The Rules

  1. Develop a thick skin;
  2. Do not invest emotionally too soon;
  3. It's all BS until it actually happens;
  4. Trust your gut instinct;
  5. People vanishing, lying and being generally weird to you are not your fault
  6. You are the prize - they should be trying to impress you
  7. If it's not fun, stop
  8. loo update is mandatory

Do a little impression for her Bant - should be a breeze for a man of your calibre.

Bant · 30/08/2013 20:42

How do you do an impression of a hedgehog? Without hair gel

KinNora · 30/08/2013 20:53

I dunno, you're the ideas man..

Flojobunny · 30/08/2013 20:53

Talk about pricks?

Flojobunny · 30/08/2013 20:54

Flojobunny · 30/08/2013 20:55

KinNora · 30/08/2013 20:56

I've just done an impression of a hedgehog and my elderly mother guessed it second first time

Bant · 30/08/2013 21:08

Heh. Send me pointers.

KinNora · 30/08/2013 21:13

She'll think you're sweet, in fact I once went out with a bloke solely because he did an excellent Scooby Doo impression.

DadfromUncle · 30/08/2013 21:24

Hi all - nothing to report as usual. Back home after a week in that London. No sign of a date for me, I knew I was a hard sell, but I didn't think it was this tricky. I guess I'll just have to wait a bit. Messaged anyone I liked the sound(in profile) of (which I admit wasn't many) now need to wait for fresh folk - looks like there's not much demand for me :-)

Bant · 30/08/2013 21:25

Aroo?

Bant · 30/08/2013 21:26

DFU - it takes time, just keep plugging away

just dropping in to say I do an excellent Scooby doo impression, and Miss Piggy too (the voice that is) Grin

KinNora · 30/08/2013 21:50

Bant quite genuinely Grin (and don't make chafe against the thread rules)

KinNora · 30/08/2013 21:56

Wine I bloody love you too, you fabulous Glaswegian.

I'm well impressed by you Tygsy (I can do Roland Rat but don't tend to broadcast the fact).

DFU there are massive great arid stretches of OD for everyone, keep fighting the good fight.

KinNora · 30/08/2013 21:58

(Don't make me chafe against the thread rules - see, a man doing a Scooby Doo impression makes me all giddy)

Bant · 30/08/2013 22:17

Ruh-roh

Flojobunny · 30/08/2013 22:50

Winey I am in awe of you. I'll be asleep by 11pm!

KinNora · 30/08/2013 23:35

Fortunately I'm in hiding from okc because I don't want to be nabbed by some callow youth who will not leave me frickin' alone or Bridget Jones, otherwise I'd be editing 'message me if you can spell and are funny' to 'message me if you can spell, are funny and do excellent Scooby Doo impressions'. It's an ill wind.

Secretservice · 31/08/2013 00:27

Can someone please explain what's wrong with me.

Bant · 31/08/2013 00:30

what's up secret?

lovelybunchofcoconuts · 31/08/2013 00:33

Yes, what's the matter?
