Oh Shiney you got your revenge ten fold. Well done. What a knob. I feel like calling this story into the local paper to get it published and then they can run a search for the "MYSTERY PENGUIN MAN" - see if he owns up to it.

mychildrenarebarmy · 24/04/2009 22:43

lol. I REALLY hope he has put it together. Thank you for updating Shine.

ChippingIn · 26/04/2009 09:00

I really hope he has put it together, but fear he might not have He's not really the brightest tool in the shed is he? The chik tik was a joke with us, it's just something he says in a normal way. What if he just thinks you are now seeing the light and are eating fish and aren't veggie anymore!!...

What a shame you didn't mention you were sharing your fish supper with Jane!!!

I would be soooooooooo tempted to send something else to him so I would KNOW, he knows....

Twat of the first order...... you are rude... well, PMSL.

Oh great response to him Shiney!! You had the last word and a funny one at that! What a cheeky git accusing YOU of being rude!

Thanks for updating ... and for telling us in the first place. Kept us amused for ages. I hope your next bloke isn't such cretin - you deserve better.

hippipotamiHasLost20Pounds · 27/04/2009 12:36

Absolutely brilliant
Well done shiney!!!

Ohforfoxsake · 27/04/2009 12:53

fan-flipping-tastic

OMG what a twat, thanks for update.....men be warned lol

Rialentless · 27/04/2009 22:21

thanks for update shiney, and also for explaining your job - I was imagining you as am animal welfare officer (penguins should NOT have relationships with human beings... unless it's exclusive)

are you tempted to ring him and ask what it was that "happened recently" and deny all knowledge?

hooray for penguingate

tigerdriver · 27/04/2009 22:26

Hiya Shiney - just read the update. Loving it. Just think, if you hadn't been anything to do with "something that recently happened" you'd be very after that message. Love your "chick tik" reference, how did you manage to get that in?

Maybe some kind soul has pointed him to this thread. Maybe he's feeling a bit of a plonker.

Bet he steers clear of big black'n'white birds for a bit

ChippingIn · 27/04/2009 23:49

Excellent

So finally he's getting there?

How about replying... 'Sorry I missed your call. I was out, just went to get some Fish and Chips with a new friend Jane, also got a chocolate biscuit - penguin I think. Now, what was the thing that happened recently???'... and slip in this link [ your song]

ChippingIn · 27/04/2009 23:50

your song

BillSilverFoxBuchanan · 28/04/2009 00:42

I can't believe that it's taken him this long to figure it out!!

Bloody hilarious

TrillianAstra · 28/04/2009 08:47

"I don't think that was a great thing to do"!?

What, and chatting up and arrangeing to go on a date with a "wrong number" was a perfectly reasonable thing to do?

Shineon you are really a legend and you deserve better than that twat gentleman.

Glad that your workmates enjoyed it as well. This guy must be the most well known, anonymous bloke in the country

BonzoDoodah · 28/04/2009 14:49

Exactly Trillian ... HE doesn't think it was a great thing to do ... he who asked for exclusvity! PMSL at the plonker! It took him how long?
Thanks for more fun Shiney!!
