I used to think that I was a good writer. But, since joining MN, I have to face the sad realisation that this is untrue. If I comment on a thread, it dies, and if I start a thread, no one answers! I give up. I know I am a good reader, I will stick to that from now on....

Roomie you can't withdraw your membership.
that would mean that the thread became a "posterkiller"Shock

not happening. not under my watch!

Roomfor1more · 02/06/2013 21:50

Kay kay I'm not going though if I do hear any strains of 'I Love You, You Love Me...' I'm gone faster than the Greggs delivery van past a comprehensive, right!!!!

Ummmm, "Hi"

{Shuffles round on feet, hands behind back, wondering if she can join her first every nearly quiche}

Small wave.

The last 2 threads I started have both ended up being total bunfights. One aimed at me (horrid - I hadn't deserved it honest) and the other derailed and turned into an in depth discussion about YR education by 2 opposing parties.

You look fun. Please can I play?

Thumbtack · 02/06/2013 21:51

blue that is ace!

zen aww, come on, you got to tell us now!

roomie have a glass for me will you?

vix still jealous of you living in NZ

Roomfor1more · 02/06/2013 21:53

Fish Welcome come on in and shut the door! Grin

Thumb I like Malibu too much to my sister's horror. She keeps telling me Marty McFly is going to bring me back to the 80's with my love for all alcohol that was cool then. Well I go back to '85 will I be 5 again??? Confused

Thumbtack · 02/06/2013 21:54

Hi Fingers can I call you that?

I've got to go for now, but you can keep my seat warm for me. Welcome to the Inthreadibles!

Malibu is luurverly. Spesh with pineapple and crushed ice. So easy to drink, many a naughty thing done on Malibu!

Roomfor1more · 02/06/2013 21:59

Pernod YUCK The gastric pyrotechnics after that one night, never again. I can feel my gag reflex quiver as I type it. AND tequila doesn't make you happy, like the song, it makes you lose a day and part of your brain is still wafting up and down Prince's St in Edinburgh ''sad face'' Wink

amazingmumof6 · 02/06/2013 22:00

Roomie are you my DS5?
he says "kay kay kay!"Grin

Blueandwhitelover · 02/06/2013 22:01

hello Fishfingers :-)

Thanks for compliments (shameless boast-I have been published twice -for much better poetry though I promise)

Going off myself now, not looking forward to tomorrow,I predict tears before bedtime.

Will see you all for quiche tomorrow xx

amazingmumof6 · 02/06/2013 22:02

ZenOfPetals · 02/06/2013 22:04

Zen are you going to let on? If I tell you mine, you tell me yours?

< with a nearly 8 mo ds >

Didn't train to be one, it just kinda happened.

Anyway g'night y'all

blue good luck tomorrow!

Thumbtack · 02/06/2013 22:10

I trained to be a wildlife biologist and did 10 years in conservation before becoming landlady btw

Anyway g'night y'all again.

FishfingersAreOK · 02/06/2013 22:19

Night then.....

DuchessOfAvon · 02/06/2013 22:49

Please, can't I keep calling you Amazmum rather than Zing? I will swap to Zing if you prefer it but I rather like the alter ego of Amazmum

The Pimms is wearing off now and I have a wee headache gathering behind my eyes. Malibu is just plain wrong.

I think blue writes The Rhyme Rocket.

And with that, good night.

amazingmumof6 · 02/06/2013 22:57

I don't mind what you call me as long as you don't call me late to dinner but I was given the NN Zing by a lovely Nobdie and just love it!
(it's an honour)

Roomfor1more · 02/06/2013 23:13

shudders Rhyme Rocket. Imagine being those kids who dress up as the rhyming words in years to come???

I think I'm stewed?! Dh is watching The Tourist on Sky, what a heap of crappola. Even Johnny can't save this one and I've watch Edward Scissorhands load of times along with Sleepy Hollow.

Does that spelling of scissors look right to ye???!!

amazingmumof6 · 03/06/2013 00:38

still no [choc].

VixZenFenchell · 03/06/2013 05:05

Yup, that's how I spell scissors :) Hi Fish! Seems a nicer nn than Fingers which reminds me of a sneak thief in bad fiction :)

Apparently the boys are all waiting for me before they start the movie /wave
(you wouldn't have been jealous of NZ today - cold &grey & cloudy!)

Blueandwhitelover · 03/06/2013 07:51

Ate all the toblerone in preparation for the 21 week diet that starts today, ready for the holiday :-)

Rhyming Rocket-my kids are grown and I've not heard of it-is it worth a youtube later?

Beautiful day outside and I would like to stay here in my bubble.

Have a good day all xx

amazingmumof6 · 03/06/2013 08:14

blue mine are school age, but I have no idea what Rhyming Rocket is!

DuchessOfAvon · 03/06/2013 08:14

Oh heavens, blue no - its execrable. I didn't mean to put a slur on your poetry-writing capabilities - you are waaay better than the Rhyme Rocket, really.

Vix - I have relatives in NZ - and finally i get to taunt them about our nice weather!

VixZenFenchell · 03/06/2013 08:28

I've not heard of Rhyming Rocket either.

Did you get any chocolate, Zing? I have far too much downstairs - bought it the other day in a fit of "diet-starts-tomorrow-ness" and have sadly just weighed myself. Ah well, it's in sealed packets, it keeps. If I could share it round the thread I would!

7.30 - ridiculous time to be tucked up in bed already (leccy blankie on max!) - but going to watch some tv with DH before dozing off. If I stay awake long enough.... Have a good day all, enjoy your sunshine!

PS Thumb have always wanted to know - how do you get to go on holiday? What happens to your pub? Do you get friends in to keep it open?
