  • So much to say, you will be sixteen million pages on before it is typed.

    You lot are some of the most lovely, interesting and engaging people I have ever spoken to - and that goes for ALL of you. I don't always post so you might not have seen me, but I nosey through all the time and you are all great.

    It is easier to throw your hat into the ring here and say something because no-one will ever know that it is you if it comes out flat, but people won't like you less or find you less interesting in the flesh and believe me, you lot are interesting (in an entertaining and lovely way, not an *interesting* way).

    As for small talk, just think of it as the stuff that you do that lets you move on to proper talk (anyone want to talk about the weather - lol) and in any case, it is better than big talk!!

    I don't do stuff like lipstick and skirt lengths and whether I'm a size 10 in Next and a 12 in Monsoon, I think because I'm not of a 'size' to be able to join in the conversation.

    OH has just called, he is going to look at whatever this problem is, he'll be here in an hour or so.

    Means I can still play with my friends!!

    I just hate the whole idea of small talk:D

    Then talk about other stuff. So much to talk about. Honest.

    Yes, she seems like the kind of girl who likes to talk about the contradictions between classic Quantum Theory and Relativity in their descriptions of the universe.

    freaky - if I didn't know you were bloomin miles away I'd think you'd been sitting in our staffroom! the conversation then usually moves on to which lcd/plasma tv they all "need".... or which fake tan is best.
