To start the TENTH thread that nobody responds to

Vanilla has given me the great honour of starting the TENTH thread that absolutely no-one responds to. No-one at all. We have not racked up 9,000 previous posts talking about absolutely nothing.

Along the way we've become great friends. Newcomers are always welcome. So pull up a chair and join us in our mn version of Central Perk Café. We share jokes and memes, random facts and thoughts, our highs and lows, we are the card carrying lifelong members of The Union of different kinds.

So whether your life is perfection or;
Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
(If) it's like you're always stuck in second gear
(Whether) it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year,

We'll be here for you.

There's
Vanilla who brought us altogether
Toad & Jet who are our meme champions
Better who is advisory
Portia who has a famous boyf Wink
AGL who is young
Jess who likes to flounce
Red who has red hair
Being who's always there
Noone who is on holiday
Legz who makes purple cakes and Mouse who makes lots of cakes
Cat, MrsTP and others who pop in when they can.
(Sorry to anyone I've forgotten)

Oh and I'm supposed to be starting blues clues but had no idea what that was so will do my homework and add them in soon.

Four hours and fifty minutes to go until I get my flat back for me and Baba.

Not that I'm counting..... Smile

Jess watch Lesbian Vampire Killers

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 14:17

Is it appropriate viewing for a four year old, though, Portia? I don't think I've ever seen it on CBeebies....

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 14:37

Oh no I forgot about your ds's age Jess
Extremely funny film though, James Corden and Gavin fron Gavin and Stacey larking about mostly. Gran would be proud of the language in it.
Currently out for lunch but oily is getting on my nerves, will have to throw some broccolli at him.

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 14:42

Will see if I can download it this evening, portia. Ignore Oily. Hopefully he will slip on his own grease,

AverageGayLad · 28/08/2016 14:55

Just woken up, going to ask about housemate shortly

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 14:58

Good luck, AGL - have to go out for a bit now doing 'fake-family' stuff (3.5 hours and counting...) but will be thinking of you. Glad you got some kip...

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 28/08/2016 15:17

Just dropping in to say kill me now!

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 15:20

Being oh dear!
AGV Good Luck

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 15:29

portia. I can't do links, but check out West Briton re: the air ambulance at Hayle park yesterday. Woman is okay, but.... Do not read if you've just eaten. Am feeling very queasy right now.

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 15:35

Good God Jess that's terrible !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bettercallsaul1 · 28/08/2016 15:40

Being I hope you've told your fake RL family not to worry about planning your wedding as we have it all under control here.

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 17:39

Just in case anyone was wondering this is what's so terrible

portia. Ex took son to the park just as the chopper landed and I arrived about twenty minutes later, luckily from the other end. If we'd taken the short cut, we'd have walked right past those houses. Shudder.

VanillaSugar · 28/08/2016 17:45

I don't understand how she would have even thought she could close the window whilst she was standing outside. She would still have trapped her arm if she'd wanted the window to close fully.

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 17:46

vanilla. I know, it doesn't make sense!

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 28/08/2016 17:47

Omg! That story doesn't seem real! Can you reattach arms? Confused

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 17:49

If not, they'll have to turn her into RoboGran.

Shouldn't laugh; Tis awful.

AverageGayLad · 28/08/2016 17:53

If they keep it on ice and it's been less than an hour there's a good chance they can reattach it

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 28/08/2016 17:58

Did not know that. Ok... That must have been ridiculously painful.

VanillaSugar · 28/08/2016 18:07

Shouldnt speculate, but I think some 🍺🍺🍺🍻🍻🍻 may have been involved.

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 18:34

Im pissed off !!!!!!!!!
Just been accused of shutting down an argument because I gave an example of suicide. I don't understand and am offended.
Tis on the sparticus thread. Has upset me !!!

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 18:37

And I'm not joking am truly upset

RedOnHerHedd · 28/08/2016 18:40

Must've been some force to rip the arm off though. After reading it, DH and I got talking about whether there should be better rules for those over a certain age on whether they are allowed to continue driving or not.

Elderly man up here nearly knocked my son with his car and on a separate occasion drove over a kids bike in the middle of the road (he didn't see it). His car is full of dents. He shouldn't be driving, but all they get is a tick box every 3 years on whether they think they are suitable to drive or not.

Of course they're going to tick that they're OK to drive. The alternative is a lot more difficult for them.

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 18:44

portia. I avoid those threads because of my own dear BFF who died at 28. Don't be upset or offended. Sometimes 'tis better to just disengage. Your intentions are always good - your friends on this thread know that, and we love you for it. Ignore and return to the fold....
