Flame Shock at the groping! Seems par for the course on mnet do's.

Lou hope you get it fixed.

Janos · 28/11/2010 22:05

Wow, sounds like a fab day Flame! Champagne and choc, yum yum yum. I'd be well away!

Janos · 28/11/2010 22:06

Tis snowing again here. Hope schools isn't closed, tho if it is at least I have day off tomorrow.

Remotew · 28/11/2010 22:08

I hope school isn't closed, then I can internet get on without DD under my feet!

Janos · 28/11/2010 22:11

"schools isn't closed?"

...maybe I should go back to school Grin

Me too, eve. Sexes reversed obv!

Flame · 28/11/2010 22:12

No snow here. it was very mild groping... he was scared and only wanted directions. Don't think the poor guys knew what hit em with the group of shrieking women.

Remotew · 28/11/2010 22:17

I'm curious about the fondling of fellow mumsnetters too. What a nice husband bringing you choccy, champers and tiaras, sigh!

lou33 · 28/11/2010 22:22

He just ordered some online, but still have piles of washing waiting

And did i mention that dp fixed a netters car last week? One i know but he doesnt. She sent me a text today asking if it was him lol

Actually he didnt fix it he recovered it but ykwim

Flame · 28/11/2010 22:26

Mamazon has the most amazing norks in the world and they are at eye level... it has become tradition that i nestle.

I couldn't remember why I flashed serenity but she tells me that she was complaining about it being a very tame night and that no-one had flashed or anything, so i did it to make her smile. .

Considering I was discussing this evening that i am off men for a while but women aren't ruled out... should i be taking more note of myself? Hmm

Remotew · 28/11/2010 22:41

Flame, don't say that, a friend of mine took me seriously, not in a good way, when I rambled on about something similar Blush. I never would, of course!

Remotew · 28/11/2010 22:43

Lou, I don't know how you keep on top of the washing for so many people, I struggle with mine and DD's. I hate washing!

Flame · 28/11/2010 22:48

Tbh I don't know how I would react if I had an offer. Have always been of the opinion that I believe in love rather than sexuality if that makes sense? I have only ever fallen for men but wouldn't rule out the right woman iyswim.

It would be a "relationship" rather than fwb though. fwb would always have to be male Wink.

Still on the gin sofa for the time regardless of gender :o. Organic meetings only for a while! unless i manage to kidnap Matt cardle.

Flame · 28/11/2010 22:49

don't you love the way i assume a New fwb will be easy to find? . I had gotten used to a sex life dammit.

Remotew · 28/11/2010 22:54

Well there is a lot of them on POF who would love you as a FWB!

Flame · 28/11/2010 23:01

see i want a natural one of them too.

Janos · 28/11/2010 23:02

I loathe and detest all forms of housework.

Flame - if you really want a fwb, they are not hard to find!

You do need to choose carefully though. Last thing you want is to end up with some creep who gets his (or her, lets be even handed) jollies from manipulating people and playing stupid mind games.

No snow in London... I want a day off school tomorrow

However, to keep things in perspective, my TA won't be in all week because she had a house fire yesterday Shock. Luckily they are all safe but the house is uninhabitable and the ground floor badly damaged.

Janos · 28/11/2010 23:08

Blimey lilac your poor TA! What a nightmare.

Flame · 29/11/2010 08:59

Shock your poor TA!

I will be sensible Janos :) I am hoping that my whole sex life thing will be ok as I have sort of had a hiatus in the drought :o

Janos · 29/11/2010 10:07

I'm sure you will Flame :-)

Janos · 29/11/2010 11:46

We are snowed in big time up here. Around 3ft of snow in my garden!

Remotew · 29/11/2010 11:55

Oh dear Janos, it's a pain isn't it? DD went to school, I heard the door go at 8pm when I was snoozing in bed, they most likely walked and it's 2 1/2 miles so I'm proud of her. We didn't get anymore snow last night, I did tell her I wouldn't be digging the car out until I have to go to work tomorrow so hopefully she won't be ringing at 3 for a lift back which is great as I'm still in my pj's.

Flame · 29/11/2010 12:21

Not a flake here

hatesponge · 29/11/2010 13:17

no snow here tho v cold, particularly when waiting for train at 7am this morning! Hmm

not much news either save that today would have been my mum's 71st birthday. will raise a glass to her later :)

on a less sombre note, could use a little advice from you all - am going for a meal with some former colleagues soon. have mixed feelingsd about going as know I will inevitably have to face a barrage of 'have you met anyone yet' type questions, and lots of well meaning advice about where they think I'm going wrong Hmm if you think of the smug marrieds in Bridget Jones you wouldn't be too far wrong!

If I say I'm happily single, they will treat me as though I am clearly barking. How could I possibly be happy to be single? If I say I'm unhappy, then cue the sympathy and advice. Either way it's clear they think I'm a failure because I don't have a man. Now I know thats not true...but how do I deal with them? Any ideas - or do I just have to let it all wash over me?
