Watching Glastonbury with Mother earlier, Guy Garvey comes on with Elbow. My mum KNOWS I am after him and she then goes "he IS lovely. He's more my age than yours though." I told her that since I saw him first that she could keep her grubby paws off him. Get your own fella, mum. Not on.

Going for Gold was the best daytime quiz ever.

BupcakesandCunting · 26/06/2011 22:37

Going for Gold was fucking shit.

Chain Letters with Tom o Connor. Brilliant.

Can we all get back to the point? Which is, actually, that Guy Garvey is mine, mine, mine, all miney mine. I thank you.

BupcakesandCunting · 26/06/2011 22:40

Sorry.

Mine.

He sends me subliminal messages through the radio to tell me that he loves me.

Why did Going for Gold have contestants from Denmark and Lithuania and shit?

I was only a kid, but even then I could appreciate that they were at a real disadvantage compared to Barry from Birmingham

ChaosTrulyReigns · 26/06/2011 22:41

Capital O.

Apostropheeee.

And Guy is rather nice, and tops musiciany thing, but by, jove, he doesn't half have an accent.

ratspeaker · 26/06/2011 22:41

bup in the inerests of family harmony I think neither of you should have him

pass him over here

he'll do til Jared Leto gets here Grin

Dont forget Dale's spuermarket quiz thing,

OrdinaryJo · 26/06/2011 22:42

But I looooooooooooooove him. And my mum doesn't. He says it's all a bit too Greek tragedy round yours, actually.

BupcakesandCunting · 26/06/2011 22:47

I lurve Guy's accent. Does anyone remember when Elbow did a cover if Independent Women? I am hoping that Elbow come on stage with Beyonce and do a duet of that!

OK Bups, thats it. You're not having my (very new, as of the last half hour when she came on stage) girl crush an' all. Outside now!

ChaosTrulyReigns · 26/06/2011 22:56

Hang on a rockstar-fecking moment.

I didn't say I didn't like his accent.

AnyFucker · 26/06/2011 22:58

his accent is pure Bury actually

a distinction that any self-respecting Bury dweller would draw your attention to Smile

the Gallagher brothers are Manc

Some of us have had mothers who have ended up sleeing with their boyfriends, I find your post in bad taste even if you were only joking.

I was 13 when my mum had a six month affair with my then 16 year old boyfriend, was great waking up in the mornings hearing them shagging, and my dad having to leave home.

Bad taste OP.

ChaosTrulyReigns · 26/06/2011 23:04

No it isn't Fabby.

emmanumber3 · 26/06/2011 23:06

Didn't Shaw Taylor start advertising stripy awnings after retiring from West Midlands Police?

swanker · 26/06/2011 23:07

Does she like Mandelson too?????

gerardway · 26/06/2011 23:36

rats Jared Leto is on his way ???

Unless Jared is up to his usual gimp mask/bondage sex stuff Hmm and then I will go home and cuddle up with DH.

BupcakesandCunting · 27/06/2011 08:30

Ah bugger off Fabby. You're a whiney old dullard.

Balls to Guy Garvey. I would do Adam and Joe though, in this order;

Adam
Adam
Adam
then Joe.

When I saw the thread title I thought this might have been "Natasha Giggs - wronged mother of two" finally surfacing. :o
