singles thread

[brighteyes]

Are you a good looking boy or are these girls extremely ugly/skanky?

[Lithium05]

Whoa this thread was almost on page 4.

[Gre]

Just thought I'd pop in and say I should officially leave the thread (if that makes sense), as I am now engaged to my long term on-off-on American girlfriend - if any of you remember the A-ha Shake Heartbreak thread from the R&L boards about 4 years ago, a lot of our story was there.

Anyway, happy happy happy, it was all a bit unplanned, and has come as quite a shock to everyone. But I've told everyone who matters on my side, and we just need to tell her parents when I go over there next month.

So, uhm... yeah

Now we just need to work out the logistics of actually getting married! Stupid ocean and governments making things awkward...

[Goblinz]

I'm still here. Still single and happy with it.

Been having a hard time since Glasto... Another one of my mates took his own life while I was there so still a little shell shocked. The wierd thing is that I'm almost getting used to this having lost 3 mates before their time before as well as a child that was probably mine.... just a general feeling of apathy and numbness which feels wrong in a way. Was glad to see Rufus on the way out of the Glasto site as I only found out when I stopped for a break with my bags, it's nice when a hug and a shoulder turns up when you most need one.

Had an interesting trip back too, the guy driving us has gone mad.... actually mad. He's been really nasty with people a few weeks leading up to Glasto and then was fine for the festival before completely flipping out on the way home. He insisted on doing between 110 - 120 all the way back from Glasto. I was made to sit in the front (No sleep the night before, was sposed to be crashing out int he back as i was going to pop in to work for a bollocking the next day), if I fell asleep or anybody questioned his driving then he'd graze into the central reservation and send grass flying out across the motorway. It wasn't even his car...... f**k knows how we got home in one piece.

Anyway, nobody can get hold of this guy now. I was supposed to be moving in to his house a few months back but it kind of goes without saying that won;t be happening. I have a few fairly valuable things at his house though.... I also have a spare key that he doesn't know about, does anybody know if i'd be acting within the law if i went round and got my stuff while he was out?

On the plus side I'm arranging to go look round a flat very soon.

So yeh, been quite crappy the last two weeks. I probably shoudln't post in here anyway, not untill my life stops being a disaster zone.

[Goblinz]

Sorry mate. Not much else to say really

[Rufus Gwertigan]

Meh, I'll ge4t over it, not looking for sympathy really. 2 in 9 months is kinda taking the piss though!

[Goblinz]

I wasn't giving you sympathy, it was sorry as I only gave you a hug whilst I went through your pockets for your wallet. Boy was I disappointed

[Rufus Gwertigan]

LOL, suprisingly the wallet was fairly empty after Glasto. f**k knows how I spent so much money, but that's alwasy the case!

[Goblinz]

I ended up having to rifle through a tramps pockets in Manchester to raise the bus fare home. I took his special brew as well

[Rufus Gwertigan]

Which is your excuse for being found layed out, black eyed under a park bench in Manchester with a half empty can of special brew?

[Goblinz]

Oh you are one of the "half empty" brigade. I would have said half full can of special brew

[Rufus Gwertigan]

As far as special brew is concerned, half empty is the optomists opinion.

[Goblinz]

I shouldn't laugh, but I was dropped of at an interchange, and I was inside and there was a person of the street eyeing me up. He ironically had a can of brew. When the bus came I moved that fast I left my sleeping bag behind. I have asked Katster to go back and get it for me

[Rufus Gwertigan]

The thick military sleeping bag? Well at least somebody has had a good find!

I'm a "this isn't my glass. I distinctly remember it being a lot bigger. And containing a higher percentage of alcohol" kind of person

[Peevis]

I am just the same but replace glass with girlfriend.

[Radar]

I'm a "your girlfriend wants to replace you with me", kinda guy!

[Peevis]

Nah...!

[Radar]

Oh she does, and she's not even met you yet!

Unless you pulled, in which case, I've probably had her already!

[Peevis]

I'm happily not-single, and I can be confident she has never met you, nor would she accept your sweaty jigglings!

We are all laughing at your "ladies man" stylings...

Missed you!

[Rufus Gwertigan]

Aw, the Radar/Peevis double act. It's just like the Odd Couple but without the couple bit, and the humour missing, and no Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon.

I need to rethink this

edit: It's a slanging match really isn't it??

Does she know you couldn't argue your way out of a wet paper bag yet?
