Grin tookool

the power of twitter is quite scary.....one comment and you've created a national news story!

tookoolforskool · 25/02/2011 07:49

ha. i know. i didnt even twitter it.
But kind of realised as soon as mr big did that something was going to happen. He is friends with ridiclous people that do important jobs.
( and a whole lot of journalists)

Lilac, i hope you arent angry. He had just been there that weekend ( when he was missing) taking pics of the shard.. so i just said that someone i knew had been up there.. and he didnt believe me because the floor you have been on is barley constructed, so i said, yes. its true. they saw someone trying to catch a fox.

and that was it.

and now its the front page of the sun.

Confused

tookool, don't worry, it's old news...it was already in last Saturday's Daily Telegraph, fox and all. My parents brought a copy up when they were here last weekend. The fox had been there for over a week when I visited.

I couldn't hate you, anyway...I reserve all my grudges and prejudice for my ex Grin.

Off to Newcastle with TLOML later, his ex has decided to take his DD and her older daughter away for the weekend Hmm so I won't be able to meet his DD and more importantly, she won't be able to spend the day with her dad. He is upset and annoyed, justifiably.

As I typed that the fox story was on Heart news at 8.30!

tookoolforskool · 25/02/2011 09:27

oh. well. phew.

lol

heart news!!!!
old news that maybe wasnt that exciting the first time round.

I kind of hoped you wouldnt hate me seeing as you had put the info on a public website, im just abit shocked that its the front page of the pissing sun.

lol

Sorry about your ex, and TLOML ex sounds just as awful.

Flame · 25/02/2011 10:33

LOL!

I wish XH cared about seeing the DC in the same way as TLOML. He has bought DS more f*ckin xbox games for "his birthday", They are to live at his house. The place they go for 25 hours at the weekend Hmm. Yeah. They were for him.

He is 5 ffs. He doesn't need more fcking xbox games. He needs balls and trips to parks. Taking out occasionally.

Still pissed off about last night. I was back by 11.20pm. That is not a late night in my book. He was arsey I didn't reply to the heating text, but I ignored texts figuring emergencies he would phone for, and by the time I saw it it would have turned off with timer anyway. Plus if he could have been arsed it is a very basic system had he bothered to look, or that really far out idea - turn off the sodding radiators! Angry

Plus side.... My hair and top smell of boyness :)

Hi All, Just pretending to work catching up Shock about fox! At least they have got the poor thing down.

Nothing happening here this weekend. Am on my own, but no date or anything as seeing Mr GW on Monday and have not bothered with anyone one else, which is not good really..

Cnat decide what to do nxt week. Am staying over down south, which could be good oportunity for a snog a night out. Or I could play it safe and go out with girlfriends instead. Suspect my hormoes might get the better of me on this one though Blush

lilacisinlove · 25/02/2011 13:20

elasta, go for it Grin

snape, hurry up with today's train man update please! I have a plane to catch...

elastamum · 25/02/2011 13:32

SparklyMily · 25/02/2011 13:59

listen to your hormones Elasta Smile

....TM update please?

Snapespeare · 25/02/2011 15:07

:(

you will possibly be even more disappointed than I - it was a TM-less day. I got to the station early, decided to not get the 7.47, which was somehwat surprisingly on time Hmm so was at the front of the queue for the 7.53, so had to take it. The next one is 7.57. TM must make more of an effort - it's not like he actually has to brush his hair before he leaves the house.

And my hair was nice. And i'd gone to the lengths of vitaluminere. :(

Flame · 25/02/2011 19:28

lol snape! :o

Smurf is going out drinking tonight. I have been told that drunken messages are inevitable. I like that. Not necessarily drunken ramblings but not being forgotten.

Oh and Brackets is back. If you message me on FB I will send you on his message he sent on there Hmm

Flame · 25/02/2011 19:36

Gah, I am a Bad Bad Friend.

Mate wants to come from London tomorrow to share her woes. I want to go in with Smurf. Smurf wins Blush

Snapespeare · 25/02/2011 19:37

oh my!! brakets message is almost too much to resist!

platonic man on his way over for curry, beer & probably general disappointment...

Flame · 25/02/2011 19:49

Resist you shall not. Or one of you shall not anyway what we me only being partially sure I know who you are....

Lol @ disappointment.

adamschic · 25/02/2011 20:43

Had a quick catch up. Lilac really bad form from his ex, she cannot bury her head in the sand for much longer. Also the press thing, I know this sort of thing can escalate, but glad no harm done and it was already out there. I don't do twitter, looked at it once and didn't get it, still don't!

Flame, just me, but I would put a girlfriend over a guy anyday, no competition with me, to a point obviously, so hope he was worth it Smile.

Hope everyone is OK, I'm dealing with a mini crisis atm.

FairyLightsForever · 25/02/2011 20:56

Hope you're ok Eve x

Flame · 25/02/2011 21:00

Were it another friend I probably would tbh, but she has let me down so many times iyswim.

Flame · 25/02/2011 21:07

thinking of you eve xx

Hatesponge · 25/02/2011 21:22

adams, hope all ok with you x

flame, I think for me it would depend on the friend - if she's one to let you down then I wouldn't feel bad, do what you want to do.

have been asked on a date - sort of- by someone on POF, and we've swapped numbers. Not the one I quite like, this one's cute but maybe a bit young for me...will call him Cowboy.

Also had a message from an (alleged) ex pro footballer. I suspect this may be bending the truth slightly....am thinking a couple of reserve team appearances for Leyton Orient or similar in the early 90's rather than regular premier league player. Am so cynical Grin

The nice one, am not sure about. He likes my smile apparently. Will a date result from it though...who knows?!

lou33 · 25/02/2011 23:20

evening all

mily, it isnt dd who is ill but my dog lol

i thought she was picking up but she was sick again a short while ago :(

hope everyone is ok

elastamum · 25/02/2011 23:41

Evening all, just checking in

Eve, hope your day went OK, thinking of you x

Lou, sorry about the dog, always a worry. I have been to the vet this eve with dog1, has to have major leg op in 2 weeks as she has torn a ligament in her leg and its not getting better Sad

Have just finished replying to Mr GW. we seem to have slipped into a daily e mail exchange. So having tried to be suitably witty, am now off to bed.

Night, night

tookoolforskool · 26/02/2011 08:48

sponge_ YAY!!!! so - when is it, what you doing, what you wearing? :) :) :)

lou, sorry about the dog being ill. not nice, hope the op goes ok.

Snape , aw. no train man. :(

Still laughing about the fox story, but of course means ive been nattering away to mr big constantly for the last 3 days. ooohhhh. mr big, swoooooonnnn.
So, just means i still love him. But still refuse to be with him. Do you know what he actually said, when i said i couldnt belive about the fox being the headline news for the sun.. he said ' well, i told you i was powerful'
seriously, what kind of ego says that! what a tit. i told him he was a tit with the biggest ego in the world, and an arrogant one at that, and he just says, ' yeah, i know' and laughs.
hugely attractive... just not relationship material.

TB ( on my facebook, cant remember what name i called him, so shall be TB from now on).... well. all this rude talk.... and er, classy picture swapping a la ashley cole, might have caused a slight problem... the expectation for next sunday is now that we will end up shagging. Which, i think id quite like (alot) BUT then there is that whole awkward thing of what if i change my mind, or dont fancy him. or he doesnt fancy me, when we actually meet.
( lesson to be learnt here... dont behave in such sluttish ways)
any advice?? ( other than i shouldnt have done it in the first place)

Still talking to budist.. havent got an actual date for the date yet.. but should be nect week. try to do coffee or something. I find evening first dates a bit too formal i think.

PLus. EX husband called yesterday ,hes got last min notice that hes off to kenya for about 7 weeks monday and could he have DD. HAd to drop everthing and take her half way to his ( to help him out.. else hes not going to see her for ages)
Which means im not going to get muych of a break for about 2 months.. meh. Mother and sister have said they wull help out some weekends... we shall see...

tookoolforskool · 26/02/2011 10:45

oh. and the fox story is worldwide news now.
