snape you and nameless are brilliant.

See how wise you were not giving him a name!!

VelvetSpoon · 07/04/2013 22:07

Snape Envy. that is all.

Meanwhile, am seriously biting my tongue. Someone I know on FB has posted a photo of himself looking an utter plank in a Dappy hat. I am ITCHING to comment and ask when he joined Ndubz . But he has so little sense of humour I doubt it would be appreciated!

Beyonce - halo ike

I'm in tune with my beyonce side right now. This means I have to go knock fuck out of my punk rock ukelele to balance out the universe. :).

KinNora · 07/04/2013 22:10

Oh go on Velvet - dare ya !

I get the feeling that Ike isn't a huge Beyoncé fan ...

( Elbow did a version of Independent Women - I bloody love it )

That my darling readers should read ...Hey Mr Marcus POF

VelvetSpoon · 07/04/2013 22:14

Kin please don't dare me, I am a terrible one for dares!

Don't mind a bit of Beyonce/Destiny's Child...quite like blasting 'Survivor' out, reminds me muchly of how I felt when I finally got shot of the Evil Ex!

Scrazy · 07/04/2013 22:14

Velvet, hope you can get something sorted soon but you do seem really cool with it all.

Snape, it is terrifying isn't it? But it seems like he feels the same and you have already established that you are 'going out' and exclusive so no need to rush to the next stage, just enjoy getting closer and to know each other more.

ike1 · 07/04/2013 22:15

That Kin does nearly rival Lubes' dancing cats video...

KinNora · 07/04/2013 22:22

Ah gwan, gwan, gwan Velvet you know you want to ( that's my Mrs Doyle impression and I, too am unable to resist a dare - it's an illness)

Ike that always makes me laugh, every time I watch it.

Flipper924 · 07/04/2013 22:31

Thank you all, for the singing and for Hugh. He thanks you all as well Wink

Snape, aww, I think you might be going a bit soft. It won't be long before he gets a name....

Velvet, you have to. Please. But not if you're going to fall out with anyone.

The Fall were the first ever band I saw playing at the bandstand in the park (!!!!) and they are coming back here later this month and I have no-one to go with. So very sad.

The very very head honcho at the place I work is also called Mark E Smith, but sadly it's not the anarchic lyrical genius, just a sad twat from Warwick.

Cakey has just texted to say thanks so much for a lovely evening with a lovely lady. I, on the other hand, am sending messages to my engineer who is my current hope for ending this horrible period of singledom and no sex. . . He is not bad at all for 51, not bad at all for my age either apart from a bit less hair. And he is also keen but definitely has something about him. Help, what do I do now????

CastroIsDead · 07/04/2013 23:00

wow you lot move quick.
so tonight i was going to start a profile on pof but instead i have been texting someone i met today. he's definatley not 'the one' but he wants to take me out for dinner so i might let him

CastroIsDead · 07/04/2013 23:02

sp i had my 3yo ds with me when i met the guy so it can happen

MirandaWest · 07/04/2013 23:08

What was wrong with Cakey?

Keep messaging Engineer I think :)

ike1 · 07/04/2013 23:14

Yeah ...what was wrong with Cakey OWW?

OhWesternWind · 07/04/2013 23:16

Cakey is a very, very nice man who deserves a very, very nice woman who is not me. So cliched, but there is no spark. There's no naughtiness in this bloke. Sex would be very boring missionary position every time and he would be so horribly grateful. Can't do it. The Engineer has a nice glint in his eye and is also keen, but has a lot more about him and could, I think, turn out to be a bit of a filthy bugger in bed, which is a prerequisite here. Nice but dirty, that's the thing.

OhWesternWind · 07/04/2013 23:17

Not that I talked to Cakey about sex, but you can just tell.

ike1 · 07/04/2013 23:23

ooooooKay fair dos OWW.

ike1 · 08/04/2013 00:05

Aw Mr H sent me a lovely message saying I was more sexy and gorgeous than my photos do me justice..such a shame...nevermind.,

mercury7 · 08/04/2013 00:06

wish i could 'just tell'
truly i am always wrong & never know what to expect! :(

OhWesternWind · 08/04/2013 00:06

The Engineer Isn't online tonight as he's away with his children, but I've sent him a message strongly hinting that we meet up. Never done that before, feel a bit forward. I usually lurk around passively waiting for the bloke to get his arse in gear. Hope we can sort something out for next week.
