Hey !!


This is a not quite sober ('cos I've been at the port) squeaky wishing you all a lovely time and all that rubbish. :)

Thanks to good net friends met here on MSE I'm all sorted out with msn and skype and I even have voice and video...

..for msn just click on the msn (dolly thing. (ME?? A dolly?)) below my avatar


<--- over there (Really. Right there)


..and we can all have a bet on whose roasties are crispiest...


It's no contest really, they are going to be somebody's who sez "MINE".

    Squeaky, God bless you my good and inspirational friend, and all the very best condiments of the season ;) , and may I just say that one of these days we will get you that £50 poster of the month award!

    Also, been meaning to say for some time - your signatures have kept me in hilarity all year, they are the funniest for miles. I especially liked the one about wives (except I can't remember it now) and hope it comes around again!

    Merry hic Christmas hic and a very Happy hic New hic Year!

    I just love this place, and especially this board, so a seasonal thanks to everyone who makes it what it is :xmassmile. May your vinegar never vanish! xxx.
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    Erm...

    Wives marry their husbands expecting to be able to change them, and they CAN'T... and husbands marry their wives expecting them NOT to change...

    .. and they DO :(

    It wasn't that one, although that's quite good too, but around last August/September you had a really witty one. Maybe about marriage? I know it was one that could offend an easily offended wife, but I thought it was brilliant.

    Now that's given you something to struggle to recall through the haze - sorreeeeee :beer: .

    Oh... and I shared the POM with Judi whe we first did the Old Style Recipe Index... so I hardly expect it to come round again soon... and I have to say... I'm not the only helpful poster on MSE by a long chalk...

    ..REALLY...


    ..there are a whole humungously large numbers of very helpul posters among the MSE members and I do not now, and never have, considered myself as VERY helpful. My talents and expertise are limited.

    I just does me best guv. Honest guv. :)

    Sheesh! For crying out loud this is not fair...

    .. bacause my collection of quotes quips and bon mots is now over three thousand seven hundred...

    ..BUT

    ..I have them all collected in a magic database thingy, wot I wrote, so if you can think of a KEY word that might help find it... I'll cut and paste them into an answer...

    ..over to you.

    Blimey that brings back some memories. Me on the boards, you on the indexes occasionally swapping roles. Have a wonderful break, and i hope the new year will be a happy one for you.

    Cheers mate.

    Okay fellow Old Stylers, I'm looking for help here. Can anyone remember the siggie I am thinking of. It made me grin every time I read it.

    I can't even think of a key word just now (joining you on the hooch a bit early, I confess), but I will wrack my brain cell :think: .

    I'm glad you had recognition for the indexes, they are the icing on the cake (now where do I find that one?) :p . xx

    We have quite a few older threads on icing...

    ..honest.

    I just haven't got a clue where they are right now. Try using the search facility (rotten as it is) or the MEGA index, or somewhere... maybe google...

    ..

    ..but it's wa-a-ay too late to ask me, honest pet :)
