Perhaps I am...but where are they now?

Come hither lamented playmates and fill my heart with joy and laughter.

I actually wrote that song but it was nicked off me.

Fuckers.

BoF, I scroll down thinking made up bullshit, attention seeking, don't know, don't care, don't believe it, oh god not this again.

It's depressing.

HoneyDragon · 19/06/2014 17:54

I do cheer up immensely when you post Bof, but I know what you mean

If you want to lure Showy, try starting a thread about WWII defences, with this picture as bait.

She will not be able to resist....

Ooh, is that the secret, Rusty? What is our position on disused thingy towers then?

RustyBear · 19/06/2014 18:04

"What is our position on disused thingy towers?"

Very uncomfortable, I would think.

But to Showy, they are things of beauty.

Hi hully, 'tis Jamie here

Hullygully · 19/06/2014 18:08

Jamie! The very devil!

I too am subject to the don't care, don't care, don't cares.

But there did used to be the odd little laugh lurking amongst them, back when we were allowed to MAKE STUFF UP

Am I olde enough for ye oldene Netters of Mumme? I miss you more than you miss me, Hully, of that I am sure.

NewtRipley · 19/06/2014 18:11

I can't commit to the ball but I wanted to say hello. It would have been a quiche Huzzah1 and then out again, leaving the narrative all gone to cock

GarlicJuneBlooms · 19/06/2014 18:11

That was going to have scansion & ting, but the cat came and bit my leg.

NewtRipley · 19/06/2014 18:11

quiche???? I meant to type "quick" but that came out by accident. Ironic

NewtRipley · 19/06/2014 18:11

Hullygully · 19/06/2014 18:12

Late to the thread; but Hi, Hully!

NewtRipley · 19/06/2014 18:13

Have you been away hully?

And I forgot to say Hi to everyone else

Blatherskite · 19/06/2014 18:14

I decamped to Twitter and then just, well, decamped.

Len will know who I am though.

Hullygully · 19/06/2014 18:14

Evening all

Fings ain't wot it used to be, that's for sure

NewtRipley · 19/06/2014 18:15

I can't be doing with twitter. Too verbose.

Hullygully · 19/06/2014 18:15

I tried that twitter but I can't get the hang of it. Is everyone I miss on there

I don't do FB and then I don't get invited to things, or see people's pictures of their clematis, or their maaarvelous Barcelona Hotel room. I need to get with the programme

I too remember the days when making stuff up was just having a laugh and not being a troll.

I managed to miss the while flouncing of moldies by moving house and not having internet for a couple of weeks. Can you imagine what it was like to come back and find that the moldies had gone?

Like coming back from holiday to find that someone broke into your house and Lawrence Llewelyn Bowened it without your permission.
