Obviously I know it will never happen, but whereas other people dream about winning the lottery, having a new car or buying the house of their dreams... I dream about being the front woman of a band headlining at glastonbury Grin

I do play in a duo with DP, but so far we've not been brave enough (or able to agree on a set list) to perform properly in public (only in front of friends/family)

I just want to be Robert Plant (but not if he's the one boffing liz jones)

My DP and kids think that I'm a saddo. And they are probably right Wink

Flame me and make me bloody grow up.

Can I be the first one to date a footballer/divorce him and go to rehab?

He would play for Scunthorpe third team. He would not pay maintanance for our kids/I would go to my mums/I would be on the Jeremy Kyle show fighting with my SIL/BIL/FIL/MIL and dog.

only if I can be the one to break down in front of Phil and Fern

With our first hefty royalties cheque, I shall buy a house with a room big enough for a private recording studio (then put a nice new fitted kitchen in it and an Aga)

alistron1 · 30/08/2011 22:12

Suncottage, you can keep your footballers. I'm going to date Jack White and make you all nervous about the formation of a new super duper super group incorporating band members drawn from the Daily Mail comments section. Our first track will be 'Too Much Too Young'

[Goes all dreamy with the lyrics - It is 'orrible being in love when you're 42 and a half, got your picture some where it gives me a laff, you are bald and fat and over the hill and you have football scarf......]

alistron1 · 30/08/2011 22:17

Suncottage, you're burned out before we've even got on the road

GreenEyesandNiceHam · 30/08/2011 22:17

I know we're not 27 anymore but one of us is actually going to have to tragically die, at the height of our success- you know that right?

Bagsie not be me.

ThePathanKhansWoman · 30/08/2011 22:17

Green yeah and we know why all surfaces had to be slanted in your new kitchen!

(heard she wanted glass worktops and straws everywhere, draw your own conclusions).

alistron1 · 30/08/2011 22:18

Pathan, not just the DVD's...during live shows your jazz hands will be behind the biggest amps in the world.

Grin suncottage - that's now stuck in my head

alistron1 · 30/08/2011 22:19

Greeneyes, sadly I think we are going to have to kill suncottage or pathan for their own good

OP posts:
GreenEyesandNiceHam · 30/08/2011 22:20

Pathan, that you know, is actual slander, it's well known that I'm a martyr to my sinuses.

giyadas · 30/08/2011 22:21

no, cos then everyone will love her more. T'is always the way

GreenEyesandNiceHam · 30/08/2011 22:23

Alistron I think you are right Sad

I'm thinking a giant poster of their face, in B&W as a backdrop to the wembley stage. And a video montage, lots of laughing, home vids, behind the scenes stuff

Suncottage · 30/08/2011 22:24

alistron Giy*

Give the newcomers a try before we burst in and wow the world!

alistron1 · 30/08/2011 22:25

If we sacrifice pathan we can make a shitload of cash from the Jazz Hands merchandise. We wouldn't need to do a third album or anything

Pathan...would you like to come to my rock star mansion, take some drugs and go in my hot tub?!!

OP posts:
ThePathanKhansWoman · 30/08/2011 22:25

RedBlanket · 30/08/2011 22:26

I'm off to heatworld.com to decide who im going to have age inappropriate affairs with to scandalise the DM. perhaps the fig one from JLS.

alistron1 · 30/08/2011 22:27

Suncottage, would you like a drink of whisky and some of these totally harmless sleeping tablets that I have?

Seriously, it's for your own good. Daniel O-fecking-Donnell????

alistron1 · 30/08/2011 22:28

Pathan, I'll spring for a travel lodge and a free CD from the Daily Mail?

OP posts:
GreenEyesandNiceHam · 30/08/2011 22:28

Aww no come on man, we're brothers. We have matching tattoos. Let them live Grin

Remember what we used to say?

'in it together, Nice Ham forever. Word to yer mum'

whomovedmychocolate · 30/08/2011 22:28

Fame is overrated

There is nothing wrong with being a 37 year old rockstar but it's hard to start from here Wink

But I wish you luck and lots of plastic surgery because apparently, that's required too
