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.

Thank you Jess. I always worry that they don't come across how I mean them.

Yes my step father is ok but would rather have my Dad back! I think its the fact that he's only 42 doesnt help. Mum is going off him I think. He works 6 weeks on and 4 weeks off an oil rig. Good job that means he's not around much. Don't like him being sarky to Mum but she's good at putting him in his place. He doesnt say much to Gran she'd kill him with a stare

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 22:54

portia 42! That would be like me being your step mum!

jetSTAR · 28/08/2016 23:11

portia. Correction, 'our' song is Tatu -All the Things She Said.

I still have my girl-crush and will fight Aidie if needs be (though might quite enjoy that).

Anyone else remember when Richard and Judy tried to get said song banned?

KimmySchmidtsSmile · 28/08/2016 23:17

Guten Abend. I said I'll be back eventually

VanillaSugar · 28/08/2016 23:20

Hello, gosh, I've missed a lot tonight.
And most of it Sad

I've always wondered whether this should be in Chat too. And then, do you remember, it DID get moved to Chat and then MNHQ apologised and moved it back again.

Oh. 😭😢😂😆 Thank you for your nice comments about these threads. I got a little bit of hayfever or something when I read that bit..

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 23:21

Yes I know Jess Mum is 15 gears older than him. At first I thought he was sniffing round Mum because of her holiday lets and money. He seems to have a few quid though. Of course my Mum is pretty like me Grin and doesnt !ook her age. Whirlwind romance and they got married. Mum !oves him I suppose but I find him creepy. Loves himself does that one. Gran doesn't like him but as I said Mum loves him.
My Dad was older but died at 56. We have been a fortunate family through inheritance on his side so Mum got the holiday lets and charges the earth.
Any hooossseee Aidey time

jetSTAR · 28/08/2016 23:23

Sorry you have been upset Portia Flowers

Some people aren't very kind. Nobody has lived your life except you.

Stick with us, we are kind. This is the longest I have been on any MN thread for ages. I joined in 2009.

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 23:26

Kimmy thank you. Still not sure why that person was so nasty but I feel better for the last post I put on there. Shouldn't let a twat get to me.

AverageGayLad · 28/08/2016 23:28

Grindr is GPS related and you got the acronyms right, Kimmy.

I've had a GREAT threesome evening

However staff told me my housemate lost both boys :(

AverageGayLad · 28/08/2016 23:29

Also Kimmy Are you German?

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 23:31

AGL. I'm so sorry, sweetie. We love you.

AverageGayLad · 28/08/2016 23:35

Thankyou Jess Flowers

I'm not so much upset, they weren't my babies, I just feel bad for her :(

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 23:35

Thanks JET its just that I thought my post was nice and then got accused of using suicide to shut down debate. Anyway they now know what I think and they are whining about posts being deleted. Clearly nobody is allowed a different pov.to them
Harumph !

KimmySchmidtsSmile · 28/08/2016 23:35

Don't let it get to you Porsche

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 23:37

Oh AGL thats tragic. So sad

VanillaSugar · 28/08/2016 23:38

Gosh Portia 6 years older than you..... that's got to be tricky. As opposed to hearing about AGLs exploits which just sound yucky Shock

AverageGayLad · 28/08/2016 23:39

I'm bilingual :)

I never thought, moving into a children's home that I'd get So close to her - but then we have lived together for three years.

AverageGayLad · 28/08/2016 23:40

Vanilla you'd better find toad then so she can keep an eye on me.

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 23:40

I think we need a list of where everyone is from.Well region or Country. That would be interesting to me.

KimmySchmidtsSmile · 28/08/2016 23:41

Ah one man's meat fish is another man's poisson. < I speak a bit of French too Wink

KimmySchmidtsSmile · 28/08/2016 23:43

I am in Bavaria.
What other language(s) do you speak AGL?

ItShouldHaveBeenJess · 28/08/2016 23:44

AGL

Ok. This is the only 'German' I can speak.

Nehmen die erste strasse (that should be one of those fancy 'B' thingies) links.

Is that even a sentence? Grade me.

PortiaCastis · 28/08/2016 23:45

Yes Vanilla and when you add in the fact that dd is 17 our family's ages are odd because she has a step gd of 42
