'Nevah gonna give you up, nevah gonna let you down, nevah gonna tell a lie and hurt youuuuuuuuu' Perhaps he'll sing to you, OWW. Fingers crossed, eh

MirandaWest · 11/04/2013 21:53

I remember where Rick Astley came from. I think.
Wonder what he is doing now....

I am possibly procrastinating.

SPsYoniTheOneAndOnly · 11/04/2013 21:54

I'm talking to lovely looking guy still. Hes asked to take me for a drink and I have said yes. Dont know when yet. Might be Saturday, just depends if the toddler goes to his dads.

KinNora · 11/04/2013 21:55

He's probably touring with that twerp from Dollar and assorted Modern Romance ponces.

MirandaWest · 11/04/2013 21:56

Here he is

KinNora · 11/04/2013 21:58

I'm sorry, has he been preserved in liquid nitrogen or something ? Bloody hell

JulietteMontague · 11/04/2013 22:13

For the rich there is liquid nitrogen, for the rest there is photoshop.

Shall we do a sweepstake on what time Telephone cancels tomorrow?

I'm going with 11 am. Date is at 4 pm. Any offers?

48howdidthathappen · 11/04/2013 22:14

He does look very odd. A tad creepy.

48howdidthathappen · 11/04/2013 22:22

You get in first at 10.30 Julliette

48howdidthathappen · 11/04/2013 22:26

Lots of typos. Oops.

JulietteMontague · 11/04/2013 22:27

Actually, maybe I should. But part of me wants to see it through because he might be fine in person.

OhWesternWind · 11/04/2013 22:28

Oh dear - my one suddenly looks a lot better, definitely not creepy!

Bit of texting with Cakey - he's a nice man. Wish I fancied him.

OhWesternWind · 11/04/2013 22:31

Juliette do you really think he's going to cancel? Does he seem a bit flaky?

KinNora · 11/04/2013 23:06

I'm going out on a limb here, he's not going to cancel. Absolutely no idea why I'm going with that, other than a desire to hear how Juliette kicks his ass in person.

Showbiz mentioning his high heel fondness again in a ' this is really jokey but I actually do wank over Louboutins ' stylee. I think I'm going to wear magenta suede peeptoes with 5" heels tomorrow - this may kill him.

ike1 · 11/04/2013 23:16

Bloody hell Kin can we swap photos PLEEEEEASE

Flipper924 · 11/04/2013 23:16

WFF, you are welcome, lovely.

OWW, at least an engineer would be able to string a sentence together. Envy

Honestly, all I'm getting on pof is "hi hunx how r u 2 nite", and on OKC a message from a man who asks that I message him if I think his personal details are compatible. As he lists his politics as right wing and hates pop culture, I've politely explained that it's a no-goer.

Hope you sleep better, tonight, Velvet. Any news yet?

Why are you expecting him to cancel, Juliette?

Rick Astley was always a bit odd-looking, but my Gran loved him.

Flipper924 · 11/04/2013 23:17

I want to see a picture of the shoes, sod Showbiz...

JulietteMontague · 11/04/2013 23:26

Well I just has a gsm message from him see you tomorrow so maybe he won't.

I'm going to be very nice but if he really is looking for barbie a domestic Goddess then he is going to be sorely disappointed.

Driving home today, roadworks with two lanes into one, crawling traffic. Another knobber assumed he could cut in front of me. He was aggressive about it. I didn't give so he started shouting. I know this because all the pedestrians turned and looked. So I put the window down, leaned out side on to him so everyone would see, blew him a kiss and drove on. I blame Telephone Grin

JulietteMontague · 11/04/2013 23:30

Flipper mostly because 'do you want to meet up then or what' is not the due respect from a Laydee when a Man is talking. He's probably thinking ball breaker he asked for it. Plus he is gsm and I have a high cancellation rate from them.

BillMasen · 11/04/2013 23:30

You know how we all have nicknames for our dates. Do you ever wonder what your nickname would be if they were on a thread like this somewhere else?

JoylessFucker · 11/04/2013 23:32

Flipper you made me spit out my peppermint tea

mercury7 · 11/04/2013 23:33

Juliette, blowing a kiss was I'm sure exactly the perfect response, I hope you did it with a lovely sweet smile :o

I hope to emulate you next time a suitable occasion arises in my life

JoylessFucker · 11/04/2013 23:34

Oh bloody hell Bill ... what a thought

JoylessFucker · 11/04/2013 23:36

Oh & forgot to say:

Velvet hope you are fast asleep now lovely girl and that you wake to a message from lovely C (I'm keeping the faith).

OWW so sorry to hear that you're going through the grieving for what might have been with LM. Its bloody tough isn't it

Flipper924 · 11/04/2013 23:38

Ah, sorry, Juliette, I hadn't read through properly and hadn't realised somehow that it was the same chap you spoke to. I'd cancel first, if I were you. I'm most impressed with how you handled road rage man.
