Feeling invisible .....wave at a mate!

Following on from Trish's good idea (and by request) this thread is the place to play 'bag a buddy' 'wave at a mate' or 'grab someone else's grip for a minute'

The original idea from the invisble thread was that it would be a brilliant idea if people had a friend they could pair up with ....just so someone is going to wave at you when you feel down.
It needed a thread.
This is it .....................

I think chocolaye is what DP's hope for when they wrap up those ghastly jars of chocolate bodyspread ..... and call it a Christmas present!

planet, I like the odd cup of tea but I'm more a coffee drinker but you totally had me at chocolate. Total chocoholic! The Nutella thread is to torturing me as there's none in the house .

Clocks Kato

Lifts top in return

Remembers the state of her old grey bra

Lowers top quietly and sidles off hoping no one noticed.

RaisingthedeadArizona · 22/10/2013 21:41

Yay. Waves goodnight at LetsFaceTheMusic

PerpendicularVincentPrice · 22/10/2013 21:43

Reprint, 3 GC sounds lovely, I had DC in May and have a few more months off work to spend on MN.

KatoPotato, that's an interesting way to make new friends .

Does everyone have a buddy?

Pahahahahaha Reprint [ grin]

LetsFaceTheMusicAndDance · 22/10/2013 21:46

Waves goodnight to RaisingthedeadArizona and FrightRider

hawkeye21 · 22/10/2013 21:46

Right. Cannot put it off any longer. I'm off to the kitchen to do the washing up (no dishwasher) then my bed is calling. Can guarantee that at least one of the kids will wake me during the night and I desperately need my beauty sleep.

Goodnight all.

PlanetEarthIsBlue · 22/10/2013 21:47

MyOther There's a Nutella thread? How have I missed that?

RaisingthedeadArizona · 22/10/2013 21:48

Can I check. Now we've got a buddy/wave mate - what do we do next? Sorry, I bit dense today. I didn't realise people had mates on here (bit dense everyday!). So every time someone with mates starts a thread , do their mates all check in on to say hi etc?

Catacombmint · 22/10/2013 21:50

Hello everyone, I am waving!

RaisingthedeadArizona · 22/10/2013 21:54

Gives final wave at *LetsFaceTheMusic", hope you sleep well. I'm shattered (for no good reason) and off to bed. See you around me old chum

PlanetEarthIsBlue · 22/10/2013 21:56

UncomfortablyDumb · 22/10/2013 21:56

Hello, I rushed in earlier, waved, then had to rush out again. Are there rules, or are we just happy wavers? How do you get a buddywaver?

Reprint · 22/10/2013 21:57

I think Trish's idea was that people would keep an eye out for seeing a "mates" name ...and pop a comment on.
Lots of suggestions that sending a PM to a friend if you were in over your head on a thread, might be a nice option for finding backup.

I think seeing that a friend has started a thread, and joining in, is a great way to start ....but don't think there are any rules really.
As ever with MN, it will be what people make it.

Maybe a pressure group for a wave emoticon

Kleptronic · 22/10/2013 21:57

Always late to the party me. I wanna wave at someone!

IamInvisisble · 22/10/2013 21:58

I haven't got a clue who my buddies are, but I don't mind because I think we all are going to be friends.

RunFatGirlRun · 22/10/2013 22:02

Hi

I have followed this thread with great interest to an interior soundtrack of

Anyway I'm an MN nonentity and pleased to meet you.

UncomfortablyDumb · 22/10/2013 22:03

Ok, thanks Reprint if I ever fail to reciprocate a wave, its due to dizziness not rudeness btw

Waves at Kleptronic

Reprint · 22/10/2013 22:03

UncomfortablyDumb start waving
In theory, the person below and above you will buddy-up .... so Catacombmint arrived just before you
(Planet is waving at everyone, along with lots of happy wavers We are just trollops )
So you are now watching for the next poster after you, to wave at

The more I say ...the more confused I get!

Planet earth and uncomfortably dumb, you two have got to be friend because you both like lyrics.
