to stare out of kitchen window with a dreamy look on my face and a lump in my throat

This Evening radio 2 played the top 100 million selling singles and the no 1 was Candle in the wind which was Elton Johns tribute to Princess Diane
I have not heard this song for 12 yrs and it brought back many strange memories of a strange week
I remember walking through the village to my mums on the day of her funeral and it was deserted (no cars,empty shops) and who still remembers Eltons twitching eyebrow as he played the song at her funeral

YABU. Unless you knew her.

Oh dear.

Before Diana died my DH played Candle in the Wind in a piano shop on our first date and it has been our song ever since.

I didnt know her or really care about her , but the whole week was really odd

Sorry Jason, but at 'Elton's twitching eyebrow'

I do love the idea of this OP now I've realised it's a bloke!

Still though. Oh dear.

you been on the gin jason?

Ah, was she Queen Of Your Heart then, Jason?

EccentricaGallumbits
are you peeping through my window,I have just finished a rather nice G&T

Meh, I don't really remember, I was only 14! Don't like the song much either...

Didn't care for her when she was alive, don't care for her now.

I do remember my brother had been to stay and he drove home on the day of the funeral - he said he'd never had a quicker journey!

Oh didn't realise it was a jasonthunderpants thread. I'll leave before the horrendous flirting starts. I don't get it

BitofFun
No she wasnt.

14

I was on a tacky tasteful 'girly'holiday and was v drunk when I heard.

It is one of those 'what were you doing when...' moments

No flirting is allowed.If anybody starts flirting I will find their telephone number and fart down the phone at them

flirting? confused?

My brother guffs down the phone at me. I'm sure that the smell came out of the handset once...

They're just jealous of how gorgeous you are Jason... ...and Kevin...

hahahahaha

cupcakes
that could of been your breath

Seriously no one flirts with jason. You must have missed the entire thread of jason love then?

How's the pepper situation Jason? Any resolution?

My SIL went into labour on the day of Diana's funeral.

When she arrived at the hospital, a midwife told her that they were observing a two minute silence and would she like to join them in watching the funeral on tv or listen to it on the radio?

I will let you imagine her response.

Cheeky sod. I'm sure that I hadn't had my raw garlic gargle that night...

I have given up with the peppers
In hindsight I think I should of just let it go. I dont want to look foolish
or just plain sad
