SCREAMS I've been mixed up/confused with honey????
That bitch.
That sonia-loving cow?
I don't bloody think so.

I'd be honoured to be mistaken for coffee. She's genuinely kind and bakes like a dream

Morning!

The one who insists he was first in the line
Is the last to remember her name

Hi all how is everyone?

midgedude · 15/05/2021 15:47

Although this is more appropriate today

Turned away from it all like a blind man

Under pressure Bowie and Queen.

Aw sorry Midge, do you have a deadline looming? Let us help with lyrics you can slip in..

I'm pottering around today. Feels like the first time in ages..

midgedude · 15/05/2021 16:00

Dd has the deadline (she's at uni) .( miles away)

I was outside, in a real shop ( so staring stressed as I don't like shopping at the best of times)

panic messages about her laptop crashing . Trying to rescue her laptop based on photos sent from her phone with steamed up glasses ....

Reader, I succeeded.... in the end

midgedude · 15/05/2021 16:00

I had the streamed up glasses not her phone !

NeedToKnow101 · 15/05/2021 16:16

I have a mental (or sometimes actual) list of songs that have occurred to me. Then need to Google to choose which lyrics to use. I copy n paste them into a word doc with the answers, then copy n paste onto the thread. Can takecan hour or so, and I didn't have time today. Will do tomorrow.
RogueMNerKnowsNoShame · 15/05/2021 18:25

Well done midge. Award yourself some mummy points (they're even more precious than song lyric points)

All ok in midge world aside from stressed children?

🍷 always good!
midgedude · 15/05/2021 18:27

All well otherwise ... indeed rather spoilt a lovely day! That's life

Dies wine really help headache though?

midgedude · 15/05/2021 18:45

All 80s

So I woke up in....
With a headache and a heartache and a handful of pills

And this one had been released many times

She’s a headache she’s an angel she’s a girl

And no one like this band

Curling tongs , Mogadons
I got a headache baby don’t take so long

And I am not sure this was a single

To your credit to the 30 faces you created
To your headache to the shape of the 1980s

You should get the theme though

midgedude · 15/05/2021 19:00

And for a slightly harder theme. It’s got two parts

Very late 70s

I came in here for a special offer
A guaranteed personality

Now every cheap hood strikes a bargain with the world
And ends up making payments on a sofa or a girl

She said hey come here daddy
I ain’t never coming back

The easy one to get you started
The ice age is coming the suns zooming in
Meltdown expected the wheat is growing thin
