it was a painted ship upon a painted ocean
monty if the maid had it, it may well turn up at some point in the great melting pot of belongings that is ebay
and if it does, I will find it and send it to you
however in return i will expect you to scare my children on occasion

Monty100 · 26/06/2010 00:29

Ninah - But it was a scary ship painted on a scary ocean. If you find it I'd be very grateful and I'm sure I could easily scare your children.

ninah if i was wanting to scare mine now i'd just have a pic of their dad hanging beside their beds
mont hang on in there over the dress..and wtf how on earth can FC charge that in the shops..granted their stuff is good quality but nowhere near that price bracket

Monty100 · 26/06/2010 00:45

PMSL at picture of their dad lolol.

Anything I've ever bought in FC has been at least half price their prices are outrageous. I do like a lot of their stuff though. The bid was cheeky but you never know your luck eh?

Hope my posts about the maid and stuff don't sound pretentious, we were a family of 10 dc's and moved to a much smaller house because my dad was ill.

Is dp off tomorrow?

aseriouslyblondemoment · 26/06/2010 01:15

yeah it would give me more than the bloody heebie jeebies..but get this,he was actually civil on the doorstep tonight
sadly dp is doing nights so won't see him over the w/e,actually am not expecting to have a proper w/e together til aug
and hey we're non judgemental on this thread which is v un MN i know!!
and btw eve chose hermione norris to play me in the film version of the thread as i'm posh totty lol
forgetting who everyone else was cast as tho except pmg as nicole kidman(obv) and eve as helen baxendale which again is a good choice
might archive this one day when i'm avoiding housework bored
anyhow must get to bed muchos domestic drudgery lined up for tomorrow
nn xx

Janos · 26/06/2010 11:56

asbm - Hermione Norris would be perfect for you! That's who I would have picked . And eve as Helen Baxendale....are we basing this on cold feet? LOL

Anyhow I need your advice everyone...I've just made a bit of a faux pas! Can you tell me if this is rescuable?

I sent a message back to that lovely publishing guy who has invited me on a date and I GOT HIS BLOODY NAME WRONG. I called him by his nickname instead of his proper name. How should I handle that? Acknowledge and apologise or what?

Janos · 26/06/2010 11:59

lou - just read back a bit you poor soul sounds awful. Hope you have lots of RL help and support. Being ill is one of the worst things about being a single mum cause somehow you just have to get on with it.

Hope you are getting plenty of rest.

Remotew · 26/06/2010 12:16

Janos, he shouldn't mind. I thought you meant you called him Jack instead of John or something.

I love plan B too.

ASBM I'm sure this guy is geniune and all that but finding love to me is a needle in a haystack, sadly just because someone wants me usually means its not reciprocated. I usually fall for the most unsuitable ones imaginable. It's like the fb group my DD joined. 'Cupid can you hit us both next time'.

FWB rang to see me tonight. I asked him to come to a get together with me but he said he didn't want to intrude. I really wanted to see him but had to play it cool. He sounded dissapointed.

Janos · 26/06/2010 12:27

I kind of did eve...his nickname is a real name (IYSWIM). Aaaargh. Oh well...tis tiredness.

"sadly just because someone wants me usually means its not reciprocated"

That's happened to me before as well. Just because someone likes you - you are not obliged to like them back!

piratecat · 26/06/2010 13:39

OMFG

sorry ladies but I just looked on POF and one guy's headline reads

'looking for a squirter!'

he then goes on to sound perfectly ordinary, and looking for serious relationship.

piratecat · 26/06/2010 13:41

Monty, sorry ,just scrolled thru briefly, dd is still not well, hasn't been to school for 2 weeks. this is life i am afriad. x

Monty100 · 26/06/2010 18:36

Hi everyone

Pirate - for dd. Could you get some home ed?

WTF is a 'squirter'?

ASBM - ROFL at 'posh totty'.

Am exhausted, can't do any more. It'll be beer o'clock soon.

OP posts:
aseriouslyblondemoment · 26/06/2010 19:11

evening all
rofl @ squirter...and monty stop with all this sheltered life stuff lol
any news on the dress?
pc v sorry to hear about the ongoing situ with dd,do hope that you're getting a bit of time to yourself tho
janos i imagine that you're overthinking this one,he does sound rather lovely tho
yes eve was played by helen baxendale
shame about fwb tonight

Monty100 · 26/06/2010 19:38

ASBM - just tell me what WTF it is then!

Offer on dress was not surprisingly declined so I'll wait and see and up the ante later on.

Janos - did you text him back?

Eve - hmm, shame he won't join you.

I can't think of who could play me. I don't know actresses names, but I do know who Hermione Norris is as I really like her . Someone at work says I look like someone, or they like me, but I can't for the life of me think of the name now (see what I mean, hopeless at names) .

I'm truly done in. Have justed cracked a beer. Shame I'm just too tired to go out for an hour on this lovely summer's evening, but wild horses wouldn't get me moving at mo.

Hope everyone has had a good day.

aseriouslyblondemoment · 26/06/2010 19:47

female ejaculation!!
shame about the dress but you never know you may still win it yet!

Monty100 · 26/06/2010 19:58

Ewwww! Lol, thanks for that! I'm not asking any more about it.

I need to look at the auction again, I don't think there's an end time which might mean they just wait to someone offers the full whack.

about dp working weekends. Have you got any girlie nights planned?

OP posts:
aseriouslyblondemoment · 26/06/2010 20:09

monty check this out!!
170504857257
some feedback a bit iffy from a while back tho

Monty100 · 26/06/2010 20:20

Aw thanks ASBM

I'm already watching it lol! There does seem to be a lot on there, it makes you wonder.

It'll go up to £££ I bet, I've seen them fighting over FC stuff on there before.

Oh, dp remembered the actress' name, its Emilia Fox, but neither of us can see the similarity at all. . It would probably have to be someone quite barking to play me, what do you think .

I've got Glastonbury on. Awful what I've seen/heard so far.

OP posts:
aseriouslyblondemoment · 26/06/2010 20:26

brownie points for trying tho lol
i'm just off to sainsbos for some salady bits for my dinner...and for something to wash it down with
don't even know who's playing at glasto this year{feeling v old emoticon}

Monty100 · 26/06/2010 20:33

Mmm I should have done Sainsbo's to save me having to do it tomorrow, but I lost the will to even stand by about 6.30 I've done solid housework since 10am with a bit of gardening/washing thrown in. grr

Make sure you treat yourself to a nice one.

OP posts:
sincitylover · 26/06/2010 20:45

I do like Ellie Goulding - folktronica

And also Plan B - very sexy but too young for me.

LOL at squirter - don't think I have ever squirted.

Fancy asking for that though.

DS2 didn't go to exh today - ds1 is there overnight. We went and got haircuts then when came back went to renew car tax online and wouldn't let me. Discovered my MOT ran out mid June - cue major panic - managed to find a garage who woudl do it at one hours notice. They were great adn really pleasant even went up and down on the ramp. And it passed. Someone up there loves me.

Up v early tonight - desp for a glass of wine but think I should not - maybe save it for tomorrow after the game.

Sorry to hear about your dd pc. Very hard on both of you.

Monty100 · 26/06/2010 20:56

SCL - he's younger than me but not too young . Wow I could get naughty with him. (Stop it ASBM ).

Ewww at squirter again.

That was lucky with your car tax and MOT!

OP posts:
sincitylover · 26/06/2010 21:18

trying to paste a photo of him in - won't paste.

Yes I need to get more organised.

Monty100 · 26/06/2010 21:27

ROFL read the Q&A's

This personifies the title of this thread.
