So let us muse upon a cardigan and dwell in Elysian fields of SouthFork where the lips do tremble and the mad roam free.

And fear not the Thicko.

Evvery thread I have been on recently results in my naming people I fancied from the eighties.

Michael Douglas
Harrison Ford
Michael Brandon
Tom Selleck
Sean Penn
Alec Baldwin.

I must have been rather a forward young individual, I was only born in 1978.

Hmmm Alec Baaaaldwin

I'm only here because I saw cardigans and Dallas.

I dislike cardigans, the only useful purpose they serve is they add wieght to your stance when perturbed. As in the "grab one side and cross it over further than the other when crossing your arms".

I liked Dallas. Knots Landing is another animal altogther. Utter dirge. Ray Krebbs was a wimp. He had a pathetic bozz eyed wife who STILL managed to run rings round him.

Yy mr is wrong.
And less of the "I was only 8 " missy

ShirleyKnot · 29/06/2011 13:16

I'm the thicko in the title. Sad

Pagwatch · 29/06/2011 13:17

JR ffs JR!

GetOrf · 29/06/2011 13:18

I love cardigans. Not waterfall types, they tend to make you look fat when you are not, it is like the Kelly Osborne Conundrum.

Pagwatch · 29/06/2011 13:18

Oh, look at that ...only born in 78.

I did my a levels in 78 young lady

GetOrf · 29/06/2011 13:19

JR was cool. I found Sue Ellen annoying, thought she should just put down the gin, stop simpering about John Ross and reapply her mascara (don't tell Dittany)

Pagwatch · 29/06/2011 13:19

I have a waterfall cardigan in the basement. I am thinking of sending my shrug down to join it so they can have a good think about their style crimes

ShirleyKnot · 29/06/2011 13:20

Is there actually a blusher called Orgasm?

Pagwatch · 29/06/2011 13:20

True. And in fairness John Ross was a fucking awful child. Drink was a reasonable response.

GetOrf · 29/06/2011 13:21

Age is just a number pag, just a number

Grin

I think I am a blip in the space time continuum anyway as somehow I can reminisce about Chicory Tip on top of the pops despite my not being born when they were around.

perhaps am Benjamin Button.

Pagwatch · 29/06/2011 13:22

There is shirley. It is true.
You have to make awful embarrassed jokes when you buy it.

GetOrf · 29/06/2011 13:22

Yes Shirl, stop buying your make up dahm the market and get ye to Space NK, where they have blusher called Orgasm and eyeliner called Perineum.

GetOrf · 29/06/2011 13:23

lol pag - I have never bought that blusher, I would have to do a lean in and whisper orgasm and smile simperingly at the whippersnapper Space NK girl (who would then think I was chatting her up prob)

ShirleyKnot · 29/06/2011 13:23

"HA HA HA!!! I'll Have the Orgasm please HA HA HA! I BET EH?! HA ha ha "

Pagwatch · 29/06/2011 13:23

You have mentioned chicory tip before getorf.
You had a thing didn't you, for the lead singer. Didn't he look like a pug?

ShirleyKnot · 29/06/2011 13:24

shut up is there an eyeliner called perenium.

guyliner maybe.

Poledra · 29/06/2011 13:24

Paggy, what did you book the dead pig for? Was it porked on a double yellow?

Pagwatch · 29/06/2011 13:24

Grin perfect shirl
That is embarrassingly accurate version of how I buy it

GetOrf · 29/06/2011 13:24

Oh god yes I have probably mentioned Chicory Tip before, je suis un boring bastard Grin

Wink
Pagwatch · 29/06/2011 13:26

Grin

Yes. Illegally porked.

I have about 70 18 year old boys to feed at the end of the week. Poor piggy. Pig on a spit.

Pagwatch · 29/06/2011 13:27

Where is hully?

If she has gone we can plan gangs and elect nemisisieses..

ShirleyKnot · 29/06/2011 13:27

I went to a place lasat night that served cocktails in teacups and enamel mugs and jam jars (and I got a bit pissed because I wanted a drink in every availablke vessel)

GetOrf · 29/06/2011 13:27

Pagwatch

Are you really having 70 18 year old boys in your house?
