no. he's not my type really. it would basically be a gritted-teeth booty-call. basically it's on a plate, but it's only because he's horny and recently single. that doesn't make me feel necessarily 'special' Hmm I'd kind of prefer it to mean something rather than component parts flapping away ineffectually. I'm such a romantic.

what size are you FLF? I have a black leather look zippy up top that will never fit me again that I would be happy to donate to a good cause/send on loan.

Took, glad mr B ok, even if he is an ignorant sod for not replying to you sooner. vicariously excited about wolfnan! :)

tookoolforskool · 23/02/2011 18:15

snape- are you not even tempted? not even a little bit?
Saying that, unless there was some kind of attraction there, or feeling then its just pants. I can vouch for that mr FB last year... awful!!!

Im glad mr b is ok too. Even though he is an ignorant sod for not replying yesterday. I was alot worried... imagined some kind of michael hutchence style thing. It wasnt until yesterday that i really started to worry. He was working. ( doesnt happen very often) Obviously being neither his mother nor his girlfriend i cannot get in a strop with him for him not telling me where he was.

and im excited about woldfnan too. Am shredding like a crazy woman... eating salad and have a trip into town next week for new underwear. Though he has still reminded me several times today that he wants more than just sex. we shall see.

fairy - yes. ive been Blush
have you looked on their website at what other people wear?
Ive a few friends that also go quite often.... You just need to make sure your outfit is good or they WILL NOT let you in. If its cheap, fancy dress type stuff... you have no hope. If you have few weeks try ebay for some cheaper latex or something... you cant really go wrong with a latex ( pencil if you dont want to show as much flesh) skirt and top.

tookoolforskool · 23/02/2011 18:35

and snape - sorry about train man. meh.
:(

persephonesnape · 23/02/2011 18:48

tookoolforskool · 23/02/2011 19:33

You never know. he might one day come to his senses
he might have turned his back becuse he was thinking ' shit, its that super hot woman. fuck. what am i going to say to her.. shes squashed againist me.. oh no. im getting hard!!! qucik do domething'
so he turned and pretended to not notice.
just saying...
you NEVER know.
People are werid.

SparklyMily · 23/02/2011 19:40

well, it's not boden or the white company now is it?

Grin

and there I am, looking for a cotton candy doris day look for September, maybe I should make tlm's day and have something a little more interesting on underneath Wink

tookoolforskool · 23/02/2011 19:43

lol.
maybe should have posted a warning.

it is fairly out there.
but its all about the outfit.

there are changing rooms at the london one. so you dont have to travel on the tube like that if you dont want to.
i DID NOT go with my boobs or arse out.
Just in case youthought i was odd.

tookoolforskool · 23/02/2011 19:46

( the man in the wings is on my facebook)

i almost had sex with him once.

persephonesnape · 23/02/2011 20:01

took, your version of events is clearly the correct one. i expect to update you all in the next few days with my inadvertantly falling on his cock lap as the train goes over points a little roughly. Wink

clearly his loss

tookoolforskool · 23/02/2011 20:04

lol. yes. that is the very definate version of events.
im sure of it.

lol

if you did happen to fall on his cock lap, make sure you tell us all about it.

Hatesponge · 23/02/2011 22:16

I think tookools version is correct as well :) is v much his loss!

The TG stuff is...well, it makes me feel a bit boring and suburban Blush

Was off work today as new (excessively large and vulgar, but I dont care Grin) TV being delivered. Is now taking pride of place in my bedroom, and definitely the most exciting thing to have happened in there in the last 2 years!

This evening have been emailing (whispers so as not to jinx it) a normalish bloke on POF...he's v much my type. won't give him a name yet cos he will probably have vanished in a puff of smoke by the end of the week knowing my luck Grin

mily, whats the latest on the wedding dress search? any more links to send us?

sincitylover · 23/02/2011 22:38

:o

at the tk description

Flame · 23/02/2011 23:13

I will try and catch up tomorrow. Tired. But go see my TARDIS!!!! :o

Things going well with Smurf. I complained about him being quiet today and not amusing me, so he started 4 games of scrabble :o

FairyLightsForever · 24/02/2011 00:14

The FB pics of the T.A.R.D.I.S. look brilliant,Flame (note the full stops!)WinkGrin

Another vote for took's version of events, snape. I do get you not wanting tatoo man for the sake of just getting some... the whole package would be nice.
I'm a size 8-10 on the top half (no boobs)Sad, so it depends on the shape of the top... my corset only worked because I'd sewn a gel-filled bra into it! Blush

The photos of the last Edinburgh TG have slightly less pvc and rubber, although similar levels of nudity and tit-tape! again, not for the easily shocked!

I've got a month to sort something out, I'm supposed to be going on a shopping trip to Glasgow with my friend, to help her choose her outfit. I'm gussing that I'd get better deals on the internet though. I don't think there are changing rooms in the Edinburgh one, so i don't want anything too extreme!

elastamum · 24/02/2011 01:22

Just back from my date with Mr GW. Lovely meal in really nice pub, we chatted for 3 hours without any awkwardness at all then lovely snog in car park before I left Blush. Am seeing him on monday night again.

Really like him BUT, (here we go girls) he still lives with his ex p as they are trying to sell up, though have been seperated for 18 months. Now he has been quite open about his home situation from the start and he has told me where he lives, so he isnt hiding anything. But I'm not sure what I think about all this. He says they live like 2 flatmates in the same house along with his kids who are older teenagers. Neither of them is planning to move out until they sell.

So my big question is, How single is he?? Should I date a man who still lives with his ex Confused

persephonesnape · 24/02/2011 08:53

train man sat next to me! train man sat next to me!
he smells nice.

I want a TARDIS. preferably with Matt Smith/David Tennant inside (not fussy!)

elasta. i think it's too early to tell. if he's been upfront about the situation and you think it's def over, then personally, i would. but I'd probably want to meet his ex and not get 'too' involved for a wee while until i could judge the lie of the land.

Fairy, this top would be huge on you i think - it's a 12/14. I'll dig it out and measure it.

train maaaaaaan!

SparklyMily · 24/02/2011 09:58

Snape, yay for train man. So what we are saying is he chose to come sit next to you? Was there eye contact? Had you flossed??

Elasta, what snape said. Do they have a plan to sell?

Sponge, kinda ground to a halt on the wedding dress front. I love the suzannah dresses and am going to go try some on sometime in the next few weeks. I am also going to pop into a vintage place in the village, which may conceal hiddens gems so worth a look. The main prob with real vintage 50's is i am just not that shape - no boobs etc, and so many of them are tiny round the waiste and there's no way i am wearing a corset Grin

but from today, my sol can apply for the decree absolute!!!

elastamum · 24/02/2011 10:08

Ohh Snape!!!!

MILY - to answer your question, the house is up for sale (on rightmove) and they are def going their seperate ways.

I think it has all just rolled along as no one else involved on either side. Next time we meet I am going to ask him if his ex knows he is dating and see what he says. I suspect his home situation might become remarkably less cosy the moment other people are involved on either side and I really dont want to be caught in the crossfire Confused

He says he wants to spend some time with me where we can relax, chill and share a bottle of wine. But I cant go to his and he cant come to mine as the kids are here so we are a bit stuck really.

tookoolforskool · 24/02/2011 10:18

SNAPE!!!!

told you.
he fanices you... were there any other seats he could have sat in? i bet yesterday he was texting someone saying ' train lady is standing right next to me!!'

elasta- yeah, thats what i would worry about.

Mily - a decree absolute! well done!!

adamschic · 24/02/2011 11:17

Elasta, it's up to you but I would want to know that his ex was OK with him dating others people before I got involved.

Not sure what to make of TG. As I'm in the sticks it's not somewhere I would have the opportunity to go to but in a way it excites me, maybe I have a closet fetish!! I wouldn't want to show too much flesh though at my age.

Tookool I couldn't see anyone with wings?

I met up with EV again last night, had a nice time. I don't want to rush anything so said I would leave 3rd date for a week Saturday and visit him.

persephonesnape · 24/02/2011 11:59

Mily - more dresses please! and yay for DA! :) i'll be waiting for updates.

Trainman wasn't there when I got there this morning, the train drew in and I had a quick look at the stairs this morning to see him walking down them. Eye contact! Hint of a smile!

After yesterdays rubbish commute, I clearly couldn't be arsed this morning, hadn't exercised and looked like I had been dragged slowly backwards through a hedge. hair scraped back and hadn't wasted my vitaluminere on the bugger. No perfume, certainly no flossing! Of course he sat next to me (yes there were other seats available!) sods law. I did have a coupe of sneaky swatches at his phone though and he wasn't texting filth to Natalie Portman...or, indeed, 'oh my god, I'm sitting next to sexy train lady! must place bag on lap to conceal semi!' Shock Roll on tomorrow, where i will clearly make more of an effort! Then a long weekend of tongue jenga, wine and being ultimately disappointed by PM.

I want a name change. I'm sick of Persephone, although I'm quite fond of 'snape' Snapedragon? (floral) Snapespeare? (literary) RiverSnape (big DW/potter fan)

tookoolforskool · 24/02/2011 12:05

lol
snape. you make me laugh.
'must place bag on lap to conceal semi'

lol.
i just, rather attractivley snorted. good job im the only one in at work today...

You need to make conversation with him :)

i like snapespeare.

lilacisinlove · 24/02/2011 12:20

yay for train man! I like snapespeare :)

elasta, glad your date went well. I spent over a year living in same house as exH so I get where Mr GW is coming from. I didn't want to put my life on hold either. We were more enemies than flatmates though. If he's the right guy, but the timing's not great, he's worth waiting for. It will be a chaste relationship unless you're going to start booking hotel rooms though! I don't know about his ex giving him 'permission' to date, perhaps he doesn't want to discuss it with her. Depends how amicable their relationship is and he might not be ready to discuss that in great detail with you just yet.

eve, glad date 3 went well. Don't know about you, but I never got past date 3 with anyone until I met TLOML, and date 4 was the day after date 3 and unplanned because his plane was cancelled due to snow before xmas.

As for me, well I've just cleaned the bathroom to within an inch of it's life to take out my frustration. Girls were all packed and ready to be dropped at dad's around 11 this morning. Said to DD2 'call Dad and make sure he's in'. He texts her back and says can't answer, he's in a meeting. Check whether he's at work, I asked her...he is. So I have arranged to meet a friend for coffee - cancelled that. Planned to pop into court to sign affidavit so we can get to DN stage in divorce - can hardly do that with kids in tow. Have hair appt at 2pm, cut and colour, deliberately timed so DDs wouldn't have to sit there arguing and fidgeting while they waited for me. I'm NOT cancelling that, so now they will have to sit there and argue and fidget while they wait for me. Bloody unreliable, self-centred b*stard.

Good job our flight to Newcastle to meet up with my friend and meet TLOML's DD (if his ex condescends to allow him access and hasn't got somewhere else to take DD just to be awkward) isn't until tomorrow afternoon, otherwise I'd be driving down the M4 and depositing two DDs, a carful of bags and 2 hamsters in exH's office reception. Perhaps I should attach 'please look after this child' tags a la Paddington Bear for good effect Angry.

adamschic · 24/02/2011 14:09

lilac, last night was date 2! I find out on day 3 whether it's worth sticking around for, Grin.

Hope it all gets sorted and you get to meet the DD.
