    You're not exactly selling him calling him Mr Curmudgeonly. Bit like me calling the landlord 'Mr pick up tarts' aka. Mr Kipling.
    :rotfl:Mr GG thinks it's a compliment when I call him Mr Curmudgeonly (and yes he does know what it means ;))
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    My ex-boss thought it was a compliment when he called me Garrulous. Chatty he thought. 'To talk a lot about nothing of any consequence' in reality!

    Could he not just have said chatty:D? I usually get 'challenging' - mmm...
    We were talking personality types the other day & most folk seemed to think I was an extrovert...that surprised me!

    It's Saturday & DS is here so I'll be off to stand in a footie field somewhere....

    Have flat full of daffs as I bought loads then blokey came round with more:D they are my favourites though.

    This weekend is dedicated to the washing pile - where it is all coming from I'm not sure... Might go to cinema later as we have a 2 for 1 thing but not sure there's anything both DS and I would like.

    Have a lovely weekend everyone:D

    Well, I'll see what I can do, but there's nothing going on at the moment - I am too snowed under with all the other bits of my life. Did meet a single bloke the other weekend, though (friend of a friend of a friend, not OD, and evening out in big group, not actual date) who seemed to like me, but he turned out to be, err, rather a lot younger than me. It was a fun evening, but I don't think it's going anywhere.

    Age is only a number Lois - if you like each other that's all that matters.

    I have been mainly studying today due to the distraction of lovely man for most of the weekend and DS's footballing activities. Being stuck on sofa next to mother's day chocs is not wise :o
