C'mon Honey .. 2 is up for grabs and I know you know it...
RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 17/04/2021 21:06

Oh! Of course. Sade sang it too. Yes.

I have older cousins and one of them had the original and used to play it a lot when I was a kid, so hence me thinking of that version.
I know she had a beautiful voice, but I found sade imminently forgettable.
Sorry

NeedToKnow101 · 17/04/2021 21:08

Yeah I agree Sade is not the most exciting singer, although she has a space in my 80s loving heart. I generally love that song though.

Honeyroar · 17/04/2021 21:12

Ooh I love a bit of Sade! Nice to see you back to type. 😘

Can’t think that I know no 2. 🤷🏽

CoffeeBeansGalore · 17/04/2021 21:52

Agree with you Rogue. Always thought Sade was awful. Dh had a cassette of hers in the car (remember those? 😄). Absolutely hated it. Thought all the songs sounded the same.

Ok 80s throwback rant over. As you were 😊

Both 80s 🤪🤪

  1. Coast to coast, LA to Chicago, western male
Across the north and south, to Key Largo, love for sale
  1. Touching the very part of me, it's making my soul sing
Tearing the very heart of me, I'm crying out for more

That's a bit vicious by your gentle standards, coffee! I totally approve.

Please accept a bonus point

🤪 I'm sure Rogue is in far too good a mood to be bothered by a point-giving or two.. ...

WHAAAAT?????

needtoknow, we've discussed this before.

They can have the points. They're coming from your total.
And for every point, I'm removing an extra point from your score.

And giving it to our poor honey, so you can't complain because she's having a bad time.

@Honeyroar

Evening all. Pleased to say today was the first day that it was vaguely enjoyable. The weekend girls were working, so there were five of us, whereas we’ve struggled all week with three. Plus the little kitchen girl they were going to let go has been deemed acceptable. I still can’t wait to leave, but I don’t feel like crying today! AND YOU LOT ARE SO LOVELY. WISH I COULD GIVE YOU ALL A HUG. THANKS FOR YOUR CARE, YOU’VE BEEN AWESOME. THE BEST BUNCH OF CYBER FRIENDS ANYONE COULD WANT.xxxxx😘😘😘😘
Good to hear about the extra staff on @Honeyroar, not long for you now 🙂😘
CarnageAtTheStGeorgesFete · 18/04/2021 07:51

@Honeyroar

Right. Mines end of June. Anyone else want to share theirs?
Mid Jan for me, rubbish time to have a birthday ....🙄
CarnageAtTheStGeorgesFete · 18/04/2021 08:02

Good morning all 👋🙂 btw, just flicking through.

The home button on my iPad doesn’t work every now and again, not sure if it’s the button itself, or the fact I use essential and carrier oils now and I wonder if some oil has got inside the button somewhere and built up, even though I clean it regularly.

But anyway it’s working ok today , so hope you are all well.
Mr Carnage is painting the bedroom today, so I’m keeping out of the way, but with brew duties and food making in between.

Any lyrics will be welcome here to keep me sane.... and out of the way 😂😂

midgedude · 18/04/2021 08:27

You love nature don't you
You're alright with me
You just need a little company
You're alright with me

extra points to whoever guesses the link to the previous post

Double if it's guessed before I forget it

midgedude · 18/04/2021 08:30

Well if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
