(Love the theme!)
And the last one is Just the way you are by Billy Joel

Mere coincidence? Or more proof of you being psychic? let's wait and see... Grin
NeedToKnow101 · 11/04/2021 12:39

Correct Coffee and Honey - Joint effort.

And correct Honey for Marvin Gaye and Bronski Beat

Honeyroar · 11/04/2021 13:32

Ooh big day on weds then. My back to work day and a birthday??

CarnageAtTheStGeorgesFete · 11/04/2021 14:26

Good afternoon all 😎

Can’t believe the change in the weather in the last 24 hours, sun, snow, sun. What’s happening??

Sorry I’ve not been on, I’m having problems with my IPad.
I’m using my phone currently, but it’s a small screen for poor eyesight 👀
I keep on looking (or should I say squinting, which is not very becoming 😂), but might not be able to answer.
Hope you’re all enjoying the rest of your weekend 😘😘

CoffeeBeansGalore · 11/04/2021 14:32

@AJumpedUpPantryBoy regarding your migraines. Sympathies, fellow sufferer here. My gp recommended high dose vitamin B supplement daily (all the Bs). It has helped reduced frequency and severity of mine. Can you take aspirin? If yes, again my gp recommended taking 3 (900mg) as soon as you can when feeling one coming on (I then go to bed asap).

I'll try anything - will definitely add Vit B to my tablet regime.
I'd forgotten how debilitating they can be - I find if I can take painkillers quickly and get to bed they don't last as long but sometimes its just too late.

I used to take Aspro and they were amazing but bow you can't get them in the UK. Shame Midge isn't really in Australia as if she was I'd be begging her to ship me some Grin

CoffeeBeansGalore · 11/04/2021 16:42

@AJumpedUpPantryBoy Go onto eBay & look for Lindens Super B Complex. The doses are a lot higher than the standard ones available in multivitamins. But it works for me.

The first one is confusion by New Order

RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 11/04/2021 17:02

great new name, Carnage.

I was going to ask about birthdays. I am a mid-April. But I seemed to think when we were talking about it, there were a couple of others with April birthdays too.

Who else? Fess up!
