    You're lovely LIR.
    What a fab user name...best so far.;)

    I've met a few off the board. Don't know what they thought of me though :o.

    The bit I like is the completely different types of lives/jobs we all have...even those that don't give away anything personal.

    The people I interract with day to day and my Real Life friends are totally different to you lot.:D It's nice.

    I've somehow missed this thread, but have had a very brief scan. Just to clarify, is there a pub meet somewhere or is this all hypothetical? Wouldn't want to miss some sort of social do. I'd feel very left out.

    I thought we were talking about it yesterday? Maybe thread got deleted as my tick wasn't on this one. Mind you my ticks aren't on any at the mo.

    I think it's hypothetical....and you are very very far away up north.

    I met moanymoany + hubby who then left after a spat last Xmas over this board.
    And another female who posted a dilemma over selling one of her 2 properties. She got some advice but some stick too (confessing to owning 2 props can be tricky on this board sometimes).
    Turned out she used to work in offices above me and used to shop with us. She popped in a few times for a chat.#

    It was she that prompted me to ID my gender as she thought I was a bloke.

    I can kind of relate to you earlier aspergers story, the one where you didn't get the message to leave x
    :(
    You're really not being very nice.
    I hope your bum fur clogs up with clingons.
