...to want to become a roller derby girl / woman?

[Nemofish]

I wanna do something fun. Just for me.

Friend has suggested a local all-female roller derby group. I have had a look at the website and I am tempted...

But AIBU?

Should I take up cross stitch or knitting instead? I am not taking the piss, a friend of mine is a very keen knitter and she is col as fuck

What do you do for fun?

Can you remember what fun is? I am struggling...

I used to make cross stitch samplers of profanities and obscene pictures.

Similar to the ones I saw recently in a gallery on sale for £1000 apiece.

I will remember that whenever I see your name now tethersend

I WANT one of those Tethers.

I took up beekeeping Nemo

fun.......hmmmmmm..........I suppose water fights in the garden with DD don't count? Did I actually used to have hobbies???

P.S where is roller derby group? Sounds like fun!!

A mate of mine does this in Leeds (so no doubt you'll be taking each other out before long!). She loves it. Too rough for me...

I think it looks brilliant, why are you hesitant?

I have my name down to join our local roller derby team and I already have a friend that does it. Not for the fainthearted though it is a rough contact sport so you need to be hard as nails.

What is a roller derby team?

I used to play roller derby. Its lots of fun and will keep you very fit. But it is a full contact sport, you will be covered in bruises.

Ooh ooh you need to watch the film Whip It to get you in the mood. Good luck!

I'll join with you Nemofish! Looks fab, bit like rugby on wheels! Might have to be next year though as can't see roller derbying being on the list of suggested exercise routines during pregancy! boooo!

I need a roller derby name???!

Nasty Nemo? Fish Fiend?

Needmo plasters?

No that's not quite the right spirit is it?!

Yes Yes -hooray We all need roller derby names!

I want to join our local team but DH thinks i am being ridiculous.
I love roller skating though.

Mine was Anna Phylactic

Oh no! Seriously?

Eeeww. It's a bit trashy, like wrestling sort of trashy.

Sorry, but there you go.

Feel my wrath you bitch!

Apparantly its got a high propotion of lesbian/bisexual participants. DH used to find that very amusing for some reason.

All the girls I used to skate with were very gothic/emo. Dyed black/blue/purple hair, black lipstick, white foundation, ripped fishnets, lots of tattoos and piercings.

You could be like Rollergirl in Boogie Nights
