LMAO - reminds me of the look on these teens face when OH dropped me at a cash point and I had Linkin Park absolutely pounding from the speakers - and yelled at him 'Dont turn that back to Real Radio - I'm LISTENING to it'! bless them - they gave me a round of applause and shouted 'way to go, gran'!!!!!

A poster on one of the other forums once told me that they pictured me as an older lawyer-type gent sitting in an office lined with learned tomes.

They only got one thing right: I am older but a semi-literate woman, with long blonde curly hair who's rarely spotted wearing anything other than black, usually sporting one of my favourite doom or stoner rock-band T-shirts, a hoody and biker boots.

I'll be the one hefting a bass guitar on the bus. Or waiting for my gig to start, drinking pints of iced water because I refuse to play anything other than 100% straight.


Blondish hair at present. Lots of eyeliner (I reckon Amy Winehouse got the flicky thing idea from me when she was at school near my old stomping ground :whistle:).

Jeans. Blue, black, green. Lots of tops, mostly black. DMs or black suede boots with crepe soles, or trainers. leather jacket.

Oh yeah, nose ring, helix piercings and a dragon tattoo on my back. Often reading a sheet of music.

You're all invited to my next party!

I'm the one chasing the poor petrified-looking boy with the YSs round Mr Ts at around 9pm.... or the one who goes on trips to other towns JUST to look for books in the CSs.....I'm also the oldish one wandering happily but slightly drunkenly around rock clubs in Glasgow all alone but for a vodka and coke and a Jager shot....:o

I'd be totally unnoticeable, except perhaps when rock music is playing in my car, at a volume that would make people think I'm old enough to know much better!

We are going to the Isle of Wight on holiday this year we will look out for you!!Or should that be listen out for you?

What we used to do back in the CB Radio days was organise an 'Eyeball' where people we used to chat to on air would meet up, seen some right old loons back in the day, can't imagine what nut case's lurk on the internet, best keep to type-talk

Loving this thread.
My DH used to have a CB radio when he was young(er!)
He arranged, as described above ,an eye ball meeting with someone he had chatted to.When he peddled down the road of the said meeting and saw who he had been chatting to he looked the other way and carried on peddling!!
She was a mother at the school our daughter went to and I was always tempted to go and tell her but my DH made me promise that I wouldn't:rotfl:

Average height, veery well padded figure, longish !greying hair, look a bit puddled and possibly lost, !most of the time. Dressed in cs clothing, with absolutely zero sense of style, often wearing totally mismatched clothing, no makeup, no jewellery, and a pair of crocks or flyflot type shoes permanently attached to my feet.

Walk stiffly, often limping and always in pain so !may be seen hobbling along with my walking stick or occasionally crawling around the supermarket floor! Early/approaching mid forties, but sound geriatric i'm sure and certainly look it, i'm sure.

Love music, but can no longer listen to it due to chronic head pain, also light as well as sound intolerant these days. Wear shades in all seasons due to photosensitivity, i'm not trying to look like an old ex-rock star, honest! Squint a lot, park the car badly, even in the larger disabled bays. I'm the driver who cant read road signs and drive at the same time. Lane control is not my strong point...especially on roundabouts. Chunter to myself when out of my comfort zone, so mostly anytime i am not at home or somewhere i know well.

Can be found perusing charity shops, supermarket 'reduced' sections, doctors surgery, second hand stores and if well enough, in the garden...but i am mostly a homebody so you'd have a pretty hard time finding me....unless i am online

Whilst I do dress and act more mature than your average student, I look like most other 20-something young women. And probably look like i'm well off or have a fair few credit cards! But my nice clothes were all ebay/sales/CS, my jewellery's from when I got staff discounts and freebies, I do my own higlights (and nails, extensions, tan etc when I bother- no claws or creosote here though!). The posh make up and perfume I'm faffing with in the loo was a work freebie or another bargain.

You might notice I start walking faster and grinning the closer I get to Lidl, and by the time I've reached the special offer aisle I let out a little squeak or shake my hands like excited wallace!

just wandered by this thread...and have been hooked. love it!

i'm the crazy that wanders around humming to herself and smiling at everyone. You will usually find me in the CS browsing for clothes for my girls or in the habadasery looking for bits & bobs to jazz up our existing wardrobe. or in the library reading the papers & perusing the books to help with the OS way of life. But always with my black book in hand - it is my life - holds everything from size of windows to feet sizes - you never know what you will find in a CS!!

What a brilliant idea! I'm forever forgetting the kids she sizes cos they change all the time (and there are five to remember!)
