to have forgotten what went with frangipan?

[Hullygully]

Skips prettily about the vast empty potentiality of the empty Hall and awaits.

charming, yet very ungay tones

hee hee

Any port in a storm, Paggy. A bum is a bum.

I think you need to explore rude food next, Mimi. What about a huge sausage pointing skywards on a couple of beetroots (but NO faggots)?

YY, I love 'ungay tones' too

I think I was very brave! He did refer to one room as the "gay' room, and I asked if this is where he was gay in, and he said, oh no, I'm not gay, but the previous owners were and it had red light bulbs in it....

Never say never Mimi, he may be thinking the same as you, that you're not interested in him

We shall be waiting to hear how it develops!

I do hope you admired his hose and asked to be careful not to get you too wet.

am liking the rude food...bratwurst and sauerkraut, anyone?

He did say he noticed my portion sizes had increased, and that was a Good Thing.

Well done, Gibbon. Just the right note, there.

You were very brave, Mimi. It can be so terribly difficult to tell these days if a swain is feeling swainish or just friendly.

So much easier in the dropped hanky days.

we did discuss good recipes for pork....

Ask him if he likes pink quivering delicate moist slices of fish.

Hully, I am not sure you are quite ready to leave the schoolroom yet, I might have to postpone your debut into society if you cannot learn to be more Ladylike.

@ quivering fish

Tell him you do like a nice bit of pork that goes down well.

lol mimi

mwah, Gibbon. Now, off to do pork stroganoff with three mustards...gotta love delia.

Mimi's cooking skills

Mwah

actually, thinking back over the conversation, I think he might want a job rather than my lovely self. Very keen on cooking, and said he would love to cook in my kitchen but thought electric would be a struggle....

Mimi, you don't know what his intentions are yet, he could be hinting for you to offer a session after hours

'oh why don't you pop to mine after closing and you can shove something in and see how it comes out?'

Oh Gibbon!

You are all romance, you old softie you!

My old boss had a sign made for me. It said

'Face of an angel, mouth of a scaffolder'

Most would never know it though, I am v good at pretending to be a lady, I have nearly everyone fooled

I would like to be a Man Magnate when I grow up.

Congratulations on the acquisition of funds and the determination of heterosexuality Mimi. Could you perhaps sneakily take a photo of the fellow and pop it up on FB so that we can ogle?

Snorrrrrrrrt @ "pink quivering delicate moist slices of fish".

I am Home Alone today with no baby and a dose of something gastric. What does one do with oneself in such a situation?

Oh, and God bless Aitch and her round-up for alerting me to Paggy's Beyonce antics! This work malarkey makes it very hard to keep on top of you ladies.

Pag and her builders

Ahoy hoy Madame. Howzit hanging?

Am vair keen to come to your own special Hackney Empire. For I have reason to be in your neck of the woods from time to time.

Am tempted to just pop in unannounced like a sort of Mumsnet mystery shopper. I suppose thats a terrible idea and it only seems like a good one to me because I have had wine.

(Whoops sorry for crashing hijack, I should have started another thread. Was just pleased to see Madame. As you were, ladies.)
