Snape, its a deal!

I'll see your 3.5 years and raise you 4.5 years of singleness :) hence why I can't believe Cuthbert actually likes me (because not one bastard has in all that time), and have to try to resist the urge to pick holes and overanalyse it to death...!

ike1 · 09/02/2013 15:53

Oh happy pills are ACE 48 its what got me through the D.I.V.O.R.C.E. Got half my mated hooked on em too...no worries. You take care. x

House cleanish. Going out for man food.

Ike Bring on the happy pills Smile

Can't even have a drink due to antibiotics for abcess.

Fuck aint life just peachy.

lulubellaboozle · 09/02/2013 16:07

Is anyone old enough to remember Macfisheries, the master fishmongers? WELL, if they were still around I would be placing a bumper wet fish order!! Were do we start ...

snape it most definitely sounded like a postponement, you are an amazing special person and once he is over his lurgy we will be coo'ing and aah'ing over your next date Grin

velvet sooo pleased it went well with Cuthbert! It's a slow burner that is gradually gathering speed, keep the faith!

48 let Mr R&R be there for you and fuck him senseless tonight

watch all if the above, be careful love

Bant welcome back Wink

Waves to everyone else, come ice skating with Mr EA and kids but retreated to Costa after resembling an elderly tortoise on ice, not the sexy sassy DOI look I was hoping for!!

ike1 · 09/02/2013 16:09

Little warning tho..they take approx 3-6 weeks to work so make sure you use all your support netwrks 48. x

Bant · 09/02/2013 16:10

"it can't rain piss forever"

You've obviously never been to Belgium

KinNora · 09/02/2013 16:13

Or Wythenshawe

Bant · 09/02/2013 16:15

I heard (from QI) that the reason antibiotics and alcohol are discouraged was because they were first prescribed for syphilis, take several days to work, and the sufferers were discouraged from getting drunk while still infectious. Generally there's no problem. But I'm not a pharmacist so don't take that as scripture. I'm also not a second century roman bishop either, so don't take it as Scripture.

I think there are a couple of ABs that will make you very ill if you drink with them...so just check the packaging/google.

BillMasen · 09/02/2013 16:19

I'm texting moon girl. I know I bloody shouldn't but she's at a wedding with a friend, slightly pissed and flirty and I'm doing nothing to discourage it. Ever had someone who's just under your skin and you can't quite move on from? She's one of those. Where's that wet fish? X

ike1 · 09/02/2013 16:19

....or South Wales....

ike1 · 09/02/2013 16:21

Please folks dont be taken in by these limpers...as Snape found out (and I wish she had been spared) as soon as they find a better offer you will have the shit kicked in your face as they speed off in the opposite direction...spare yourselves the bother. Really.

ike1 · 09/02/2013 16:22

I am thinking of you Bill and Watch...nothing special about these folks except the art of manipulation.

Snapespeare · 09/02/2013 16:27

....no, but I did spend 20 years of my life in Glasgow, where it not only frequently rains piss, they bottle it & call it lager...

...remind me, did 'moongirl' do anything bad? I cant recall. as she's at a wedding bill it's [wet salmon en croute] Grin

KinNora · 09/02/2013 16:30

( I like Glasgow )

Isn't Moon girl just a bit of a flibbertigibbet ?

ike1 · 09/02/2013 16:30

If I remember rightly Bill, isnt she on of those that likes to keep a person dangling, bit of a gamer...do correct me..

ike1 · 09/02/2013 16:31

one (those bastarding kids have been playing on my laptop and gunging it up again...honest guv.)

ike1 · 09/02/2013 16:35

I cant stand these manipulative twots....really.....and what concerns me is that they are good at spotting people's vulnerabilities and twisting for effect....makes me right angry it does.

BillMasen · 09/02/2013 16:44

Yeah a bit of a messer abouter. Lots of flirting and miss you's, rarely carries through to getting together. Haven't seen her in person since sept other than walking past each other at work. History is we went on a few non dates (drinks) but never actually got it together.

Bant · 09/02/2013 16:46

Yep bill, people here have the measure of moongirl. She is a female YWK, a voldemort, a FrenchGirl (my own personal demon)

You can choose to extend the sweet agony, because its so sweet, but it will never be anything more than agony in the long run.

Or just say 'fuck it', and defriend and ignore. The grass is always green until you realise it's on quicksand.

Geek girl sounds good

ike1 · 09/02/2013 16:50

Yeah Bill.....if I was geek girl I wouldnt be too impressed (Ike folds arms over matronly bosom and stares hard at Bill)

BillMasen · 09/02/2013 16:51

Yes I know, you're all right. I should ignore and she'll probably go away at some point. I know nothing will come of it and its unhealthy, but it's really hard to just say no and give up on ....erm..... Well I'm not sure what I'd give up on because its neither a friendship or a relationship. A "thing".

KinNora · 09/02/2013 16:53

Bill, it's easier said than done though, innit
