    I sometimes wonder if we would all be friends if we met? We are such a diverse bunch. All ages, all classes, an interesting mix.

    It would be awkward to begin with but you could all slag off my taste in clothes. I think I may be maturing wardrobe wise though, I saw a skirt today and thought noooooo too short.

    Probably best to keep it online.

    It is no less real for being virtual


    Why should age or class get in the way?

    I'd love to meet the girlies for a fun do - I suspect you're right about the ages/looks thing - I'm sure we'd all be hilariously mismatched, physically. I do have physical images of people, but equally, I bet they're all wrong.

    That said, a couple of drinks and a large chocolate gateau later, I think we would all have bonded rather well... :D

    Bit like a rather aged hen party. :rotfl:

    I have been thinking more and more lately that I would love to meet you all.

    I know it sounds really sad but as time passes you have all become so real to me.

    It wouldn't work.

    But it would be a bliddy good night if it did

    I don't picture any of you as anything. You are names to me, intelligences, feelings, opinions and experiences, but without any visual element.

    I've never thought about this before, but I don't picture anyone on here looking in any particular way either.

    I can sort of picture the ones I've seen. :) But tbh not brilliantly. My memory for what epople look like is very bad. I've walked passed my family a lot, and I got really panisking when DH and I started living apart a t first, I'd be sort of...edgey on the car drive home, and would keep looking at him....seeking out sort of familiar features. :o:o

    I can't picture anyone. I am more in tune with Lydia, thoughts, beliefs, moral values. That's how I see you.

    Frankly, I think you are all wonderful.

    God, I sound really fu cking sad.

    Before the happy holiday thing, I liked you all.

    Now I see you all with a clearer eye.

    I don't think you realise how special you all are.

    Dear one, have you opened a bottle of wine? Frankly, any good we did only reflects how great you are in getting us to actually DO something instead of type commiserations.

    What's the 'happy holiday' thing?

    I clearly don't see you with a clearer eye as I have no idea what you're on about there.

    Was this another night of me off with my marking while the plot thickened...?? :question:

    Gosh I know I'm tired but how dim can I be? (Please don't answer that...)

    Oh, that happy holiday thing.

    Yes, 3 cheers for wageslave! :T:T:T
