Oooh oooh Tuesday or Thursday for Indie!! OOOOOOH!!!!! Not that I am excited at all or anything. Oh no, not at all. He can't wait to meet me. Oh dear I think we both really like each other from messaging, it's all going so well. He is Welsh, hope he has a lovely accent. And he says he's 6'1. I do like a nice tall man. Oh god this is all going to go horribly wrong, isn't it? It's got to be Tuesday, can't have another week getting wound up and excited like this. It is getting very silly and out of hand.

I saw a headline that made me laugh the other day - Hung like Einstein, brains of a horse.

Wine do you think you're going to go and see him?

Mercury - it's the collecting model aeroplanes and soldiers that would swing it for me. Who could resist?

Hi. All is going well...Am trying not to jinx myself...

I will post soon. Just need to get through this week. Work. Nuff said

Fingers crossed for everyone and hello to newbies and lurkers (come out and mingle a little) Smile

KinNora · 17/04/2013 21:12

OWW how very exciting, is it this Thursday or next ? He's definitely sounding like a distinct possibility, there's lovely now.

Snape I have a gingham blouse - just sayin'

I've read this whole thread and you ladies are funny! Recently split up with my partner and never done online dating but you all inspired me to create a profile on OKC.
Bejesus - I have seen better autopsy photos!!! and what possesses someone to post a picture of themselves in their pants?
Not ready to date yet but it's fun looking!

Bant · 17/04/2013 21:26

Ironically, I have a habit of turning into a marmot in bed. Genuinely. Less exciting, but easier to deal with the droppings.

Hello Notsure and welcome! There are far, far worse things out there than pant pix. You have been warned.

Nora blooming next Tuesday or next Thursday. Cannot wait til Thursday. Crash tuna required here, carp is woefully insufficient. How is Showbiz getting on with tickling your fancy?

Snapespeare · 17/04/2013 21:52

nora yee-haw!

notsure hello! Welcome!

wine whoop! :-)

I am done in through taking DS1 to CAHMS today (battle to get him there.) and finally got psychiatric and ASD referrals. I'm wiped out. Nameless has ear infection, so we curled up last night and watched game o thrones & just chatted, but it was very lovely. Not all about the old P I V oh no.

KinNora · 17/04/2013 21:58

Hello Notsure as OWW says, pant pix are merely the foothills of the very steep OD learning curve.

OWW - bugger, eh, next week, mind you it'll fly by in reality, it's just the prospect of having to wait that's hard to cope with. ( I'm ordering a bigger fish ).

Showbiz is tickling my fancy really rather well, he's clearly got access to some freaky 'Ensure Nora Is All Distracted and Frisky' guide book

I bet a MarmoBant would be a huge hit with the laydeees.

KirstyWirsty · 17/04/2013 22:07

Got a date in a champagne bar with theSalesDirector (44) tomorrow night

juliette Dutch sounding good

bant what is a marmot like in bed???

Sounds good Kirsty - does he sound like a good possibility?

And sounds very good Wine as well.

I always think of Showbiz as urbane Nora. It's funny how you get these pictures of people in your mind.

KirstyWirsty · 17/04/2013 22:51

Dunno OWW we will see

Also chatting to MrLogistics all evening again .. May be meeting him on Friday lunchtime

You will be fine the days will fly in

SPsYoniTheOneAndOnly · 17/04/2013 23:05

I've just made lemon and chocolate buns. I think I will be huge by the end of the week.

Going to a Chinese restaurant tomorrow with Sparky. I'm very excited. Still talking all day constantly too, hes always in touch first. Lets hope hes not another nob!

Kirsty A champagne bar? Ohh sounds nice.

Wine This sexual intercourse you speak of? Well whats that? Grin

KinNora · 17/04/2013 23:16

Kirsty champagne bar sounds like an excellent date venue.

Wine date three with Showbiz will be at the beginning of May, when he ventures down south. Entirely intentional double entendre.

OWW urbane is an excellent description of him, urbane and slightly raffish. We were talking about degrees of ambidextrousness (probably not an actual word) and he was saying that he is left handed at tennis and golf but uses his right when he shoots a pistol and does archery which made me laugh out loud - he is a Man of The World.

SP phwoarrrr at the lemon and chocolate buns, good luck with Sparky tomorrow.

SPsYoniTheOneAndOnly · 17/04/2013 23:22

Kin I'm planning on winning him over with them Grin

VelvetSpoon · 18/04/2013 10:23

hope all is well and good luck to those with dates later :)

It is DS2s birthday today, my baby is growing up! Other than that my life trundles on in its habitually mundane way...at least the sun is shining :)

Movingforward123 · 18/04/2013 10:29

hi everyone :)

welcome not sure

wine so jealous

well tomorrow night I'm going to a singles event yay. Any tips on how to get talking to guys i like if there are any? I usually wait for guys to speak to me, but I might try to be procative, as I want some of what wine is having :)
