Nice people thread part 3- Nice as pie

misskool, best wishes. I wonder if you can take a break soon? Don't burn out.

Sorry to hear things are being tough, misskool. Hope you get a break soon. And don't worry about your anonymity - all the nice people are much too nice to out you.

Nope, false alarm.

It turns out Mrs McT had slipped nearly £75 worth of cosmetics into the trolley when I was off in search of a haggis.

I think I need one of those. Every time, without fail, EVERY time, I get out of my car and touch the door to close it, I get an electric shock. I think it's the nylon seat fabric.

To avoid that, get different shoes, or else touch the ground with your hand (or knee or shoeless foot or whatever) before you touch the car to shut the door. OK, that's not very practical, I know, but it would prevent shocks. Perhaps you should try fixing a wire onto the sole of your shoes that runs up the back of the heel to your ankle?? I think I have lost the plot here. Maybe it will make someone giggle, so perhaps it's not entirely useless. [/witter]

I know your first name, lir, but have no idea as to your surname, so wouldn't be able to trace you online.

I thought of suggesting a guess real life names conversation but I couldn't see it ending well - I am both a not very famous film star and also share bits of my name with two other famous people who are often linked so I can hide quite successfully 'in plain site' on google (119 million results).

at one point you had my address though. Who needs surnames when you have an address? The hit man would probably find my address and forename useful enough

fwiw I actually use a nickname in PMs. It was a deal I made with dh when I first started communicating online. Its ok, it make sense, sometimes dh calls me that, and anyone whose had an email from me realises why . I also have two other monikers. I had the name I was born with, which I haven't used for years, and a name I sometimes worked under. It all gets very confusing and I sometimes wonder what the postman thinks.

it made signing up to face book, which I did once for five minutes, weird...when it was finding people that I might know I realised how confusing it could be for all involved.

Shoes, heels... you're not from round 'ere are you.

Fake crocs, every day. Inside or out. Going out, or going to Morrisons. On the beach, everywhere.

All you need is my first name for the porno to come up.... obviously the front jacket of that video IS me... but not in the film and the film's not about me

I always look 5'10 and slim in a bikini... always.

You're not alone John. In the realisation that I already have way too many items of clothing, including some I doubt I'll ever wear (:mad:) or fit into (:o) again!

I'm approaching 4 years of "no buying any new clothes, & no-one is to buy new clothes for birthday/christmas presents for me!". I've discarded way less than I thought I would, had 2 tshirts given to me, & really can't see how I'll need to buy anything for (gulp) 10 years!:eek:

People frequently give socks when they can't think of a gift. I have about 10+ unopened pairs of socks, as I am still wearing the ones which haven't worn out.

OH is having a clothes crisis at the moment as his body shape has changed a bit now he has hit 47. Muscly/manual labour type frame but a bit of a belly growing and the fashion is to tuck shirts in now so no skimming over the round with a long-line shirt any more.

For example, he has to go to 2 places tomorrow and the dark jeans/tee combo not appropriate but neither is the suit/shirt one ...needs a smart yet casual (which is a bit of a contradiction) and be 'on trend for his age' because of the types he is meeting with.
He got lucky with an Oswald Boateng suit from TK Maxx for 250 that fit's him like it was made for him (and has the original customer number in it as it was made to order then never collected).

The sales are good this year as there is a lot of surplus stock floating around the High St (weather has played a big part in slumpy sales this season) so we may have to hit the shops at some point and go for good quality on markdown a la Generali.

evening all, been a nightmare of a week and things are not looking so great

Not in a personal way as PN, and IM but just in a, I need a break and want to get off the hamster wheel moment.

hope everyone is well, been reading bits and bobs, just not enough energy to reply and just too darned tired...

and googling my RL name is me so a few of you that have it, please don't share

Chin up Miss K. Are you getting a holiday or time off from work this summer? That may help the feeling but the hamster wheel is sometimes a feeling from inside oneself when you are driving yourself to hard.

I would love to change my user name but when I joined here I didn't know about quirky usernames and just used initials.....my real name is an F name but I never use it. Always been known by my C name.

I would change it to London Lady 123 if I could.


The mealtimes thing is interesting. We always have dinner together, breakfast is as and when each person get's up.


:rotfl::rotfl:Got to read a metro today and that e-mail from the MIL was funny but for the family it must be soooo embarrassing.
