I know her reasonably well and i get on with her quite well always have abit of achat and that,she said wasn't watching the show i said oh well .She definetly did look like her and her colleague said to me on the quiet maybe she would be offended if i said she looked like Rosemary.I felt a bit awkward and said no she's a super person and i hope she wins the show which was a bit of a white lie really i was just trying to big her up like (I felt like i got my shuffle out ) Over to you .

Everlong you've just broken one of my dreams last night.
I was watching a trailer for an Eastenders spin-off starring Susan Tully and the one who was Mark Fowler (I forget his name). Except they were in a relationship and in the spin-off he was Tucker rather than Mark Fowler.

Since Mark Fowler was her brother (I think), then it all makes total sense.

Maybe it wasn't a dream??

Have I walked into an episode of the Mighty Boosh?

I hope that Rosemary herself never reads this thread!
I think it is quite a risk to tell anyone that they look like anyone else, I think I would have to know someone really well and be pretty confident that they would take it as a compliment.
I have been told that I look like Kate Beckinsale (when younger) and also Kirsty Allsop (more recently). I certainly wasn't insulted but I remember being a bit bemused by it and wasn't sure what to say!

I felt like I got my shuffle out. I can't breathe!!

Can everyone just stop getting their shuffles out all over the place, fgs.

Telling someone that they look like someone else is just a very passive aggressive way of being an utter bitch (unless they look like Elle McPherson etc). OP you don't sound nice.
Years ago I had chemo and it made my face fat and hair fall out. I was ok about these side effects because I had greater worries - kids /death etc. one of my lowest points though was when one of the ward receptionists told me that in my hat I looked like Lisa Reilly from Emerdale. Receptionist had perfect eyebrows/ hair/ makeup etc. Bitch.

Dunno about you, but everyday I'm shuffling

EverlongLovesHerChristmasRobin · 30/11/2012 11:03
Grin

Got to admit I loathe a shuffler. You wouldn't know it because I smile sweetly but inside I'm screaming shift out of my effing way. Please.

Lol I thought this was the q thread. Oops. Oh well there is shuffling on here too. Wink
