For the lonely faces, in those empty spaces
For the unloved and the denied
For the little wheels turning bigger deals
For all the dreams that bloomed and those that died

Mother nature don't draw straight lines
We're broken moulds in a grand design
We look a mess but we're doing fine
We're card carrying lifelong members of
The Union of different kinds

All welcome we are Vanilla who makes cakes
Toad who is meme champion
Better who is advisory
Portia who has a famous boyf
AGL who is young
Jess well I dunno
Ruby Being and anyone I've forgotten

Exactly, toad. Plus, won't they get fed up of me turning up every day a lot?

You'll be the first one they think of when a property comes up :)

If they DO get fed up (who could ever get fed up of seeing you anyway?), they know what to do - FIND YOU A PLACE!

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 23/08/2016 11:25

being. Have to nip to the shop now....

toadgirl · 23/08/2016 11:33

The Co-op, Jess?

Mycatsabastard · 23/08/2016 11:39

Hope you find somewhere soon AGL

Morning all

I have done nothing today, nothing. Except drive teen to work. DD is still in her pjs on her laptop upstairs. She's refusing to get dressed. The sun is shining and I feel we should be out doing something. We may go out later.

I bought soup for my cats yesterday. Yes, it's a thing. Cat soup :o Girl cat 1 loves it despite it looking like sick in a bowl.

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 23/08/2016 11:40

toad. Naturally. Unless grubby old guy delightful gentleman is perched outside, in which case it will have to be Premier, and I find their biscuit selection to be lacking.

PortiaCastis · 23/08/2016 11:45

Quick break so I'm checking up on you lot
Gran has argued sith the waste disposal operatives for not putting hdr wheelid bin in the corrdct place, ans so felt the need to call me.
I'm sincerely hoping tother thread gets into another scon fight so I can issue my utter words of wisdom again.

Scons and CORNISH clotted cream are luvverly

AGL keep hassling the estate agents you'll get on their wick and a property will be found

Still sorting out the tacky gifts shops accounts. Funny how they took £120 on a Sunday in a place packed with tourists Hmm

Look who was filming at Porthcurno.

Wow, Portia you are keeping busy! You and your Gran are sorting people out right, left and centre Grin Keep up the good work!

Hopefully, you'll still have time/energy for AT later on Wink

Aw, Jess have a heart!

He only wants to dunk his chocolate fingers into your cup and hob(k)nob with you Wink

AverageGayLad · 23/08/2016 12:13

The property has gone

toadgirl · 23/08/2016 12:17

Oh, AGL!

We are here for you. Keep on trying.

I was GUTTED before I got the house I'm in now about a property I wanted that disappeared from under me (sure estate agent was a bit dodgy) but anyway, even though the house I'm in now cost more, I wouldn't swap places now for anything. I am glad I didn't get the first property although at the time it was like the end of the world.

I am sure you'll get something later and you'll see why you had to wait and it will be better than the one you just missed out on.

Bettercallsaul1 · 23/08/2016 12:24

cats - Are you Aquarius?

Bettercallsaul1 · 23/08/2016 12:25

I must keep up with the changing star signs on this thread.

Bettercallsaul1 · 23/08/2016 12:30

I feel that the success of all of us is somehow bound up in the combination of star signs.

AverageGayLad · 23/08/2016 12:37

Thanks mum :(

Better I was born on the Pisces/Aries cusp if that makes any difference?

toadgirl · 23/08/2016 12:45

We WILL be celebrating soon with you, AGL - I just know it!

Better, I'm a Sagittarius.

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 23/08/2016 13:02

toad. I suppose he did say I'm 'gorgeous', and nobody ever says that to me, ever, ever.

(Ever)

But he then also shouted to a random passer-by 'She's gorgeous, she is' - said passer-by did a Confused face which sort of ruined the moment.

Bettercallsaul1 · 23/08/2016 13:07

You're a Sagittarius, Being? I thought you were Libra! I'm going to start a spreadsheet... quite seriously

Bettercallsaul1 · 23/08/2016 13:08

That is useful information, AGL.

toadgirl · 23/08/2016 13:09

Oooh, he sounds a flirtatious one, Jess but I am sure if he felt more secure in your affections, he would cease to notice the existence of any other females.

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 23/08/2016 13:10

better. I know Portia and I are Librans (it figures; well-balanced with an appreciation of the beautiful things in life) but I thought there was at least one, possibly two more....

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 23/08/2016 13:12

toad No, he said it about me....to a guy....who did the Confused thing. Which made me Sad.

Bettercallsaul1 · 23/08/2016 13:13

There are, there are, Jess - at least one more and possibly two. I will find them out and enter them on aforementioned spreadsheet forthwith.

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 23/08/2016 13:18

Am I the only sad fucker over-involved one individual who is actually keen for better to do this spreadsheet and post it?
