Mid 30s TTC - Simply The BESH... BESHer than all the rest!

[Scorpette]

Come on in, ladies. I've had a widescreen telly installed and there's a big cupboard full of 80s teen movies if anyone's interested. New and more secure cages for our prey are being delivered soon. There's a big picture of a desert over the bar, a loudly ticking clock in the corner and bowls of raisins, currants and sultanas on every table; everything the discerning BESH could ask for...

Scorps, I want They Might Be Giants too.

PS Am far from tall (160cm). Do not live in glamorous environs (suburb of Manchester). Are you sure you're looking at MY photos??

PPS 1975, but don't hit me

No weekend plans either (apart from a lot of very very dull cleaning because am a minger and have let house get, um, minging).

Four weekends away in a row after this, so happy for some peace and quiet.

Lyra, am slightly taller than you, BOOYAH! Though 3 years older You seem to be in tropical climes in most of your pics - glam to me. Can you recommend any cool shops, etc., in Manchester?

I never have any weekend plans, ever, cos am dull as dishwater and need as much free time as poss in which to drive myself insane with TTC-madness, as you all no doubt realise. But am going to see 'The Invention of Lying' tomorrow. If TYF doesn't chicken out (v shy, hates crowds). Again.

They Might Be Giants - thirded. Is it weird that I often run to a TMBG soundtrack? I find Birdhouse and Your Racist Friend particularly conducive to cardio.

Also would love a comedy tent, especially if it includes Stewart Lee, Mitchell & Webb and Tim Minchin. I love Tim Minchin.

Oh please add Electric Forecast to the comedy tent. They are the two blokes from Big Cook Little Cook, doing an altogether more adult show

Scorps when does R2D2 arrive/not arrive to put us you our of our your misery and 2WOOFLing?

curly the only prob with that is that I will have to kill them for inflicting 'big twat,little twat' on the world.

scorp I recommended the xx to you. Bitch.

you may also like joe Gideon and the shark.

You won't like Big Cook Little Cook.

Yo gabba gabba, now that's good kids tv.

I want bailey,izzard,the boosh boys and the conchords (as long as they only do series one material)

believe me, as EF, the big twat little twats are very different. And the dark haired short one is quite sexy in person, in his civvies .

since i started 9-5 work i'm not very up on kids' tv. Must watch more (although youtube-ing the stuff from the 80s is more fun)

And scorp do you know the national? If you like camel's music taste you will agree that Alligator is one of the best albums ever ever ever.

curly look up yo gabba gabba on you tube. It's post-club mentallism for kids! Try 'there's's a party in my tummy' for starters.

Big cook? Sexy? Sorry but he will always be tainted to me. Bleeeeurgh

camel I see your itunes madness and raise you one.

BESHies have good taste in music for the most part, I second the Smiths.

I do find that Pink and Lady Gaga are good for cardio as well. (pauses for shout down to commence)

... I ... have ... nothing ... to say about baybee making....

I would like Radiohead to be there please

Also The Prodigy

And underworld in their early year. Did a lot of good poking to Underworld

scratch that - unless someone was shooting a gun at me, I'd probably never run out of the room screaming

Violent Femmes

Scorpette If R2D2 has not yet arrived, when will you be POAS for all of us?

I saw "The Ugly Truth" last night. 4 penis' in the face out of 5.

gin, I know you did; I just worded the post badly. I do know The National and think they're pretty good.

CUNTY, are you saying I'm a boring loon? I've managed a couple of posts without TWOOFL craziness. Droid due Sunday, still getting occasional tiny bit of beige when wiping, that's all. Sorry all, I know I do go on a bit. Think cos I am one of Nature's worriers but keep myself to myself (like a proper Scorpio, like) in RL, I tend to blurt too much here.

RE: BESHtival/Besh Fest or whatever it'll be called - I want The Pixies AND The Breeders, but is that too much to ask of Kimdeal? And can we have early-80s Adam Ant to perv over? Pretty please?

penises

Why would you do such a thing to yourself ski? WHY? If things don't progress tomorrow, will be wielding my red biro Sunday morning - that soon enough for ya?!

Cuntshine - YES to the Violent Femmes! 'Blister in the sun' is my ring tone.

penii?

No, POAS tomorrow morning pls.

Would you also like to go forward in time in a time machine and be at the birth of my first child?

And this helps my TWOOFl, how, exactly? Hmmmph!

lol scorps not boring so much as OBSESSIVE I'm exhausted for you!

And frankly, if you don't POAS tomorrow I simply shan't be able to lie on the sofa drinking, smoking and injecting with any degree of peace.

Can I have Smashing Pumpkins?

cunty 'i like doing that too!'

(sorry old steve martin quote...)

scorp that is a very good song.

Can we have elbow too? Guy garvey's lyrics are amazing.

Incidentally, do any BESHes listen to radio 6? Best radio around (if you ignore poor simple George lamb)

marc riley's show in the evenings is fucking great - mani goes to sleep to it every night so is having a cracking musical education! Adam n joe on Saturday mornings...and guy Garvey Sunday nights. Most excellent.

Am watching derren brown.always weird,I knew him at uni,it's mad he's all mr big star! He is scarily good at things tho...

And scorp we're all coming to the birth. Bringing popcorn n everything!

I heart six music. I raved about it on another thread (ostensibly about Chris Moyles but which turned into, from my perspective, a Mark Radclife love-in)and I love Marc Riley. It's the Radio 1-and-a-half, for people who are not quiiiiiiite old enough for Radio 2

cunty yay!!! I've always had a soft spot for mr Radcliffe too,dating back from when he did 'out on blue six' in the evenings on r1 when we were still at school- remember that??

Ps like the description of r6!!
