thrilled to be kicking off part 6 on a sinful note lol

Blaming the vino for texting samename1 and asking him out - he text right back suggesting early this afternoon but don't think I can make it as am waiting for my brother who is coming down to help me swap washing machines and is always late bless him!

Then had a rather raunchy chat with young guy who have been in touch with for ages - trying to think of a nickname for him - very good looking - lives in your neck of the woods Lou. Think we might meet up soon.

At least resisted the urge to text exbf.

yes you never know, crossovers have happened!

Holly23 · 07/04/2009 21:07

RJ - I'm sure you can buy mosquito repellent cream or something. As for clothes, if its difficult going out to the shops or theres a lack of choice, have you tried going online and looking at Freemans or Littlewoods? they do some nice stuff.
Inthemist - With Fittie, I think we just decided we need to take our time, I'm not sure whether dealing with the death of 2 relatives made him feel like he needed to shut himself off for a bit, but the contacts always been there and its been getting more frequent over last week or so. I suppose I am a bit confused tbh

Janos · 07/04/2009 21:09

rj you will not know what to do with yourself

ridingjoker · 07/04/2009 21:17

janos - certainly know what i want to do with superman though pj's will not be required

i've ordered loads online so far holly. but keep sending it back as not suitable.i am struggling tbh to find anything.everything is higeous in shops just now. have ordered a dress from diesel online that should be ok. will have to wait and see. btw sent you msn but no reply???

will be hunting down repellent.think you can get a suntan cream that has it included.dreading the temp though. already mid 30's. i cant deal with heat very well.

Holly23 · 07/04/2009 21:31

RJ - I replied to you on msn but you had gone offline?
Try Freemans anyway, you never know!

ridingjoker · 07/04/2009 21:33

i'll try aain with msn.

ridingjoker · 07/04/2009 21:35

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/04/2009 01:48

just popping on before bed for a nosey
hi tortoise and keep your arse on this thread lol
will do you good girl
have actually had a good tues nite here been chatting to that fella i mentioned earlier
he's meeting the interesting and available category
tho haven't seen a pic yet as he's just joined so dont know about the fit part!
yep.ladies prob.knowing my crap luck will be a munter lol
eve was so looking forward to some webcam tales from you,shame theres nothing happ.for you on pof,but it changes so quickly doesn't it
inthemist!!
cybermen crown heading down to London me thinks!
will still keep my eyes perving peeled on frd for you as i know that you're off there now but it's wise not to remove your profile just in case
am still holding out hope here for you and marathon man
scl this is sounding a poss here for you too
and oh the temptation of an empty house lol

Tortoise · 08/04/2009 11:16

blond I will try but i am totally lost as to what everyone is talking about lol!
I gave up on POF but may have a look later.
Am on Match but not as member. Also o
n smooch and a member on single with kids dating.

Had the most messages on single with kids though. But find it weird that nearly all of the blokes(who have contacted me) say no kids on their profile!

Tortoise · 08/04/2009 11:17

Where di the e from blonde go? lol!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/04/2009 12:41

on single with kids surely you're meant to be a parent to be a member?
perhaps they mean that they don't want any more?
yes this is a fast moving thread for sure but you'll soon catch up with it
as you've probably gathered we're all pretty hopeless with it too
dating again really is a minefield

Tortoise · 08/04/2009 12:47

Weell that is what i thought but in the profile it says how many kids and a lot say 0!
Haven't looked at the women so i don't know if any of them are the same!lol!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/04/2009 13:08

what a cheek!
they shouldnt be on there then in that case!
what do you think of match?
janos sent me the profile of the most gorgeous fella off there and if i wasn't already a paid up member of frd i would have joined for sure

lou33 · 08/04/2009 13:57

whats new? i am sick today and feel rotten

male best friend has offered to come bring stuff but tbh i dont want anyone here

Tortoise · 08/04/2009 15:05

Haven't actually looked on Match for a while. Might join when swk membership ends!

Sorry you are ill Lou.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/04/2009 15:54

aww lou
hope the dc are being good to you
tortoise don't know whereabouts you are in the country but i've heard that match can be good
how long have you got left on the other?
has that one got a large membership base?
frd i think goes in cycles it's been pretty pants of late but appears to be picking up

inthemistsoftime · 08/04/2009 16:33

ohh its very quite today, not a peep from any of the cyber men!

and this thread as well, am bored and in need of a laff.

inthemistsoftime · 08/04/2009 16:35

membership to frd has now lapsed, it wasn't that good anyway although did find marathon man on there.

am thinking of dating affinity, anyone had any experience of it?

asbm, that for keeping an eye out for me.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/04/2009 16:53

inthemist i hope you're enjoying wearing that crown tho
we had it altered to fit your petite little self
it's travelled a fair old way from the midlands via scotland you know!
what is dating affinity?
have you checked out the guardian on yet?

lou33 · 08/04/2009 17:12

i am just lying on the sofa, dd1 is out and my friend is picking her up for me, but i am also having her son overnight as well

she is going to bring fish and chips for everyone to eat to save me cooking, or doing anything but loll about

inthemistsoftime · 08/04/2009 17:27

hi asbm, I checked out the guardian, and I thought it was a bit too high browed for me!

datingdirectaffinity, I liked the vibe, nice guys on there not like pof! although pof has been good to me, once you learn to sort the dross out.

I shall keep my eyes out for any of potentials in the Midlands as well.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/04/2009 17:31

oh lou that sounds ideal
brought in,no cooking and eaten straight from the packet no washing up either!
inthemist oh right!
am intrigued now lol
has bob finally buggered off or are you still getting those sad little texts?
ooh we like potential in the midlands as long as they come without the accents

Tortoise · 08/04/2009 18:45

Blonde I am in somerset. Think i have about a month left on SWK.

Lou We had chippy food too! Only cos it is DS1's birthday though!

aseriouslyblondemoment · 08/04/2009 19:50

tortoise if you mail me can trawl on frd for you
always happy to look perve for a fellow mn-er!
my addy is on the thread somewhere lol or i'll post it again
i know a couple of people who have used swk with mixed success
is it expensive or do they offer discounts for longer-term membership?
lou hope you're still on that sofa suitably stuffed now from your fish and chip supper

Tortoise · 08/04/2009 20:06

Thanks that would be good!
SWK is £4.99 a month but so far i haven't had to pay that much!
1st month i joined was 1/2 price. Then i left it a bit before re-joining when they offered two months for the price of one.

I had to join because i put on the free profile but unless full member you can't read any messages you get sent! That was annoying!
